COMMON DISEASES.

3.-THE KIDNEYS.

NEXT in order of importance to the liver, the kidneys play a most important part in the internal economy of the excretory organs. Their functions are solely purify. ing or excretory, by getting rid of effete products contained in the blood. Should they from any cause become inefficient, the uric acid which should be excreted is retained in the circulatory system, and gives rise to urinic poisoning -ending fatally. There is no doubt that errors

When the X or Röntgen rays have been turned on to these wonderful organs, the high liver will be able to see what his excesses have led up to. He will see either the small, shrunk kidney caused by excessive indulgence in spirituous liquors, or the large, fatty kidney, degenerating as the result of over-eating and highly-flavoured flesh food, without having taken the necessary exercise to counteract fatty formations. These few remarks are mainly due to the fact -which has been demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt that Kola, and Hopalin, 1rom Hops, both ingredients in Dr. Tibbles' Vi-Cocoa, exercise a most beneficial effect on the structional tissues of the kidney, and so on its excretory functions.

Dr. Tibbles' Vi-Cocoa is not in any sense a medicine. It is simply a nourishing beverage, and in that respect

Kola has a wonderful faculty of giving power to the involuntary muscles of the body. By involuntary we understand those muscles not controlled by the will those muscles which carry on the work of life withost our consent, and, unless looked at carefully, in many instances without our knowledge, such as the beating of the heart when asleep, the breathing of the lungs, the action of the kidneys, and the digestive process. Kola acts on these in a nourishing and strengthening sense, conserves the strength of these involuntary muscles, prevents undue waste, and by its beneficial action gives health and vigour to men and women. As people become more intelligent, they see that they should try and prevent disease. It seems strange, when one comes to consider it, that the efforts of medical science are directed to curing, when preventing would seem to be a more rational proceeding.

The unique vitalising and restorative powers of Dr. Tibbles' Vi-Cocoa are being recognised to an extent hitherto unknown in the history of any preparation. Merit and merit alone-is what is claimed for Dr. Tibbles' Vi-Cocoa, and the proprietors are prepared to send to any reader who names the SOLICITORS' JOURNAL (a postcard will do) a dainty sample tin of Dr. Tibbles' Vi-Cocoa free and post-paid.

EDUCATION.

THE COUNCIL invite attention to the following scheme of education, adopted n 1892 with the object of affording assistance to Articled Clerks. For the benefit of Clerks resident in London or who are able to attend, these classes are held and Tutors give advice and assistance at the Hall of the Law Society.

To those Clerks who are articled at a distance from large towns systematic instruction with advice and help is given, and a course of preparation through the post has been formulated.

POSTAL INSTRUCTION.

In the case of students who have not passed the Intermediate Examination the instruction is by means of monthly papers, and deals with the selected portions of Stephen's Commentaries.

For those who have passed the Intermediate Examination instruction is afforded by fortnightly papers, and embraces the following subjects: Equity, Conveyancing, Common Law, Bankruptcy, Criminal and Magisterial Law, Probate, Divorce, Admiralty, and Ecclesiastical Law.

These papers both before and after the Intermediate Examinations are varied each year, so that students who may subscribe for more than one year's tuition receive additional assistance.

These courses may be commenced at any time, but the Tutors recommend that the Intermediate course should be commenced at an early stage of the Articles, and the Final course soon after the Intermediate Examination has been passed.

Books can be obtained from Messrs. Stevens & Sons, or other law lending library, for a subscription of a guinea and a-half to cover the course of work for the Final Examination, and Stephen's Commentaries can be supplied to either Class of Postal Subscribers, at a subscription of one guinea, on application to the Tutor, Dr. West.

CLASS INSTRUCTION.

Class instruction is also provided on the selected portions of Stephen's Commentaries and the subjects above named, and it is recommended that the classes should be joined after the expiration of a course of Postal instruction. Students can join the classes at any time, the fees being proportionate to the length of attendance.

Rooms are provided where subscribers may study, and books are supplied without extra charge.

Periodical test examinations are held by the Tutors.

The Classes for Intermediate Students are held in the Hall of the Society on three afternoons in each week during the following periods: August to November; October to January; January to April; March to June. Students may subscribe for successive classes.

[blocks in formation]

SOCIETY.

Classes for Final Students are held at the Hall of the Society on four afternoons each week during the following periods: August to January; January to June.

These periods afford five months' class preparation, and students are advised to subscribe for a full course, and certainly for not less than three months, otherwise the work must necessarily be hurried.

Students may join the classes either before or after the Intermediate Examination without subscribing to the course of Postal instruction, but it is recommended that they should avail themselves of both modes of instruction. Subscribers to either Postal or Class instruction have the opportunity of consulting the Tutors upon the work of the course in personal interview or by letter at any time. RESULTS AND HONOURS.

