PerpIexity Among
the Legal Fraternity

The legal fraternity are somewhat
puzzled over the question of the proper
course to pursue in the filing Of mort
cages, two laws which were apparently
been passed by the last Legislature, un-
der rather singular circumstances. Sen
ate bill No. 20, which in brief pro-
vides for the filing Of al mortgages
with the county clerk, was passed by
the House on the 10th Of February. On
the same day House bill No. 104, pro-
vidlng that chattel mortgages shall be
filed with the county recorder in each
county where there is such an officer,
was passed by the senate. Then to add
to the perplexing circumstances, both
bills were signed by the president and
speaker on the 18th of February. The
only point of difference in the time
or action on the measures was that the
senate bill was approved on the goth Of
February, whereas the House bill was
not filed in the office Of secretary Of
state (such filing being equivalent to
approvaD until February 22d. 1t is
thought by some Of the leading lawyers
that inasmuch as both bills were passed
ON the same day, the construction
to be placed will be that they are one
and the same act, and that the House
bill shall apply where there is
a recorder Of conveyapces, and that
under other circumstances the senate
bill will be operative.

INFERIOR GOODS.

The only safe way for purchasers is
to insist on having the genuine article,
and not allow themselves to be swim
died by having plasters said to be "just
as good" or Containing superior in

are only tricks to sell inferior goods
that no more compare with Allcock's s
Porous Plasters than copper does with
gold. One trial of Allcocks Porous
Plasters will convince the most skep-
teal OF their merits,
