The Real Secret of the unparalleled success of The Chicago Daily News may be found in t-.vo distinguishing characteristics, which more than anything else have con tributed to its remarkable growth. First : —lt is a Daily Paper for Busy People. The jicoplc of the busy West appreciate keen ly the necessity of an intelligent knowledge of the world’s daily doings, but they arc too busy to waste valuable tunc in searching through a cumbrous “ blanket-sheet ” news paper for the real news of art, literature, science, religion, politics, and the thousand and-onc things which make up modern civ ilization. They want news—nil the news hut they don’t want it concealed in nn over powering massoT the trivial and inconsequen tial.. It is because The Chicago Daily ■News is “ all wheat and no chafff that its circulation is over “ a million a iocck." Second: —lt is an Independent, Truth-telling Newspaper. The people demand a fair, im partial, independent newspaper,which gives all the news, and gives it free from the taint of partisan bias. With no mere political am bition to gratify, no 44 ax to grind,” the im partial, independent newspaper mny truly ba 44 guide, philosopher nnd friend ” to honest men of every shade cf political faith; and this is why Tiie Chicago Daily News ho 3 to ■ day a circulation of over “a million a week." * The Chicago Daily News now adds to these two comprehensive elements cf popu larity, a third, in its unparalleled reduction of price to ONE CENT A DAY. It is always large enough,—never too large. The Chicago Daily News is for sale by all newsdealers nt One Cent per copy, 05 will l:c mailed, postage paid, for fy.ro per year, or ry cents per month. ‘1 ho fanner and mechanic can now afford, cs well as the merchant and professional man, to have his metropolitan daily.
