WILLIAM FARNUM Is PROS
PECT0R IN NEW PICTURE

In Caroline Lockhart's story, THE
Man From Bitter Roots" William Far
mum takes the part of a miner, Bruce
Burt.
Bruce starts out on a hunt for the
sister of his former partner in the
mining camp, to give her the share of
gold dust due to her In the search V.
Sprudell who finds the girl, gives her
$500, which, he says, is the share due
her from the mine, and starts the Bit
ter Root Mining Company for him
self
Then Bruce turns up. He has learn
ed of the scheme of the INSCRIPTIONS
financier, and he is determined to foil
it, He has trouble in raising the
money to carry through his own pro-
ject, but finally manages to do So
Then he finds the girl, tells her the
true story, which Sprudell had not
done, and forms a partnership with
her. They determine to fight Sprudell
and regain their rightful ownership of
the mine.
A new plant goes up on the Bitter
Roots Mining company property 1t
belongs to Bruce and Helen. But it
is scarcely completed when a devas-
tating fire sweeps the land, complete
ly destroys the building and leaves the
place in ruins. Everything has gone
against Bruce He even learns that
Sprudell and his scheming partners
had arranged the fire themselves. He
writes to Helen in despair.
AS a great sacrifice, Helen goes to
Bruces father, a wealthy ranchman,
from whom he had been estranged.
The purity and goodness of the girl,
and her earnest pleas for the son, win
the old man, and in the end father
and son reunited. the Bitter Roots
Mining company is re-established and
Helen becomes general manager of
more things than a mine.
