"The Life Of Ben Harrison" by the author
of Ben Hur-Gen. Lew Wallace-is one of
the finest biographical works which has ever
been published in this country. Gen. Wallace
is writer eminently suited for this work.
Aside from mastery style of composition
which has given him place in the hearts of
American readers second to no other writer
he has had the advantage of a long and inti-
mate personal friendship with Gen. Harrison
He traces the career of the Republican Stan.
dard bearer through the various vicissitudes
of life with a wonderful skill and faithful
attention to the details always
essential to the finished picture
His subject is certainly most
worthy one. General Harrison is by all
odds the ablest son of family which has
produced many able sons. His career has
been his own. Step by step he has won his
way by his own commanding abilities and
untfring energy from poverty and obscurity
into the front rank of distinguished Ameri-
can citizens. His life has been pure and
open one without blot and without a blem-
ish. 1t is the life of typical American
citizen which Gen. Wallace por-
trays. A life which shows the
promise that should animate true American
manhood everywhere. As citizen, a SOL
der, and a statesman, Gen. Harrison has
honored every position to which he has been
called, and faithfully kept every trust i'm
posed upon him, and when he is called next
November by the voice of the American peo-
pie to the executive chair of this nation,
the country will have a President who will
who have dignifed that Office in years gone
