Popular Cartoons.

The art of newspaper illustration in
its present form is a development of
recent years. Newspaper cartoons
have become most popular feature Of
up. to-date metropolitan daily papers.
The unique and catchy drawings now
appearing daily on the front page of
The Chicago Record Herald is one of
the many special features of the great
paper. The Record Herald has been
fortunate in securing one of the best
young artists in the country to carry
out its popular policy of presenting
each day a humorous and good natured
cartoon. Mr.. Ralph Wider is one of
the coming men in newspaper work.
His success has been rapid. He shows
all of the good-natured humor aud the
brighter side of everyday common life
which has carried his work to a very
popular success. His drawings are on
all of the various subjects of popular
interest, political and otherwise Cur
rent events are wildly portrayed in a
way that pleases, yet often giving
just criticism in a way that does not
etfend. Through his excellent work
on eastern magazines Mr.. Wider first
attracted universal attention. The
Record Herald recognized in him at
once a cartoonist Of unusual promise,
and congratulates its readers on hay-
ing been fortunate enough TO engage
him.
