In city planning, us in all art, the same law prevails, und we have the modern civic center, with buildings around a smalt pork. Kan Francisco's new civic center Is u grand example of this type. Many of our smalt cities have simi lar aspirations und some have made a splendid beginning. One of these Is the little city of Inglewood, Cul. lhit now they are offered a Carnegie library and It Is purposed to place It In the center or middle of the park system. With such a precedent the whole urea may some time be covered with build lugs so tlmt where now is a generous and beautiful breathkjg place there will then be the most congested dis trict in the municipality. Or, tf but the one building Is allowed to violate the scheme ull other public buildings will be staring at this poor little structure, seemingly wondering why this one Impertinent Individual lias tieen allowed to so trespass und the riv malruler have been excluded. And all visitors will be struck with a like won der. Aside from the violation of the proper spirit, the fine long view, the system's greatest charm, will be de stroyed. The high and grammar schools, the city hull, engine house and other building lots now face the purk and It Is hoped that the city will secure "another lot for a library site. If this Is not done it will ever be a cause of regret und a step backward udmltted by all who know. Several citizens of taste have already objected to"'the proposed site. Other cities will do well to avoid muklng such mis takes. REMEMBER SPRING 'CLEANUP' Just Now la Not at All Too Early to Make Plana for Betterment of the Home City. With the approach of spring "city beautiful" work should have the atten tion of householders and others who appreciate the Importance of clean streets, clean yards tintl well-kept lawns. ItlrmlnKhnin Is noted for Its mountain-like scenery, Its elepint homes ond Its fine landscape effects. Kueti attractions form a tiuftlnct civic asset. In tho fushlonable' v *ectliins the grounds makltiK up the scltlnK for styl ish houses lire carefully tended, and In many of the humbler districts evi dences of Kood sanitation and retlned taste are seen; but flowers and green sward should be the rule everywhere. It costs little money to keep a pretty yard; hut many a Rruss plot "down town" Is marred by thoughtless pedes trians. Not only Is this so on tho cor ner lots, but tho spaces between the curbing and the sidewalk that should be lush and green during tin- greater part of the year Is soon ruined after the advent of spring by being trnmpled Upon. The public purks arc usually In ex cellent condition, ond It should he tho same way with the strip* of green along the sidewalks.

Thi|» applies to farm houses, and especially barns when tilled with hay or feedstutTs. Heating—All arrangements for heating should be safe. Are your chimneys aud Hues safely con structed? Terr.i-cotta and brick on-edge flues are not. Are your stoves protected from wood and the pipe* safe and well wired? How übout your fireplaces? Don't start lires with kerosene. Lighting—What kind do you use? Is it safe? Electric wirintr standard? Do you use kerosene oil? If to, are your lamps kept clean aud filled by daylight only? Get a good, safe lauteru aud keep it clean; or, better, get a flash light. Closets—What "is the condition ot your closets and pack-rooms? Don't carry Hghted candles or lamps into them- Smoking should not be done about farm buildings. It is the cause of innumerable fires. Such a lire, iu this year particularly, is a crime. Matches should not be lighted Mi a barn or warehouse, nor kept there, nor carried loose in the pocket. Use safety matches. Use only safe lanterns and light them at sate distances. Lanterns —Discard tho old lan tern and the suspicious lantern. Provide perfectly safe and con venient places to hang your lan terns, or place them in tho barn, aud never hang or place them ..elsewhere. Antomobil.tH and gasoline trac tor* must not lie housed in or ad joining a building where grain or slock in kept. Keep your gaso line supply at mi absolutely safe distance.

Six-Year Old Boy Was Thin and Puny —Father Gave Him Dreco and I Can Almost See Him Grow Now," He Says. As the school term reaches its height, attention is directed to the oft-repeated advice of leading edu cators warning teachers, parents and schoiaJs against the fearful results of exhaustive brain work among young people. ' - To thousands of boys and unnerved by the strain of school life, Dreeco —the wonderful new Herbal medicine, has been found a ble.-siug, making them well and strong, feeding the brain and nerves, and enriching and purify ing the blood. The recent recommendation of Dreco by leading authorities and the equally outspoken praise of this greatest of remedies by scores of parents throughout the South are the best recommendations any medicine cau have. Nothing in the world so strength ens tho weak, so readily restores lost nerve force, so surely makes the ailing and peevish young wo man or growing boy well and cheerful as a treatment by Na ture's own beneficent methods.
