The girl with the prettiest ear in
New York.
When it is remembered that this
means an ear Of such excessive beauty
that it can be distinguished from the
other four million ears in town, it is
quite apparent that it must be some
thing truly remarkable. And so it is.
In the first place it made the girl with
the prettiest ear in New York the So
ciety beauty of the season. She was
| and is beautiful otherwise, but it was
her lovely ears which first gave her
fame and practically opened the doors
of sWeldom for her.
Pretty nearly every one has heard of
Mabel Wright. Just now she is trying
to make people forget all about her,
because not many months back she
was divorced, and only a few days
ago became the wife of Count Bella
Itchy. Such rapid matrimonial changes
are apt to cause embarrassments. For
the next year or so New Workers will
see very little of Mabel Wright and
her beautiful ears, as she will live in
Vienna, where her titled husband has
a home.
Whether Count Bella itchy, like
sWelldom, fell in love with Mabel
Wr1ght's ears is a question. To de-
scribe these ears the f1owery language
of the sentimental novelist should, be
employed, because all of their hero
ines have delicate, pink, shell-like
ears. That in a measure describes the
ears of the Countess Itchy, but it does
not do them justice.
THE ARTISTIC EAR.
Some people who have made a study
of the matter claim that the ear is a
true indicator of character. Accord
ing to their way of reasoning, the ears
of the Countess Itchy and those of
other society women would tell many
remarkable things. In the first place.
the ear Of the Countess Itchy is the
artistic ear. There is very little diff
ference in the formation between the
artistic ear and the musical ear The
skin is thin and fine, and the bell or
conCha broader and deeper than in the
average ear. The cartilaginous struc-
ture Of the ear is very elastic, indicat-
ing a sensitive, highly strung nature.
1t is not inconsistent that the Coun-
tess of Itchy should have the artistic
ear. 1t is not generally known that
prior to her debut as a society girl she
made a study of designing and earned
a good income. Her father is a de-
signer and she probably inherited the
art None OF her family ever tmagin
ed that she would one day shine in
swelldom, for they were not overbur-
dened with wealth. and it takes bush
els Of wealth for a newcomer to get
into the magic circle. But then she
had the most beautiful ears that New
York had ever seen, and that solved
the problem. She devoted her artistic
knowledge to the designing of wonder
full day and evening costumes, and the
delicate blending of the colors put to
shame the $1,000 creations imported
from Paris by the richer but less beau
tiful girls.
OF the reigning beauties today, Miss
Kittie Duer can claim the honor of
having the prettiest ears. Her eyes
and neck and complexion are all IN
commonly fine and the gilded young
bucks are ready and willing to wor-
ship any or all of them.
Miss Duer's ears, judged scientific
ally, are indicative of many things
They are dainty, clinging close to the
head, and sometimes are half obscured
by the waves of brown hair ripping
over them. The bell is we'll futed,
showing strong mental development,
and the color is well defined pink. indi-
