WOMAN TAXIDERMIST.—Miss M. Ward-Smith, of Ladbrooks, is probably the only woman taxidermist in either Australia and New Zealand, and one of the few in the world. She is seen above with some of the animals of her private museum. The peacock beside which Miss Ward-Smith is standing, once strutted about her garden, and was one of her first attempts at the art of taxidermy. It is a very beautiful bird, and experts describe it as a firstclass job.
