A Napier mercer had an amusing; esperience in connection with his business the other day. A certain customer of his was in the habit of wearing celluloid collars, which he always purehased from the_ mercer in question, generally entering the shop and paying qasli for his purchase.

Faulty methods of expression have frequently been responsible for misIfekes being made and apropOs of this W well-known Napier land agent tells a good story.

The agents were faced with a somewhat diffieult task, however, when they received the letter, ^ which stated, "If yjau will throw me in the lake, T wiH ijake the property."
