The Presidents Title.

In spite of our traditions and our pre-.
lenses Americans dearly love a title
It's fair guess that larger part of
the mail that goes to the White House
Is addressed to Ellis Excellency'' or
"His Eminence" or "His Honor" As
a matter of fact his title is The Presi-
dent Of the United States. That is title
SO great that the fathers decided that to
add to it would be to detract from 1t.
The fathers were wise. Taking their
cue from the federal practice the con-
sdtntion makers nor the statute max
ers Of New York ever gave the chief
executive of this componwealth other
title than the governor of New York.
Every governor of the state has been
content with that. Address him SO In
letter or in speech and you are right.
Decorate him with an ''excellency" or
an "honor'' and you are wrong. The
governor of Massachusetts Is His Ex-
cellency by warrant of the constitution
OF 1880, but he is the only excellency
we have In America.-New York Sun.

Of Hankow. distance Of 600 miles, the
Yangtze is navigable for ocean going

distance the river is very broad, and
for some of the journey passenger In
a boat in midstream would be unable
to see either shore distinctly. From
Hankow to Ichang, 28O miles farther,
the Yangtze is navigable for small riv-
er steamers, and from Ichang up to
Pingshanhsien, nearly 1000 miles, It is
In great part nayigable. Some Of the
passenger steamers plying between
Shanghai and Hankow are exceedingly
modern and comfortable. Thousands
Of sailing craft are seen on the river

important tributaries. One Of these,

WATERING THE LAWN.
A Task That, as General Rule, Is Not
Properly Performed.


There are probably more mistakes
made in connection with the watering
of the lawn than in any other phase of
It's management
The practice Of sprinkling. as it is al
most universally followed. is funda-
mentally wrong-not that the sprinkler
does not furnish enough water to the
grass during the season. but that it
does not furnish it in properly distrib-
uted quantities
Sprinkliilg fer short period may ap-
pear to wet the sod thoroughly. but in
reality the water does not penetrate
much below the surface. This encour-
ages the formation of surface roots
and makes the grass less resistant to
the severe conditions of weather and
usage.
Except In rare cases the lawn should
not be watered oftener than two or
three times week. A thorough soak
ing is necessary and should be given in
the late afternoon or early morning
The ordinary type of revolving spray
is quite satisfactory, but the amount of
water applied by it is usually much
less than appears.
The point to be borne in mind is that
the ground should be thoroughly satu-
rated at each application to at least
three inches in depth.-Kansas City
