"Time after time we get cases of' young men who hang on year after year : on their fathers farm, getting their . board and lodgings and an occasional' tew shillings to spend, just waiting for the old man to die, and then he leaves them nothing," said Mr Justice Deniiiston at the Christchurch Supreme Court. 'I don't think that the Court has ever attached any weight to /their action. They stay on voluntarily, and i if they choose to do so, that is their ' own business.", Mr Hunter submitted thatt there was a moral obligation on a testator to make adequate provision for his wife and family, and quoted a well-known case of "Allardyce v. Allar clyce, ' in support of his contention. Uh, yes, remarked his Honor with a smile. 'VAllardyce is a stone, weighted by the Privy Council, which is thrown at .every Judge in such cases now-a---days." Defiinite instructions regarding the official descriptions of chaplains to the forces have been issued by the Defence .Department. It is not the custom in j the service to address chaplains by mili- i tary ranks, and the orders state that this practice must be discontinued in official correspondence. Chaplains are classified as chaplains to the forces 4th class, 3rd class, 2nd class, Ist class or as .chaplain-general. The correct designation for a chaplain of lower rank than chaplain-general is "Rev. J ' chaplain to the forces first class." Chap! lams do not possess military ranks, are j grad.ed as captains, lieutenant-colonels, ' etc., for the purpose of pay, and wear badges only as an indication of rank. ' ARE COLDS CATCHING? It is claimed that most colds are catching as measles, and that one should avoid the association of anyone ' who has a cold to kiss your child. Avoid who has a cold to kis syour child. Avoid orowded cars and poorly ventilated sleeping rooms. Then when you take a cold get rid of it as quickly as possible. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy used as directed will enable you to throw it off quickly and permanently. That preparation always cures and is pleasant and safe to take. Sold everywhere.— Advt.
