"The Man Higher tip," pub llsbed by tbe Bobbs-Merrill com pany, tbe best known book critics agree, and that he i. emtuenily qualified to handle such a thenie may be gleaned by a glance at his career. Karly in life Mr Miller became u Student of civic problems, which took him Into political fields, where was of fered the Opportunity of studying the "machine" and lis workings at close range. During several years be en tered heartily Into the activities of campaigns, making speeches and de livering lectures, and all this time was getting Inside facts of the methods of the wurd heeler, tbe party boss and the grafter. In The Man Higher Up" these facts are woven Into a tensely day of days, the "glorious fourteenth" when all loyal Frenchmen with repub lican blood in their veins and patriot ic sentiments in their minds turn themselves loose to celebrate the an niversary of that other grim and ter rible fourteenth of July, when the Bastile, a symbol of kingly tyranny, fell before the onslaught of a mob, shouting "Liberie, Fraternlte et Egal ite." True, firecrackers are taboo and there is no heavyweight championship u auu '0 the F-onoh national holiday. Yet today all is merry as a marriage bell in this city of light and laughter, and the victory of a black Johnson over a white Jeffries could add nothing to the joyoasness of the occasion. la; Mrs. Addie Saling, La Grande: Mrs. John Brookler.
