A WORK OF ART. One of the most
beautiful scenic views ever offered for
sale is now on display in Woodcock's
store window. 1t is direct photograph
by Charles A. Townsend and was taken
from the walk in front of the T. B. Dins-
more residence on Church street, looking
towards the foot of the square 1t con
tains glimpses of the handsome lawns of
the Dinsmore and A. C. Burgess residences,
with the rustic stone wall that separates
them, the long row of towering and ma
jestic elm trees between the sidewalk
and the street, while the fancy grasses
that fringe the side of the walk appear
like tropical growth. In the immediate
foreground is a trellised Towering grape
vine and in the distance, seemingly rods
upon rods away, appear numerous pruned
that Mr.. Townsend has ever seemed to
be pleased with and then he casually re-
marked: SIT is the best picture have

YESTERDAYS LUXURY is TODAY'S
NECESSITY. The public health nurse is
almost as we'll recognized feature of
the up-to-date city equipment as the
water supply, the fire department, the
Illuminating plant, or any other indis-
pensable. Belfast has had such a nurse
for a year. Shall we give her up now,
and face the winter, each household with
its own nursing problem to solve, if sick
ness comes; or, shall we provide ourselves
with public health nurse whose services
we may all share at but slight individual
expense? The Red Cross maintained our
MUSE last year. Part of your Red Cross
dues goes for the same purpose this year,
if the rest of the necessary $1,000 can be
raised. Join the Red Cross and help!
Also help by personal subscriptions as
large as you can make them, to raise the
deficit. Every little helps. Miss Isabel
CHM, 10 High street, is the treasurer.
