THE PROMOTER.
His Success Means Fortune for Him
sele and His Clients.
Denver Mining Record)

Denver Mining Record)
The promoter is builder. He
takes something that is barren, so
far as production is concerned. and
he undertakes to make an actual pro-
Queer of wealth. This calls for some
thing other than argument. In min
ing, it differs so greatly from mercan-
tile lines that one can scarcely esti-
mate the divergence in facts and re-
suits. The mercantile line is built up
not by creating what is not apparent,
but by developing that which is
known to exist--a demand for GER
tain goods. This calls for advertis-
ing, for special sales and for schemes
eye.
The promoter assumes. from indi-
cations, that he can make a mine or
develop an oil producer. He has. first
of all, to secure money: then to pro-
mote the interests of his corporation
by actual development of the property
He may know little about the techni-
cal features of mining or drilling. He
may be unschooed in the ways OF
milling, but he knows how to get good
capable men around him--and that is
the important thing in mine promo
ton.
One success may mean fortune for
both the promoter and his clients. 1t
may mean success such as the mer-
camille lines could never bring,
The promoter occupies a peculiar
position. He is a builder--a creator.
And in his line. he has no superiOrs.
No one can jump in from other
branches of bushes sand succeed In
connecting capital and opportunity to
the betterment of both.

MEDICINAL GARDENS.
What the Commonest Vegetables Do
For Your Liver,

Every vegetable garden is a medi-
cine chest recognized by physicians as
of considerable value in the treatment
Of diseases. Onions, for example, con-
tain sulphur oil and are recommended
for insomnia and as an aid to gastric
digestion. They also help to allay rheu-
matte pains.
Turnips and parsnips have peculiar
oily principles which are of value as
an aperient and diuretic. They are
also claimed to be good for coughs and
hoarseness. Carrots are useful for cor
recting arrangements of the liver.
They are excellent as dressing for
painful wounds and swellings.
The tomato exercises medicinal ef-
fects not completely explained by the
presence of alkaline salts. There is
principle present which, in a concen-
trated state, produces salvation and a
free stimulation of the liver.

Do You Ride?

Perhaps because of the recent pre-
paredness movement among women
there are more women riding horse
back today than for some years. 1t
has come to be taken up more univer-
sally also because of the general re-
vival in sports for women.
Now, no matter how humbly you ride
that is, no matter what your object,
If it is only for exercise on the back
of the family mare-you must have
certain riding clothes. There should
be high laced boots If there cannot be
regular riding boots. There should be
a short. serviceable skirt and a pair
of boomers if there cannot be habit.
But If you can afford to follow the
sport in style, then there are many
offerings from which to choose a be-
coming habit and accessories.
