At the request of a number of our patrons, we have .made our "Wants and Oft'ers" column a part of our news depart¬ ment, and henceforth this information, of a business character of value to all our readers, will be found immediately following the Real Estate Department. This "Wants and Offers" column will be open to all who have special requirements. By stating their necessities here, they speak at the very centre of the real estate and building interests of this city, and obtain thereby not only an interested audience, but one of incomparably greater efficiency than is to be obtained in any other manner. Every re.ider of the Record and Guide counts. The attention of the "trade" Is secured In its columns, as well as the attention of real estate investors, real estate owners, building operators, banks, financial institutions, lawyers, the big estates, investors seeking an outlet for capital, architects, bufiding material deal¬ ers, and all who directly or indirectly are interested in real estate. The clientele of the Record and Guide is one of the richest In the world. The Record and Guide is one of the designated official papers of the City of New Tork. In the American Newspaper Directory, just published, the Record and Guide Is classed among the "double bullseye" journals, of which there are only a few in the United States, for the extraordinary value of its circulation. The "Wants and Offers" column offers a rare opportunity for business. Our readers will peruse it with interest and profit. ^ Gossip of the Week, SOUTH OF .jOTH STREET. 44TH ST.—George S.
