Brown, from Chemainus to Melbourne, and when Off Palmerston Island, the natives of the latter place came off m boats, bringing with them cocoanute, which were exchanged for provisions.

Mr Justice Cpoper is apparently a believer m the independence of juries when called upon to deal with matters of fact, He said the other day m "summing up m a civil suit that he had always held the opinion that a jury should m cases where there was a conflict of evidence, exercise its functions ' freeely m coming to a decision. -The summing up of a judge was no doubt very helpful, but it did not always follow -that, the jury was bound, to accept his view, juries, were, ; as > matter of fact, absolute masters of the situation. before the Wanganui Aledical Congress on the^cholastic task of secondary schools, the President (Dr Saunders) stated that it was much more difficult to obtain a Junior University Scholarship m New Zealand than to proceed to a B.A. degree, which students are not supposed to reach until afteri a course of three years 'extra study at the University. He read a letter from Miss Fraser, head mistress of the Wanganui Girl's College, stating that "the most exacting examination of our couhtiy is that for junior scholarships m the University of New Zealand. Auss Fraser also stated that many secondary teachers are "without the sympathetic insight into mental processes that is much better than knowledge of mere laws." Dr Saunders further remarked that there was a real need — not so acutely felt as it should be I —for the education of the educators.

j GRAVEL CURED BY DOAN'S BACKI ACHE KIDNEY PILLS. The kidney filters out of the body the poisons and impurities which collect m it.
