" Everything must have a beginning; ah. twelve thousand pounds is not a bad beginning 1 for one so young and fair a capitalist!'' "Ah I but when the mortgage is paid off. . ." Having for Ihe moment forgotten how f his matter of the mortgage had been kept private, **he checked herself confusedly. "Perhaps you did uot know there w,.3 a mortgage ?' she said. ".Why, yes -I knew there was something of the kind. We lawyers hear most ot those thing*, you know. But, bless mo I mort gages are as common as blackberries. Show me the old propeity nowduys that i. not mortgaged !" "I am glad you know it," said Winifred simply. " I am ttlad to be able to talk to you about it. May I ask you or two ques tions, Mi Marrables.'' " Miss Winifred, you may ask mc|a thou sand. What do want to know ?" "Well—l have always wanted to know why we ever went to law nt all with old Lord llrackenbury's father. To me it has never seemed reasonable.' The piece of land on which they found the mine was sold and done with, like any other that people sell. IfJ we soldi our family portraits and one of them turned out to be a Vandyke or a Hoi. bein,iwe should not go to'law about it," " My dear young lady," said Mr Mann hies, " if you ask me many such questions wo shallhave to take a driving tour together' in order to give me time enough fo answer them. But I will do my best to explain the position-though, indeed, it is a^ matter, not only difficult to explain, but difficult to understand when explained. You may perhaps, have heard of such a thing as 'an attendant term !' " " Never." "Ah, well—an attendant term used to.be one of the|standing mysteries of English law. It was a—a kind of contrivance, whereby jointur-.s and the portions of younger children were secured by the creation of what were called 'terms'of years—terms j of two, three, or even live huudrcd years. . When these terms hadjserved their purpose instead of being merged iv.the freehold, they were assigned to sepaiate trustees 'toattend the inheritance ;' and every time the estate changed hands, whether by devolution or sale, these terms were re-assignodito new trustees, in order to protect the new pos... sessor from any possible flaw in his title, Do you follow me?" . 7 t "N—no; not exactly." " I »hould be surprised if you did," said Mr Marrables drily. "To put it differently then—an ' attendant term' was a kind of ■; legal umbrella which the ,'awyer held over his client's head ; not because it was ever likely to rain; but in case it could, would , should, or might rain." . ' " What an absurd thing 1" " Not only absurd, but clumsy—which is worse. However, this ridiculous contri.. vauce was abolished by Act of Parliament some twenty years a«o—a most sensible measure ; the effect of which was as if an Act had been passed providing that umbrellas should be abolished, and that what bad hitherto been called umbrellas , should cease to bo deemed umbrellas, and should not need to be specially held up ;, but should henceforward be held to have '•■ the same effect as if they were held!up. i Well, my dear Miss Winifred, that unlucky bit of land, you see, was sold under the old law, and your great-uncle's solicitor (a most worthy man—l knew him from a boy) neg lected to put up the umbrella." .1 ~ |! "And then it rained?" ~.,.':...; , " Precisely-1 tee you take me this time.<! Well, now, if that bit of land had been as-i worthless as it looked, no one would Over have thought of inquiring whether the umbrella had been put up or not. It turned out, however, to be immensely valuable. • The late Squire put himself into the hands ot Fawcett and Clarke; Fawcett and Clarke,; like sharp men of business, found out the omission—and thereby hung the lawsuit.' . No-no-no .. . .no thanks. Jam only deli-thted if I have really made it clear lo you." - ... " I certainly seem to know more about it than I ever knew before," said Winifred hesitatingly. "Thanks to my story of the umbrella ; not my joke, however-oh, dear, no !-I never said anything half so witty."; -, "Hut—but lam afraid I find the joke more difficult than the legal formula." ■ -~ „vi "Eh ?—you don't mean that 1 No—no; * you don't mean that, my dear Miss Winifred." L . .: ■-. _iii "I know I am very stupid," saidr Winifred. "I would not hear your enemy: say^so> —Hamlet, you know. Hamlet. But, in/, truth, an 'attendant term' would be a tough. morsel for Minerva herself. There was some ■ thing else you wished to ask me." ■' ;j II .; "Only about paying off the mortgage. Must I write a cheque for the money ?" * " You will have to write a cheque in the 1 first instance, undoubtedly ; but youtii proper course will be to lodge the amount with Miss Langtrey's solicitor, and depute, him to settle the matter. "My aunt wishes to pay Mr Fawcett herself," said Winifred. •' Herself I How do you mean ? Not' personally—' argent comptant' ."■ "Yes, just that—'argent comptant,'" 're*.I. plied Winifred, laughing. " I believe she.' means to take that opportunity of giving • Mr Fawcelt what she calls a 'piece of her mind.'" ■ ■ : v Mr Marrables looked aghast. ; ■■ '•' "A piece of her mind ? Gracious heavens" I- 3 My dear young lady.you must; at all costs, * prevent your excellent aunt from doing any-' thing of the kind. To give a lawyera pi.co of one's mmcl is like shaving a tiger,oor:r r: putting a pinch of salt on an aHigatoir'a tail 1. >'' She would he sure to say something ttiit'l was actionable. Besides, it is out of 0 thaI*regular1*- regular oourse. These things ate ah-^' 1 done by lawyeis, Yon must positively peri-* suade Miss Langtrey to give up the'l'd. ji-**^ " I will try," said Winifred j " but I< dbW think it will be of much use. No,piea-%-* Mr Marrables, don't turn down the lane; I' would rather walk to the house." '• :'' ';,;! They.had reached the top of alanecomi* pletely overarched by trees* ma_y of which were yet in russet leaf.

N.Z., Bth fULY 0880, Messrs. Sander Se Sons, Sandhurst. Genti_e__en,—Having suffered from eczema (a skin disease which is very prevalent in thif oolony) for about nine years, 1 had consulted numerous medical men hero and in Austral!., and had taken arsenic, strychnine, iodide o potassium, etc., internally, and had used pre parations of zinc and liad externally. In fad I had tried all tho remedies known to the faculty, and what between travelling doctorc' aDd druggists' bills, had spent a small fortune, almost if not wholly without results, except to injure my constitution. During a recent visit to Hokltika I was recommended to try yoni E-tract of Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother who had experienced great benefit from it in alleviatine; a very severe cold, and, no less to mj surprise than satisfaction, I found the dhease which had troubled me so long was conouered, and tho skin resumed its normal condition This was effected by the external use of less than two one-ounce bottles.
