Russians May Abandon Mukden.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 6, 1920 a. M
1t is impossible at this hour to obtain
any statement from the authorities re-
garding the reported preparations for
the abandonment of Mukden.
The bulletin from there saying this
is contemplated is the first intimation
that such a course is contemplated. II
1t turns out to be true, 1t means the
abandonment OF the whole of southern
Manchuria and the winding up OF the
present campaign.
In fact, should Mukden be evacuated
there would be no point for wintering
the army of quarter of million with
its many wounded, short of Harbin.
On the other hand, the evacuation of
Mukden would give Field Marshal Oy-
ANA commodious quarters and the
practical control of two lines of rail-
way. The Kinchow-Hsinmintin line,
tapping rich Chinese territory, stops
little short of Mukden. with which 1t is
connected by good wagon road.
The report of the prospective evacu-
alton of Mukden, If well founded,
would indicate that the Gripping eff
feet of the Lao Yang fighting on ku-
ropatkin's army is more serious than
has as yet been intimated.
A summary of the war situation to
date shows that the whole Russian
army, or at least portion of it, is al
ready above Yentai station and is
pushing on toward Mukden.
Field Marshal Oyama's entire army
has crossed the Taitse river and part
of It is hanging on to kuropatkin's
flank.
A strong flanking column on the
east is pushing rapidly north in the
effort to head off the Russians.
Against this column General kuro-
patkin has sent out a strong cavalry
division to the northeast, which 1t Is
believed is already in position to
check the Japanese flankers. while to
the westward Kuropatkin is moving
division toward Sinmintin, thirty miles
west of Mukden, to meet any interfer-
ence that may be attempted from the
direction of Yinkow or New Chwang.
Oyamas advance is reported to be
engaging the Russian rear, but 1t Is
not expected to develop anything more
serious than series OF rear-guard 'ac-
tions tending to harass General kuro-
patkin's retreat.
The Japanese have thrown a strong
aanking column across the Taitse
river at Benitzu. about thirty miles
northeast of Lao Yang. This column
is hurrying to the northeast and en-
deavoring to get in between the Rus-
sian army and Mukden.
1t is against this movement that
Kuropatkin has dispatched General
Rennenkampf with strong Cossack
division. which it Is believed is already
blocking the eastern high road.
Kuropatkin has three roads over
which he is marching toward Mukden,
beside the double-tracked railroad The
latter is chiefly occupied in the trans.
portation of guns and of equipment. OF
which there is a great quantity. The
soldiers are marching In light order,
and most of the wounded have already
been dispatched north by rail.
General Kuropatkin. in a telegram TO
the general staff filed at i p. m. sep
tember 5th. north of fentai, says the

BUILDING FOOD
To Bring the Babies Around.

When a little human machine Tor
large one) goes wrong. nothing Is SO
important as the selection of food
which will always bring it around
again.
MY little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being SO weak, he was frequently
thrown into commissions" says Col
orado mother.
81 decided change might help, so
took him to Kansas City for visit.
When we got there he was so very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
When I reached my sisters homo
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although
had never used the food, we got some
and for a few days gave him just the
Juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He
got stronger so quickly we were soon
feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and
in wonderfully short time he fat
tened right up and became strong
and well.
THAT showed me something worth
knowing and, when later on my girl
came, l raised her on Grape-Nuts and
she is n strong healthy baby and has
Cen. You will see from the little
photograph l send you what a strong.
chubby youngster the boy is now, but
he didn't look anything like that be-
fore we found this nourishing food.
Grape Nuts nourished him back to
strength when he was so weak he
couldn't keep any other food on his
stomach" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
All children can be built to more
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape Nuts and cream. The food
contains the elements nature de-
mands, from which to make the soft
gray filing in the nerve centers and
brain. A well fed brain and strong,
sturdy nerves absolutely insure
healthy body.

little book, "The Road to Wellville."

guard south of Yentai, the fight con-
tinuing until Monday. The telegram
details the precautions taken to
checkmate the Japanese flankers.
Kuropatkin estimates his losses up
to and including September 4th at
10000. This is considered to be very
conservative figure. The losses to the
Japanese probably double this num-
ber. owing to their positions as at
tackers.
kuropatkin says nothing regarding
the loss of guns. but 1t is probable that
some of the heavier emplaced guns at
Lao Yang had to be abandoned.
There is no truth either in the re-
port that Kuropatkin has been
wounded or that Lieutenant General
Linevitch is moving to his support.
General Linevitch is still at Vladivos-
tok,

When asked for his reason for SO

nier related the following experience:
II recommend Dodds Kidney

Dodd's Kidney Pills make the old
