Thfe most magnificent fiords, sounds, rivers, and mountains of. this country, s o ibountifullv ibkssed by nature, are all artistically depicted, and are worthy of a place in any home.'.There i s no doubt thatViin time, legislate.,.or try as w©-like, many of the beauty.spQts4vhich'give intense delight to all privileged ,to .behold them, must inevitably] disappear, and therefore, the possession of good. pictures ■of them must frove a never ending source of satisfaction to their fortunate owners. Educationally they are also of immense value, and the recent frequency of picture sales in Wanganui is a decided compliment to the town and its inhabitant^, and we are confident .this sale will by no means prove the least "successful.
