SCHOOLS OF TOWN PLANNING
Man Who Adds to Beauty of City Is Given Encouragement in
 Europe.

Anclent Athens and Rome set us an example of civic centers in the Acrop oils and the Forum.
 Frankfort, says the New York World, purchased number of nedi- eval buildings near the city hall and restored them to the original style that they should be in harmony with it.
 beriin has a school of town plan. ming
 Germany has experts like Stueb- Ben, Fischer. Gurlett, Henrici and ndumelster, who give advice on town pianaln8 and travel from city to city, It Is new profession-"staed tebau."
 Frankfort has built an exposition nall about the size of Madison Square garden
 Munlch has a group of exposition buildings comprising an auditorium a theater, hall for exhibits and a summer concert garden
 When a new street is opened in brussels or Paris. prizes running as blgh as $4,000 in Brussels and equal to ohe-half the street tax ill Paris are offered by the authorities for the most artistic facades vienna remlts a percentage of taxes 10 landlords who will tear down an 2la building and put up a bigger and b&tter one

 Paris requires thataa all office and i. house fronts shah be periodically re. pared or repainted, so that the street snail appear neat and fresh. All wide Paris streets are in effect parks They have rows of shade trees Many of them have central Hark strip planted with trees, grass and flowers, and benches are placed there. Along the chief streets are perhaps 100000 trees, large number for city so compactly built In practically all European cities agreements are kept constantly in good repair.
 All those European cities whose good government has something to teach America a managed not by politicians but by experts.

SCHOOL GARDEN GREAT HELP
Supplies Initiative and Responsibility Lacking in Child Who Goes to
 Work Early.

Those who have made a thorough study Of the subject have found that the children who leave school early for hard work, are of little value to their employers. because of a lack of initiative and proper sense of respon sibility. No home training in this line is given them at any age, and in this the school garden may be of great help
 After child has laid out his gar den with tape or other measure. drawn il to scale, laid out each small al lotment for several sorts of plants fertilized and dug over and smooth, ed out his little garden, he has we'll defined Ideas and knowledge con cerning lines and their length, reia. rionshlps: and of areas. volumes. etc A knowledge of the amount of seed he sows, weighing. measuring or even ca timating the subsequent crop and con, putting it's money value has in 1t all the fundamentals of business educa. tion Add to this the study of soils and their formation, effects of heat and moisture and the many other points developed in school garden work. and you have largely made over the once comparatively blank brain space into a practical working ma. chine

Ooodwater, Mo.-"Ever since was !, little girl," says Mrs. Riley Laramore, "I was great sufferer from dyspepsia.
 l suffered misery after eating, and had srfib!e heartburn.
 l thought l had to suffer this way as ong as lived, but when began to take .hedtord's Biack-Draught, in small loses, every night. the heartburn was all sone in a few days, and could eat sithout distress.
 ] took two small packages in all. and Although that was some time ago. the dyspepsia has not returned.
 l speak good word for Thedford's 3lack-Draught whenever l have the op- ,ortunity"
 If eating causes distress, we urge you b try Thedford's Black -Draught. It aeanses the system, helps the stomach to digest its food, regulates the bowels, and stimulates the liver.
 It acts geatly and is without bad alter effects. Tryit. Price 25c.

WHY THE ADS DIDN'T PAY
Experience of . Southern City in Try. Ing to Attract People-Foiiow.
 Up Work Necessary.

One southern city wisely contracted for several hundred dollars worth of advertising space in a leading Chi cago. publication during the period of ,the~receR land show.f
 Before thegland show had closed re- turns. came freely in the form of many letters Of Inquiry from various parts of the country. They looked good. " and doubtless represented a goodly percentage of hopeful possibilities But no one knows and probably no one will ever know. because the local commercial body has no equipment for handling the situation.
 They have no printed matter to send to the correspondents.
 They have no plan for classifying. grouping and referring the several communications to any one who might helpfully respond and deal with them
 They have no exact data to submit in reply to specific inquiries
 They have not even some one in the office who Is making even a for maj or form" reply or at least ac- knowledgment. ,na
 They have no plan. no policy. no program. no machinery. no method. no printed matter. no data, mo nothing!"
 h 1t not awful! Awful! Awful!!!
 And of course "advertising does not pay"

For Protecting Green Cement.

After laying new concrete side. walk it was not long since the custom to protect it from marring while if was still soft by spreading over it tar paper, which was held down by sticks laid across il or perhaps bv light stones laid on it here and there not altogether satisfactory method. for under these light and unevenly placed weights the paper was likely to shift or to blow up in places But nowadays while 1t is hardening the new pavement Is protected in q much more perfect manner by spreading over the tar paper that has been laid upon it uniform thin layer of sand. this being one of the innumerable im- provements. large and small, charac. teristic of modern ways of doins things.

ADVERTISING THAT
 GIVES BEST RESULTS
By William c. Freeman.

K. s. Fenwick recently made very
 ness men on the subject of advertis-
 ing, in which he said: There are two methods of advertfs-
 ing in common today. The first might be described as business building"
 and the second as business Stimulat- ing
 The first Is used consistently. sys- tematically, intelligently, for the pur-
 pose of making more sales, day by day
 and month by month, than were made
 In the corresponding period of the pre- vious year
 The second Is used for the purpose
 of making the sales take sudden
 jump, when 1t is found that business is dull. when 1t Is desired to raise
 money, or when any one of hundred
 other conditions may arise.
 The first. used alone. results in
 permanent gain and continuous
 growth, when intelligently applied
 the second, used alone, even when ac-
 complishing the desired result. In. variably leaves the business in a
 weakened condition. from which 1t takes time to recover
 We all like to see quick results- that is natural. We are inclined to
 consider the immediate benefit as
 more important than the ultimate profit. on the principle that "a bird
 in the hand is worth two in the bush. ' But il should be remembered that con- tinuous advertising has a cumulative influence worth more than the sum of It's immediate, traceable returns. The cumulative effect of continuous advertising is to build up public conf dence and to sell goods through the
 influence of repeated suggestions The constant dropping of water on stone will wear it away in one spot the constant contact with the ad- vertisementS of any business will l make an ever increasing impression
 on the public mind.
 Stop the dropping and the stone will soon wear smooth-stop the advertis. | ing, and the impression will soon be crowded out and replaced by other i'm pressions
 The trouble with special effort in ad vertlsing is that the desire to stimu late business creates a condition that l makes the merchant sometimes very we'll contented with the results of ad vertising, but more often it makes him feel as though advertising has lost it's power
 The steady. long puIl-always at fl always giving good value-always
 making good ones promises-always being painstaking in the matter ol seryice-is the kind of advertising
 that in the long run gives permanency
 and reputation and profit to a busi ness ..'
 Spend what you can afford. but spread the amount over persistent
 course of advertising. Whatever you do. don't be spasmodic.

A telegram received by E. w.
Curry on Tuesday evening dated at
fact that James Coin had been killed
during the day, and that the body
would arrive in Leon for burial on
Thursday. No paticulars have been
received up to the time of going to
press. The young man was we'll
known in Leon, and for some time
had been engaged in railroading on
the Union Pacific.
On Sunday evening Billy. Boone
was airing his new fast boss on the
road north of town. He SHE'D at
something, and got to going so fast
that Billy was left in heap at the
side of the road, while his little son,
Glare, who occupied a seat in the
cart, held on. Fortunately in
bouncing out Billy carried the lines
over the side of the cart, and when
he let go the wheel took hold and
wound them up. The lines being
sufficiently stout the horse was
pulled down and caught by a passer-
by, and the result was no damage.
But it was a narrow escape for the
little boy.
