spondent Of the Russ at Mukden telegraphs.
The Russian army is living through
some painful moments Throughout ten
days OF unceasing battle, under the fire
Of shrapnel guns and amid whirlwinds
Of whistling bullets, our men have scarcely
eaten anything and have slept where they
could. The contest has been one OF en-
durance and courage The gray coated
soldiers have accomplished miracle
Tho enemy also seem TO be made Of
steel. They were tired out and had cen
two days without food. but Oyama told his
men the end Of the slaughter would soon
come. and they fought on. Both the Russians
and japanese are fighting heroically. The
infantry on both sides fight as If they despise
death.
-Mukden sleeps; but restlessly. What
will the morrow bring forthf The night
is full Of low murmurs. All is animation
in the hospitals, which are full to over
flowing and the means Of wounded men
are heard everywhere. What will God

On January Ist

the Times Building in New York
City offered for rent Offices at the
rate Of three dollars per square
foot. This is high rent, even
in New York City, but the
chances are that it will be easier
to rent space in the Times Build
ing at three dollars per square
foot than in many buildings at
one dollar. Why?
Because the Times Building
has every modern invention to
make an Office building desirable
"a perfect location, rapid ele-
vators, lighted on all sides, and
other structural advantages which
make it one of the most desirable
buildings in city of skyscrapers.
The American business man is
willing, and even anxious, to pay
for the best when he can get the
best, whether it is in office build
ings or advertising mediums.
The LADIES HOME JOURNAL
offers to the manufacturer an
advertising service, part of which
consists of an accredited welcome
