School Ga, .ens In Wa.hinqton.

The school garden movement in Washington. which started humbly a few years ago, has so strongly appeal ed to the children and their parents that with comparatively little assist ance from the public funds it has thrived amazingly. Already marked change is observable not only in the immediate surroundings of the school buildings themselves, but in all parts of the town at the homes of the little ones. They have been taught plant love in terms which have in many cases never been presented to them be- fore. By their personal participation in the work of making gardens, fin prepar- ing the ground, selecting and planting the seeds, caring for the sprouts and the plants and finally plucking the blooms of their own cultivation they have gained sense of responsibility which makes for the improvement of the whole town.

PROUD OF HIS TOWN.
What One Man Is Doing to Improve
 Jackson, Tenn.

One of the most progressive town officials in the south is Samuel Lan- caster, city engineer of Jackson, Tenn. MT. Lancaster thinks there is no place like Jackson, and he wants others to think so, too, and he is doing every thing in his power to make it one of the prettiest towns in the country. It is due in a great measure to his ef- forts that good roads are being built in Madison county. But road building is not all that has engrossed the big bratL of Sam Lancaster, says writer in Breeders Gazette. As manager of the WaterwOrks he saw chance to do things. Jackson had no park, and near the waterwOrks there was needed a raised roadway. Sam Lancaster made the fill, and before any one knew what on the site whence came the earth for the fill. Smaller lakes near by cam,
 then drives, bridges, boats, lilies (mat
 velous lilies), banks of flowers, trees.
 An unsightly railway yard adjoined the waterworks. The railway was ask cd for few cars of earth. Presto! Sam made the yard and the park join. Grass, flowers, shrubs, beauty, order
 seats, comfort, inspiration, hope, all came out of that old sink hole. And the manager only grinned when he saw that Sam Lancaster had actually parked and fenced part of his right of way. Now travellers on that railway will pass by and say, Jack
 son, Tenn. is a beautiful place and must have people of culture within it."

It strengthens the digestive organs, cures constipation and prevents the return of bilious conditions.