The results obtained have been satisfactory. At each of the last twelve examinations pupils have obtained honours, and the percentage of passes is a high one, exceeding 85 per cent. of between two and three hundred pupils who last presented themselves for examination. It has happened on several occasions that all Class pupils have been successful, and the same has occurred in the case of subscribers to the Correspondence Courses. TUTORS.

WE HAVE been favoured with a copy of the draft rules under the Land Transfer Act, 1897. They are of unexpected and most formidable dimensions, including no fewer than 270 rules, besides lengthy appendices of forms and scales of charges, contained in sixty-two folio pages. It would be useless to reprint the draft, which may be altered before the rules are finally settled, but we propose, in a series of articles, to state and comment on its leading provisions with regard to the registration of title.

A REPORT issued by the Special Committee of the Incorporated Law Society on Money Lending, which has been adopted by the Council, recommends that the following suggestions be made to the Parliamentary Select Committee: (1) That the minimum limit for bills of sale should be raised from £30 to £50, and the interest be limited to 15 per cent. per annum on bills of sale to secure £100 and under, and 10 per cent. above that amount; (2) the re-enactment of the provisions in the Bills of Sale Act, 1878, that bills of sale should be attested by a solicitor, with a statement in the attestation that the effect of the bill has been explained to the grantor by the solicitor; (3) to give a borrower under a bill of sale power at any time to pay off the amount with interest up to date, together with fourteen days' interest in lieu of notice; and (4) to empower the High Court and county courts to interfere in cases of oppression or unfair dealing, and to make this relief available without unnecessary publicity.

NATURALLY one of the first matters of interest in the draft Land Transfer Rules is the scale of charges to be allowed to solicitors for their work in connection with the registration of title. Mellor, The Right Hon. John W., Q.C., hold land with a possessory title (which will, we imagine, For the first registration of freehold or lease

be the ordinary proceeding), the solicitor's charge is made to vary with the value of the land. If such value does not exceed £1,000, he is to receive the munificent sum of 10s. 6d. for every £100 or part of £100, no minimum fee being prescribed. If the value exceeds £1,000, and does not exceed

that prescribed for the first registration of land. So that, of course, when property is once registered with an absolute or qualified title, the solicitor's fees on any subsequent dealing therewith are cut down to the bare sums mentioned above in relation to first registration. There are many other matters to be noticed in the rules relating to solicitor's remuneration, but the above may suffice for the present week.

