“ PUT NOT YOUR TRUST IN MORTALS.” An old saying, and one well ■worth considering when making your will and naming your trustee. The appointment of a private trustee is always fraught with a certain amount of risk. He is but human perhaps sickness or death will overtake him, or he may desire to travel. All these eventualities may prevent him from properly carrying out his duties as executor of your estate. On the other hand, by naming the Trustees, Executors as your trustee you can depend on obtaining permanent, uninterrupted supervision, and the utmost value from your estate. The company cannot die or go away, and you can rest assured that your estate will be safeguarded in every respect. The Trustees, Executors, and Agency Co. of N.Z., Ltd., corner Bond and Water streets, Dunedin. —[Advt.]
