THE BEST FAMILY NEWSPAPER

One of the modern problems that con-
front the conscientious homemaker is
the wise choice of a daily newspaper.
The ideal family paper must be clean,
free from vulgarity and sen%sationalism,
yet must offer something of interest to
every member Of the household. besides
printing the latest news of the whole
world in reliable and attractive form.
A large contract. you will say. Yes.
but an increasing number of readers
seem to be convinced that The Chicago
Record Herald fairly comes up to the
specifications. This great daily has
made tremendous strides in the last year
or two without lowering its standards
one iota.
Business and professional men have
long regarded The Record Herald as the
best paper of their own reading. be-
cause of its splendid news service and
the reliability of it's financial, aGricul-
tural and market reports. Young men
perhaps find its greatest attraction in
its excellent sporting department, cover
ing the range Of the worlds sports,
Wives and mothers emphatically prefer
The Record Herald on account of its
feminine departments-its daily recipes
and menus. its daily fashion hints, the
Peoples Institute of Domestic Economy
and the many good things in the illus
trated Woman's Section in the Sunday
paper. Children enjoy the Zo~o-Illoeical
Snapshots and other clean, comic pic
lures with the bright stories for boys
and girls every Sunday. And all the
family together can enjoy Arthur N.
Evans's home travel articles, Mr.. XII
ser's humor and verse. Ralph Wilder's
cartoons and other daily features out
side the news columns. +.
The Chicago Record Herald has every
right to call itself the best all-round
family Newspaper in the West.