£20,000, he is to receive £5 53. for the first £1,000, and £1 18. for every subsequent £2,000 or part of £2,000. If the value exceeds £20,000 and does not exceed £10,000, he is to receive £15 15s. for the first £20,000, and £1 1s. for every subsequent £4,000 or part of £4,000. And if the value exceeds £40,000, he is to receive £21 for the first £40,000, and £1 1s. for every subsequent £10,000 or part of £10,000, up to a maximum of £26 5s. Now let us see what the solicitor has to do for this remuneration. This is prescribed by rule 17. He is to prepare and deliver at the registry a written application, signed by him AT THE Old Bailey this week a point of law on the construcor his client, in a form given in the first schedule, either accom- tion of the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885, was raised, panied by a plan or containing particulars sufficient to enable which is new and of very great importance. Section 3 (2) of the land to be "fully identified" on the ordnance map, and, if that Act provides that any person who "by false pretences or a particular verbal description is desired to be entered on the false representations procures any woman or girl, not being a register, stating such description. He is also to prepare and common prostitute or of known immoral character, to have any deliver at the registry a statutory declaration by the applicant unlawful carnal connection" shall be guilty of a misdemeanour. or his solicitor, in a form contained in the first schedule, stating The prisoner in the case referred to was indicted under this section (where made by the applicant) that the declarant is in possession for having procured a certain woman to have unlawful connection or receipt of the rents and profits of land shown on the plan with himself by falsely pretending that he was an unmarried annexed as an exhibit or described in the verbal description to man, and that he was able and willing to marry her. A motion be entered on the register, and that he is entitled thereto in fee was made to quash the indictment on the grounds that, on the simple for his own benefit, or otherwise, as the case may be; face of it, no offence was disclosed, and in support of the motion and that the value of the land does not, to the best of his belief, it was argued that "procure" in the section means “induce to exceed a sum to be specified. And if the application is for have connection with some person other than the person proregistration in the name of a nominee, or is made by a pur- curing." In support of the indictment, it was said that the chaser, the consent in writing of the nominee, or of the vendor word merely means to obtain, cause, or bring about, and that or his solicitor, must be prepared by the solicitor and left with the section must be interpreted literally, giving to the word the application. If any deed or document of title is delivered" procure" its ordinary meaning. The dictionaries state that with the application, it will be marked with notice of the regis- the word has a secondary signification—that is, to obtain for the tration and the number of the title, and if returned to the purpose of gratifying another's lust, and is allied in meaning applicant, a copy or abstract of it for filing must be prepared by with "pimp" and "pander." The word "procuress" has a the solicitor and furnished to the office if required. Then the well-established meaning, and is seldom, if ever, used in any entries and plan will have to be settled and the land certificate but this evil sense. It seems highly probable also, when we prepared by the office and considered by the solicitor, and either remember the nature of the agitation out of which the Act grew, handed to the applicant or deposited at the registry. Here we that Parliament had this secondary sense in mind in each place have, in the simplest case, the preparation by the solicitor of an in which the word "procure" is used. On the other hand, secapplication, probably of a plan, and of a statutory declaration, tion 2 (1) provides that any person shall be guilty of a misprobably with a plan exhibited thereto, and of a consent by demeanour who "procures any girl or woman under twenty-one the vendor. Then there are attendances to deliver these docuyears of age to have unlawful carnal connection ments at the office, attendances to settle same, and attendance with any other person or persons," while in section 3 these last to receive the land certificate. In matters of difficulty no fore- words are omitted. Further, there is a decision of the Court of cast can be made of the time and trouble which may be involved. Crown Cases Reserved in the case of Reg. v. Jones (44 W. R. For this a purchaser's solicitor, on a purchase for £1,000, is to 110; 1896, 1 Q. B. 4), on section 11, which is entitled to conreceive £5 5s. sideration. Section 11 provides that any male person shall be guilty of a misdemeanour who "procures the commission by any male person of any act of gross indecency with another male Here the court held that "another male person" may person.' be the person who procures; and the Recorder of London on the strength of this decision felt himself bound to uphold the indictcircumstances, but probably a case may yet be stated for the ment in the recent case. He could hardly do otherwise under the superior court. The decision in Reg. v. Jones on this point is, howand it is to be hoped that this important point will be authoritaever, by no means satisfactory, as no counsel appeared in the case, tively settled. If it becomes generally known that any man who seduces a woman under false pretences is liable to be indicted and to be imprisoned for two years, there will probably be a large number of prosecutions for the offence, as it is a very common one. We are far from saying that such persons do not deserve punishment, but at the same time it is to be remembered that when once it is recognized that a man who seduces a woman, say under false pretences as to his means, may be punished criminally, a very powerful weapon will be put in the hands of unscrupulous and designing women.

ON THE FIRST registration of land with an absolute or qualified title, the remuneration of the solicitor is also to vary with the value of the land. For the first £1,000 in value he is to receive £1 10s. per £100, for the second and third £1,000, £1 per £100; for the fourth and each subsequent £1,000 up to £10,000, 108. per £100; and for each subsequent £1,000 up to £100,000, 5s. per £1,000. There is to be a minimum charge of £3 where the value is under £100, and of £5 where the value is £100 or over; and fractions of £100 under £50 are to be reckoned as £50, and fractions of £100 above £50 are to be reckoned as £100. The work to be done by the solicitor in the case of registration with an absolute or qualified title will, we assume, be that now done by the purchaser's solicitor, except preparation of the conveyance, but plus all the requirements of the rules, which are much too lengthy and complicated to be summarized here; and for a purchase of £1,000 he will receive the present scale remuneration of £15; while on a purchase for £5,000 he will receive the scale fee of £45 now payable to the purchaser's solicitor. That is to say, the solicitor is in these cases to receive nothing for the extra work involved in obtaining registration; the object being, no doubt, to enable the office to say to purchasers "You can get an absolute or qualified titie for a less fee to your solicitor than you will have to pay if you take a conveyance in the usual way, and register with a possessory title." And (see rule 261 (d)) this remuneration is not to apply at all "when the title has been deduced or investigated by such solicitor on the occasion of a recent sale, purchase, or mortgage." In the case of completed transfers, charges, exchanges, and partitions of land (whether registered with an absolute, qualified, or possessory title), or of a registered charge where no title outside the register is investigated, the remuneration of the solicitor is to be

THE PROMINENT feature in the Queen's Proclamation of Neutrality is the recital of the rules annexed to Article VI. of the Treaty of Washington and of the Foreign Enlistment Act, 1870. The Act is a matter of municipal provision, and lays down the principles for preserving neutrality which the Government of Great Britain will enforce against British subjects. The rules are a matter of international provision, and declare the principles which ought to secure the observance of neutrality by either Great Britain or the United States in cases where the other party is engaged in hostilities.
