Sucker or Knocker, Which?
With which tribe do you prefer to swim? A little
lecture by one of our citizens on fascinating subject

gold; If you have gold you have
money itself.
The possibilities In gold mining
putting n man on his financial feet
should stir the pulse of everyone am
bilious for the possession of money
Duty to self and society demands that
we have money, and gold mining
is the one best chance. I am not
expressing my own opinion only but
am fully corroborated Cecil Rhodes,
one of the greatest and richest OF
modern men, in a public address in
London, just before his last trip TO
Africa, where he builded an en-
pire, said: II have made a great
study of question of mining and have
statistics, not only of Great Britain but
of the whole world. carefully com.
piled, so that ] might not be In
frror. l speak advisedly, and say
what every man who has investigate
knows to be the truth, that less
money Is lost in mining and invest
ments in mining stocks than in any
other business or investment on
earth. Especially is this true OF
gold and silver mines from the metal
of which blooms the everlasting dol
lar. Buy mining stocks, buy Il low
when II has doubled or quadrupIed
sell IT, Buy another mining stock;
pursue this policy and before you
dream of II you VIII find that your
dollars have increased TO thousands
your thousands to millions"
Could any thing be stronger? Read
the last lines over again, before you
dream of It you'll find your dollars
have increased TO thousands and
Your thousands to Millions" That
explains 1t. That's now they got oil
these millions. Not by being smart.
They were only suckers and bought
mining stocks. They listened to willy
tales of the mine promoter, who, ac-
cording to knockers, was trying TO
rob them, and they let him sell them
still more of the 'no-good mining
shares-and then before they could
dream of it, they awoke TO fnd
their dollars had increased to thous-
ands and their thousands to mil
lions" Av..
Can any man of sense reconcile
the vaporizings of an irresponsible
Knockers imagination with such In
disputable truths proven fby,-ekpefi-
ence? It's a waste of time, to listen
TO knocker. and a probable loss OF
fortune to permit anything he says
to have the least bit of Influence on
your doings.
You may not be acquainted with
them personally, or know of them in

How did they get IL? From whom
did they get it? Mines are the foun-
dation of riches, - slIss.
Maybe you are overlooking some-
thing; possibly the knocker isn't the
friend he pretends TO be. Anyhow
think 1t over 1t may break clear TO
you that what others are doing Is in
your power equally easy. TO accom-

You may think that ] am harpinS

yourself the door to millions OF dol-
lars? Answer can they? Is II NOT

alone, often half the hattie won?
You know this IL so In other things,
then why not in this?Is there any
sensible reason.
We present the OPPORTUNITY,
and no man can know what oppor-
tunity holds for him until he has
gone to the door and demanded his
due. Fortune plays no fayorites; IL
the man is too scared or lacks enough
energy to come for his own, she ia

If the knocker has been getting IN

want TO tell you---that though he may
holler his head off-gold mining win

progression will continue to revolve,
the demand for gold will increase and
demand will bring supply.
Don't imagine that the dying out
of the mining boom excitement meahs
