The result of the recent visit made to the Marlborough Sounds by the Scenery Preservation' Commissioners wi]J probably be the reservation of more beauty spots in that part of the Dominion. One of the most beautiful sights in New Zealand is the bush on either side of Tennyson Inlet, off Tawhatanui Reach, \ and it is understood that the commissioners will recommend that the whole of it should be reserved. , Anyone who visits that picturesque region is charmed with the magnificent scenery. The Crown owns some thousands of acres on both sides of the inlet, and it is hoped that the commissioners will be able to induce the Government to preserve the whole of the virgin bush, which extends right to the water's edge. Most of the marketable timber at the head of the inlet was cut out many years ago, and two or three settlers now occupy the lana which has been cleared there. THE CHAKM OF MUSIC. Kings of old have been soothed with music; tired nerves have been relaxed under its benign influence, and old age has quickened and pulsated like the fiery spirits of youth. There is nothing like music. To be abta to produce harmonies —delightful sounds that rest and soothe —surely this is a thing to he desired. Have yeu a piano in your home ? If not f think'what you are' mia'sing. Piano warehouses, now-a-days, are almost philanthropic in the way in which they give opportunities for everyone to have music. For a trifling sum down, and small instalments monthly, the Dresden Piano Co., Ltd., Wellington, will make you the possessor of a superb instrument. You will never miss the payments—they are so microscopic—and in a short time the piano will be your very own. North Island Manager, Mr M. J. Brookes, Local representative, Mr T. B. Hunter.
