ST. JOHN'S WOOD ESTATE (Extension)

AND ROYAL PARK,

A well-known Sydney business gentleman, who spent some weeks in Brisbane, said that he saw nothing equal to Ashgrove for climate and scenery, and had there been a tram or moter service out to the

Waterworks thousands would go out daily not only for the scenery, but also to enjoy the pure fresh air which is equal to that of the Blue Mountains of New South Wales.

Waterworks Road,

ASHGROVE.

Will be on the Market in a few days, and is now

open for Inspection.

A gentleman who is known as the "King of the North," and who has freehold lands at Sydney, Brisbane, Townsville, and China, is also a property owner at St. John's Wood, where he is erecting palatial build-ings, including a first-class jazz hall.

Another purchaser at St John's Wood is a famous contractor whose last contract in Queensland ran into one and a half million sterling.

What did His Majesty the King say about St. John's Wood?

"He was delighted with the place and its glorious sur-roundings, and, moreover, it reminded him of the

Manor Plains of Sussex, England."

The luxuriousness of the trees and height of mountains shade the place from Westerly winds and dust, and keep it warm in Winter and cool in Summer.

The rippling of over a mile --of fresh, running water, the sweetly singing birds, the laughing Kookaburra. the rustling noise of the leaves, all contribute to the charm of the place.

Not only the stillness, quiteness and "countryfiedbut also the 'pure exhilarating air' all delighted

His Majesty.

St. John's Wood, aptly named the Switzerland of Queensland on account of its beauty, has been sold to the best 'people in the State-people of wealth, repute, and undoubted position. This alone will make the name of St. John's Wood a hall mark of distinction and exclusiveness. ,

St. John's Wood Extension and Royal Park. (The pick of the basket.) They have been surveyed into artistic blocks for home

sites. Roads have formed.

The Royal Park and St. John's Wood Extension will be on the market in the course of a few days. Salesmen are not required,

they sell themselves. This is an exceptional opportunity for one who wise to to secure some healthy and beautiful home sites. Away from the flickering lights, the hustle, bustle, and grime of the city. Which is the better, a drive

through deadly dust which creates more diseases than , one could numerate, or a spin through pure, fresh air and glorious scenery?

Is it better to live in an unhealthy atmosphere because

one's mother-in-law is next door? Or to live where that which gives

health abounds morning, noon, and night, not only for one's self, but for all who are near and dear.

For those who can

afford to go for a holiday for health the dusty road will suit.

For. those who want to go for a holiday for pleasure

turn your car towards Ashgrove, and see for yourself. The fact that 230 houses have been erected within the last eighteen months and are still going up speaks all

languages for ASHGROVE.

Some time ago the Vendor of St. John's Wood advertised in the Public Press that he would give £100 to the Brisbane Hospital if any man could sleep the hottest night in summer without warm blankets at St. John's Wood. A-well-known Professional City Gentleman accepted the challenge and went out for the night to St. John's Wood anticipating that in the morning he would come back with the century for the hospital. To his surprise the cool, pure mountain air did not let him gratify his ambition.

At Royal Park there is a Dance Hall known as St. John's Hall, and a company of energetic young fellows are go- ing to erect a log cabin in connection with same. They intend catering for private and public dances, with first-class

music.

On Sundays between 3 and 4 o'clock those who wish to avail themselves of the fresh air and beautiful scenery can get there in a five-mile spin.

Free Afternoon Tea

at ST. JOHN'S HALL.

One of the most successful busi-ness gentlemen in the State writes:- Over forty years ago I went to live in Ashgrove. In the meantime he has had several trips around the world, not for health, but for pleasure. He still is equal to a seven-mile walk before breakfast In his opinion there is no place like Ashgrove, and attributes his exceptionally good health and success to the beautiful climate.

A well-known city professional gentleman's experience :-"Over 30 years ago I went to live near Ash-grove in very poor health." He is still there, and to use his own words he has not had any occasion to go South for a holiday ever since.
