...most scurrilous keyhole peeper. For Manhattan's National Enquirer (circ. 119,055), a Sunday tabloid ("The World's Liveliest Paper") that caters to subway society with a churnful of cheesecake, a flutter of racing tips and leering feature stories (LANA TURNER: A GIRL NEEDS MORE THAN A BOSOM), Miller writes what is probably the yeastiest scandal column printed anywhere. Besides his own bylined sinerama each week, thick-set ("six feet when I stand up straight") John Miller also grinds out five other Enquirer features: a tearjerker called "Millerdramas," a trade-talky TV column bylined John Jay, "Inside Politics...

...little girl "playing at marriage" in the Schönbrunn Palace galleries with a little boy prodigy named Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. She was only 14 when her mother and Louis XV sealed their Franco-Austrian alliance by giving her in marriage to the French Dauphin. "Has she any bosom?" asked the aging wolf Louis XV of the emissary who helped arrange the marriage. "Sire, I did not take the liberty of carrying my eyes so far," replied the courtier. "You are a fool," laughed the monarch. "It's the first thing one looks at in a woman...
