was the originator of “ PITCHER'S CASTORIA,” the same

This is the original “ PITCHER’S CASTORIA, ' which has been
used in the homes of the Mothers of America for over thirty
years. LOOK CAREFULLY at the wrapper and see that it is
the kind you have always bought
on the
and has the signature o f

President.

'1**.J
**The CHICAGO RECORD is £ model
newspaper in every sense of the w ord."—
Harrisburg (P a.) Call.
“ There is no paper published in America
that so nearly approaches the true jo u rn al­
istic ideal as The CHICAGO R E C O R D ." ^
From “ Newspaperdom" (New York}<
**l have come to the firm conclusion, after
a long test and afte r a wide comparison
w ith the journals o f m any cities and coun­
tries, that The CHICAGO RECORD comes
as near being the ideal daily jo u rn al as we
are for some tim e likely to find on these
m ortal shores."— Prof. J. T. Hatfield in
The Evanston (III.) Index.
