The person or company you appoint i to be the trustee of your will must be capable of meriting your implicit trust and confidence. His character, standing, ability, and record must be beyond reproach. * I ‘ It is because the “ Trustees, Exocu(tors” fulfils these requirements better I than anyone else that scores of successful men have appointed this corn* pany to be their trustees and executors. The fact that the company bar over £3,000,000 in its administration is some evidence of the confidence reposed in it by the owners of valuable estates.

Investigation of its record and history, its directorate and management, convinces one that here is the ideal trustee company—capable, experienced, and reliable in every respect. The Trustees, Executors, and Agency Co. of N.Z., Ltd., corner Bond and Water streets, Dunedin.—[Advt.]
