  A SPLENDID NEWSPAPER YARN.

  A Yellow Journalist.

  By Miriam Michelson, Author of "In the Bishop's Carriage," etc.Illustrated. 12mo. Ornamental Cloth, $1.50.

  This novel has the true newspaper thrill in it from beginning to end.The intense desire to "cover" one's assignment completely and well isbrought out in the midst of the melodramatic atmosphere in which amodern newspaper woman must live. The stories are all true to life, andmixed with the excitement there is a wealth of humor and pathos.

  "There is a dash about 'A Yellow Journalist' that exhilarates like afresh breeze on a sharp winter morning."--_Chicago Record-Herald_.

  "The book is bright and entertaining."--_Minneapolis Tribune_.

  "There are just a few writers who have succeeded in reducing to paperthe atmosphere of a newspaper office, and since the appearance of 'AYellow Journalist,' Miriam Michelson must be numbered amongthem."--_The Bookman_.

  "Miss Michelson's work has found great favor. The stories contained inthis book are characteristic."--_Philadelphia Public Ledger_.

  "Only one with the genuine journalistic instinct, who has agonized overa story and known the ecstacy of a 'beat' and the anguish of being beat,can write of news-gathering as Miss Michelson does. But she has othergood qualities in addition to these--a good dramatic instinct, a piquanthumor, and a knowledge of human nature. The fourteen chapters of 'AYellow Journalist' are mighty interesting reading."--_BaltimoreNews_.
