THE INSTITUTE.

■ ■ .■>• ■ - fflO THE EDITOR. ''- Sir,—l sorry to'have to trouble yof} agnin about ihis matter, but 1 cannot let the invidious contained' in Mr Fatujm-'ir letter which appears iii your yeitwaay'g;issue go unclmllenyed. He makes no direct denial of the facts set forth in my'letter, but ho insinuates that Aey are untrue. The. weather-boarding patched with pieces of zinc, the panes of glasß put in the window sashes in sections, tho white pine shingles on the roof, and the paper 011 the and coilingj damaged at tho time of the fire, are still in existence and speak for themselves. The particulars of tho leaks in the "roof of tho new kitchen I heard reported to the Mayor and tivo ot tho Councillors on Tuesday last, The innuendo' about my making assertions in ' another place' is only what one might expect from dull malignity, A Mustertou tradesman has called to say that it was lie who patched the weathor-boarding at the north-west corner with pieces of zinc, betnuso of tho leaky condition of that part. N . I am, &c., John Kinw (To Sir.—Many of our Wairarapa friends, when visiting Wellington with the intention of purchasing at Te Aro Houso s hore, have been puzzled by the close proximity of another draper's shop, to know' which was which. To prevent mistakes wo hayo had tho words "Te Aro Homo" painted in black letters on white ground on each of our dour-steps. If they will only look for these, errors and loss may be prevented. Yours, Ac., James Smith, TeAro fioußa.
