Form-Rlindness.
Tchristian bniOn.l


Said a prominent artist of this city the
other day in the course of conversations:
ST have, during many years of art teach
ing, and In various other ways, encOun-
tered peculiar form of visual defect
which is akin to color blindness. Instead,
however, of being insensibie to a differ
ence in color, these people appear to have
lost, if, indeed, they have ever possessed,
the power of perceiving clearly defined
forms-form- blindness, in other words. l
have sometimes placed objects in the
shape of hexagons, or octagons, or deca-
CONS. or even so common shape as q
pentagon or a five pointed star, before
those pupils as test, and almost invar1-
ably they were unable to distinguish one
form from another, even when with care
full distinction the differences were ex-
planned to them.
Then, again, ] have tested them by ask
ing one to draw a figure with certain
number of sides, and the result in this
case would be the same. A request to
draw q decagon would bring forth figure
whose shape has never been, and never
could be, named; and if asked to draw
square the result would be rhomboid, or
some fearful atrocity of angles and lines.
1t was very amusing. This fact is curl
Gus one, and l do not know whether 1t
has ever been treated scientifically or not:
There certainly seems to be a good field
for scientific investigation in this strange
defect, and l suspect that the trouble
would be found to lie very near to that
which causes color blindness, if ever it is
investigated. cztfFta Esr

Cullough and his wife were married they
were nearer a par intellectually than they

and his wife stood still until at last
John grew far away from her:
He went to see her, however, all
the time, and she continued to love
him. One day a busybody among the
women of her acquaintance called upon
Mrs. Mccullough, and straightway began
to abuse John. Said she: They say
John never comes to see you. l have no
use for such men that treat their wives in

@Here Mrs. Mccullough, who had
grown red in the face, and was leaning

Dec. %, 1919. The son of clergyman he
entered the University of Leipsic as a the
illogical student, but he soon abandoned
theology for music Ia 1841 he became
musical director of the theater at Berne,
which position he resigned to accept sim
liar one at Zurich. In 1852 he became
kappelmeister at the Brunswick court. In
the death of Franz Abt music loses one Of
her most appreciated representatives.
Twenty years ago his When the Swallows
Homeward Fly was sung everywhere. That
charming inspiration was little if any more
fortunate than scores of other songs that
flowed from his facile pen. He was the
author of vast number of duets, trios,
ana especially of part-songs for male
voices, in which line he was one Of the
greatest of living composers. The great
merit of his music is its sweetness, its
melody, its expressiveness.
