to be happy at a resort where three
toilets a day are the proper thing.

Don't forget that most camping
parties are overloaded with super

light. II by boat, go lighter. II

Don't forget that outdoor life Will
give you a hearty appetite. and don
forget TO do enough actual work TO.

Work hard enough TO sweat freely

Don't forget your medicine chest
containing simple remedies that
your doctor will suggest. Change
Of water and food and habits will

Miniature Stampede of Depositors at

Boise Idaho.-The failure of the
Boise State bank on Tuesday, which
proved a shock to financial circles and
caused a sensation, started a NINA

that all other state and national banks
here have from 35 to so per cent OF
their deposits on hand in actual cash
and could pay out within twenty-four
hours.
The Boise State bank was closed
by order of State Bank Commissioner

The resolution was introduced for
