RANGING IN AREA FROM OVER AN EIGHTH OF AN ACRE TO OVER ONE AKD A-HALF ACRES. MIRAMAR has long bsen known as ona of the most de'i-rhtiul outlets for the people of th 6 City of Wellington. A ci fun-ug valley, level as a bowLng green, wiln an extraor(lir,?rily r.'ch coil of deep rpiny loam ombo'on'scl amicM a se'r'c.rcle of .ow undulating hil'i, <t }.r-<-crh a pic'"iis nroly to be ccu''>( ! for peaceful !

MTH.\MA"R has been for ye-rs the horna of fie host of Wellington's po!o, galf, and hock-r clubs, and the insert of thousands de" frhled to watch the vaiy.ng sport* on its lovely greens md l : nk=, and at the samo fmo enjoy its beautiful scenery and life-giving breezes. MTRAMAR therefore requires no words Ito nccenUiatß its cla : m to a leading position ns a great reside utial site for the rapidly-increnwng -population of the Empire City. The fact that Mr. A. D. Crawford, one of the late owners, retained from the ,' Evans Bay and Miramnr Estats Compt ay, ', at a cct of £300 per rcr?, ten acres of the laid fold to the company — that he is now preparirg and ky.aj it out as garden ?nd grounds prior to the erection of an extensive family re?i r 'eaiee — speaks: volumes qb to Mr. Crawford's opinion of Mirnmar as a plara of residence. MIRAMAR will have the advantage of a first-class dra-nage system, the main rewer of the Wellington City Drainage Works running through Miramar to the | open sea in Cook Strait. MIRAMAR has the enormous benefit of an unlimited supply of tho purest water within twelTO feet of the surface. MIRAMAR will have at an early date a contmurtson of the electric light and gas supply of the City of Wellington. Arrangements are now being made so that the large population shortly to bo settlod in M ran,ar will feel thst they have all the City benefits without the City's heavy rates. MIRAMAR is romewhat unique in tho many advantages it enjoys of pasy communication with the capital. At present it can be reached by the daily coach to Seatoun (which passes through Miramar) in. half an hour, or by bicycle in twenty minutes. It will be of interest also to know that fixed arrangements havo been ! made with the M.rpvntir JVrry Company, Limited, thai on and after the Ist January next a new felcnn Daily Ferry Service from Wellington to the Miramar Wharf will run, nuking ad first two returntrips daily — morning and evening — and special trips as required. The t : me occu- , pied on the run will not exceed twenty minutes. The fares wi«l be os weekly ticket, 12s monthly ticket, £6 yearly ticket (single), or £10 per annum for a faraiiv ticket, by which all the inmnlfls of a household can travel as often as they please. This m?kes it ensier and cheaper to reach Mtraanr by so? tlian to reach JN'ewtown by tho Trams. MTR4MAR will also have tho benefit of Lib new Wollingfon electric twin ser■v.ce and of the new motor-c-r service. A hue of motor on»nibu r es carrying 24 pas^n^ers each will be e^rblishe'd eaTly npxt year, so that tho residents of Miramnr will hove brovctht to their doors all thnt is newest and best in scientific locomotion. These faots show that Miramar should' command special attention as a residential suburb of tho firt-t rank.. It will undoubtedly within a brief period be filled with villa residences of superior character, and hundreds of happy homes W'W replace tin sport-loving public on the green flat? of Miramnr. A perusal of the nnmes of the purchasers at the sale on the 30th October hrt will in itself ?fford the most convmcnsi proof of thi" f-et. and forms the bp^ guarantee of the high-c'as? character of the buildings which will rfiortly be erected. Let us say to thcordinary money-making man: to-day the purchase of a section or two in Miramar will bo a first-class speculative investment ; to-morrow, twelve months hence, if you wish to sell you will undoubtedly reap a large profit on your speculation; the increase of population and enterprise will do that. To the man who has the sense, and courage to purchase for the purpose of creating a home for a wife nad family we fay, you will reap a rich reward. Surrounded by friends and neighbour?, amidst beautiful scenery, you will find all that if beft in you enriched and ennobled, while thn home will Brow in^ material value- year by ypor and prove tho be«t savings bank ever dreamt of by you. Tho Terms, of Sale have been fixed on an exceedingly liberal bas^ — namely: Ten per cent, deposit ; 10 per cent, in three month" ; 10 per cent, in six months ; and tha balance of 70 per cent, can remain unpaid for five years. Interest on unpaid purelinte-money at the rate of 5 per cent, per annum. For conditions of sale, lithographic plans of property, and further details, apply to the Auctioneers. SPECIAL NOTE.— The attention ot those who are anxious to securo exceptional Villa. Site 3is particulary drawn to the sections fronting tho Seatoun Heights Koad.
