In any locality an abundant "> .supply of pure wator is felt to bo an inestimable, if '> not an indispensable treasure, bearing so directly, as '> it. does, upon the health and comfort of the household ; but in a district whero such a boon i* a i, novelty indeed, the advantago of this grand qualifii, cation of a healthy homo, it may bo stated with confidence, can hardly bo overrated.

A Railway Station will be close in tho vicinity. Omnibuses pass hourly to tho city on tho one hand, and to Onehunga on the other, afi'ording every facis lity to tho residents in tho neighbourhood whether t for business or pleasure, relieving tho locality of tho i sameness fiul oppressive sense of loneliness which renders other suburban districts so irksomo to the 8 inhabitants. It has also a largo frontago to Brownstreet, leading to tho Auckland Hundreds, from which it is readily accessible, and where it is capable , of subdivision at any timo into allotments suitable 8 for building sites of great prospective value.
