BETWEEN THE FAR EAST AND EUROPE.

SAVE TIME AND MONEY The Quickest, Cheapest and Safest Route between the Far East and Entopo is via Manchuria and Siberis. The South Manchuria Railway Company's Express Trains are equal to the best in Europe and America, and are timed to connect with other Express Trains and Steamers in the London-Shanghai Route and the Tokyo-Peking Route. Sleeping Cars and Dining Carn are attached to several of the Ordinary Daily Trains.

HOW TO REACH EUROPE.-Travellers from Hongkong should leave for Shanghai by the best steamer to make the connection with the SM. Co. Shanghai- Dairen Mail Steamship Line. The "SAKAKI MARU" leaves Shanghai every TUES DAY, at Noon, direct for Dairen, and connects with the SMB. Weekly Express. This steamer was specially built for the service, is turbine driven, equipped with wireless telegraphy, luxuriously fitted, and erries a doctor on board. (The KORE MARU leaves Shanghai every FRIDAY, at Noon, and calls at Twingtap en route for Dairen.) The Express which leaves Dairen every THURSDAY, connects with the Trans-Siberian Express at Changchun, and passengers arrive at Petrograd nine days later, the whole journey from Hongkong to Petrograd occupying only 16 days.

IMPORTANT TO TRAVELLERS AND TOURISTS.—The S.M.R. Co. has established, under its direct management, a series of Yamate Hotels at Dairen (the Finest Hotel in the Far East), Hoshigaura, Port Arthur, Mukden, and Changchen. All on European lines. Cook's coupons accepted. Tel. Add: "Yamsto,"

Co, and at Ogondaí (Golden Beach), Port Arthur, under the management of the Port Arthur Civil Administration.
