They care little for truth and a great deal for temporary sensation. It is not so with THE CHICAGO RECORD. Ihe success of THE RECORD rests upon its reliability. It prints the news—all the news—and tells the truth about it. It is the only American newspaper outside New York city that has its own exclusive dispatch boat service and its ' own staff correspondents and artists at the front in both hemispheres. It is the best illustrated daily newspaper in the world.l Its war news service is unapproachably the best. J Says the Urbana (111.) Daily Courier: 1 “We read the war news in the other papers, then we turn to THE CHICAGO RECORD to see how much of it is true.” Sold by newsdealers averywhere and subscriptions received by all postmasters.
