A News Service Without Parallel.

There is ample justification for the claim made by The Chicago Record-Herald that its readers enjoy every day in the week, Sundays included, a news service that is without parallel in range and completeness. The reason is ob vious—the combination of the varied and extensive facilities of two great dailies, The Chicago Record and The Chicago TimesHerald. In addition to the independent news facilities of both papers, The Record-Herald receives the complete news service of the New York Herald and the Associated Press, and when it is considered that its news columns are supplemented by all the special features so popular in The Chicago Record and The Chicago Times-Herald, it will be seen that The Record-Herald holds a unique place among the great newspapers of the United States.
