A BEAUTIFUL EA1L
6INGULAR CASE OF A PATHETIC
OUTGROWTH OF SENSIBILITY.
Story Told to an Expert In Xcrvoufl
Affections A Particularly Hideous
i'nir of Ears A Sort or Holy Grail
Quest.
I heard of a patholic outgrowth or ncrvoua
feasibility the other da3'. A professional
man who lives at tho West End, and who is
not only a painfully self-conscious innn, but
also one given to observing things about him
with great minuteness, has becomo so acutely
susceptible to the essential ugliness of tho
human car that he scarcely sees anything else
in tho people about him than their ears. To
a physician, an expei fc in nervous uflvclions,
whom ho was wise enough to consult, this
gentleman told Lis story somewhat after this
fashion: "Jt was as many as five or six years
ago that the eight of a particulai ly hideous
pair of ears, one of which had been slit in a
ghastly maimer in somo accident or fight, s-et
nie to reflecting on tho extraordinary caprice
of Providence in sotting, m tho mo3E conspic
uous placo upon tho head of its curious
earthly achievement, such utterly absurd end
unsightly contrivances as liunjaneais. The
car is useful, no doubt; but might not an in
finite ingenuity and nn omnipotent choico
have provided man with an auditor nppli
anco lesj hideous than this convoluted ex
crescence? studying it ur.
"I was led to ask myself, is thcro anypuch
thing as a Txsuiliful human car? I looked up
all tho passages in polito literature in which
the human car is i efcrrcd to, and found not
only that Mich passages are extremely few,
but that the beauty referred to all tho com
parisons, of delicate, i ink edged feminine to
tho translucent inteiiors of sea shells, and the
like, are .simply comparative. 2U po t ever
thought, so far as 1 could find, of finding ab
solute beauty iu tho car. It is only as a
pendent or an accompaniment, less hideous
than usual, to tho bwmtiiul head and fa"e of
n lovely woman, that tho actual ear ltsdf, as
npart iroui thu faculty of hearing, over bo
comes tolerable in poetry. Jn a. I tho car is
a thing to be dissembled; no realist v.as ever
ko unblushing as faithfully to paint tho ear as
it is. Photography reveals it in all Us ugli
ness; but poolry bears the jime relation to
art that tne dissection of the body does to tho
love of Immauuy.
'"Tho 1 unning of these through rcy mind
led ino to start a sort of Holy Gi nil quest for
a ruJly beautiful human ear, and at tho
tamo limp 1 found myself searching out,
uheuover I got upon a streetcar or a railway
train, and as I walked down the crov.ded
streets, all tho ugliest eas-s, with tho in
stinct! 'o eagerness of a connoisseur. Tho oir
habit grow upon me. I became a f-ort of col
lector of ears. V.'hen 1 cams into a railway
train filled with people, my oyo ran down tho
long rows of cars next tho akloto too whether
there was a vacancy in the doviou3 lines
that I might fill with my own. That low
of ears, to n, mau who had fallen into tho
habit of observing nothing olsa but the ears,
was hornbly suggestive of a i,ca serpcntl
KOTHir.'G HUT UAIIS, KARS, EARS.
"I say that all this began iivo or six j ears
ago; but, of course, my mania for Mich it
has S)ecome did not all at once take this seri
ous form. It has been a gradual growth.
In'ow 1 find it threatening, perhaps not my
mental balance, for I feel capable of main
taining that, but my peace of mind certainly,
and all my old sensibility to the beauty of tho
human form and tho loveliness of life about
me. lily old keen senso of tho beautiful I
lament, as a fallen angel might lament tho
joys of paradioe. For mo there is nothing in
the world but eare, ears, cars. The pleasuio
that 1 hometimes feel in meeting a specimen
less hideous than the ivst does not ri'ay me
for tho o.Te.; jo w Inch the uniform dead level
of ill-shapen growth inflicts upon ine; and I
am rcMMveJ, if medical science can do any
thing for so strange a malady, to tako tho
utmost possible advantage of it. If it could
Hnntluenco my organs of wight as to make it
impo.-sil)le for mo e or again to ieo tho hu
man ear at all, it would be a consummation
devoutly to bo w ished."
I understand that tho eminent physician
consulted in this case was completely nou-plusf-ed
for a time, but has ut hist succeeded
in so influencing tho Mill'erer's thoughts and
attention by diverting them to other chim
in. Is that Le is already somewhat less poign
antly conscious of the 1 arc ho sees; thut tho
doctor is, in fact, fightmg ths o'.d mania with
a now 0110, and intends, to check the now be
ioro it, in its tm 11, shad Jake possesion of tho
patient, as did the other. The. ''u, I havo
no doubt, will Miggofc to more than 0110
reader sjinotiiing of a similar sort in his
knowledge or experience. It is only one of
mam" morbid oulgiowtlw of the keen con
sciousness, tho rawness of sensibility that
overwork and intense mental htrain havo
fcujcrinduced. Boston Post.
Support of Homo Artiits.
Ono artist .said that the dealers did mora
in foreign pictures in a day in actual money
than tho studios with thtir fccores of artists
do in n month. There i3 no mere conclusive
proof that support is Licking than is found in
tho Vict that young artists just now are com
pelled to neglect their serious work and do
what they can of an ephemeral or business
like character in order to meet their actual
bread and butter bills. The rent has to be
paid, even if customers do not come, dinner
lias to bo bought and tobacco must bo had.
So if tho great picture on the easel cannot bo
sold for 1,000, why something must bo
dono which will hell immediately for .$10.
And so thcs young follows get into idl kinds
of pictorial work.

Fort Scott, Kansas, is having a wonderful growth and one
that appears to he solid. It cannot well he otherwise with
the natural adva-ntages she has for manufacturing. She
has unlimited supplies of coal, natural gas, flagstone, ce
ment rock and pure water. She has eight railroads, a large
jobbing trade, and is the natural distributing point for
Southwestern Kansas and the Indian Territory, and is the
healthiest city in the state. The Investment and Improve
ment Company, through their agents, S. F. Scott & Co., will
commencing April 19, have a grand auction sale of 1,200
choice residence lots joining the city limits and only one
mile from the postoff'ce. They offer special inducements
to non-residents. Terms of sale are one-third cash, balance
in one and two shears at 8 per cent. There is 5o per cent in
60 days on your investment. Street cars traverse the en
tire addition; it is highly lighted by gas and the streets are
graded. Fort Scott is destined to be, and is, the only manu- N
facturing city in the state.
