A more even or healthful climate

The city is composed of that class

They have and are demonstrating
daily such belief by having the Ia

several up to date mercantile hous-

solidity and beauty second to none

homes are adjacent to it, it cannot
help but appeal to those who are
in quest of the best OF health and

City Of Boomers Ferry
A Thriving Little City 1903 Miles from Spokane,
In Bonner County, Idaho--The People
are Social and Progressive.

The city of Boomers Ferry with
its 1000 inhabitants, is situated at
the head of the beautiful Kootenai
valley, on the sparkling mountain
water of the Kootenai river. Its
location is an ideal one, situated in
a level basin, where the swift wa
ter of the Kootenai becomes placid
and calm, on its flow to the Koot-
enai lake in British Columbia.
Surrounded by low mountains
where the graceful trees of the for

the surrounding country, making a
charming landscape, which the art
ist with his greatest talent, is in
capable of painting. Being in the

1t is the ideal spot for those who are
worn and tired from constant bust

constitutions need building up from
care of any description. Those
who have been seeking such haven
Of rest, and have stopped in our
beautiful little city, have regained

High and low, to and fro,
Sailing, swooping-see him go,
Now fast, now slow,
The pirate of the air is he,
Every course to him is free.
As his shadow chills the ground.
Flees the hare with timorous bound
Thus the merchantmen of old
Fled the dire black flag unrolled.
For the hawk must slay and slay,
TO live by murder is his way;
Armed he goes with talons keen,
With hooked beak his eyes between,
To strike, to hold, to tear and rend.
From such fate, ye gods. defend
The trembling creatures in the grass
That shrink to let the quick death pass!
But as the pirate had his lass,
The hawk has his; and on the nest

Nestlings, too, there are to rear,
For whom the moors must live in fear,
Away he sails. till. growing dim,
