Ii Hung ChangS Ear Shows Perseverance, Obsti-
macy, Superstition and Honest Credulity.
NEW SCIENCE SOON TO BE FULLY EXPLOITED
Martineli, New Papal Delegate, Has Pous Ear
with Touch of Business
BRYANs EAR SAYS HI. WILL Be AN OLD MAN

Among the new human-interest books
being brought out will be one telling char
acter from the ear by a complete and most
scientific system. Odd things have been
written about ear reading, but the new
book will have all the diverse facts brought
together to make complete work upon TIN,
study OF the ear. It's size and shape are as
important in character reading as the size
and shape OF the head. --
The most beautiful ears are plous ears.
Clergymen have ears as perfect assea shells,
and, singularly enough, not unlike them.
The most perfect contour and the most dell
cate depths are found in these ears, and the
loveliest tints.
THE PAPAL EAR
A perfect ear should have decided nm
and a depression at the top On the side
nearest the face. This should be very pro-
noupced. An ear that is fiat here is irppcr-
feet and shows defective character. Inc
ear OF Martinelli, the new papal delegate
is the most typically pious ear. 1t Is per-
feet in shape, like the ear or Michael
Angelo saint. And its only defect, from an
artistic standpoint, is thick lower lobe,
which means a great deal OF business abii-
ity. A pious ear with business ability
suggests a queer combination, Bat 1t is one
that foreshadows success The pope, whose
pious ear artists never tire OF drawing, rs
lacking in the thick lower lobe. But his
holiness is not expected to be business
man.
An ear that all tapers toward business
is that of John ID. Rockefeller. The men
tai portion of any ear is the upper part II
the ca T is broad and spreading at the top,
great mentality is shown II this tapers
gradually to a long, thick point it means
business ability to a concentrated degree.
Nearly alimen who have come fronrthe desk
to afflueuce have these broad ears at top.
tapering to very thick, narrow lobes.
Ii HUNG CHANGES EARS.
The ear OF our illustrious visitor Ii
Hung Chang. stands out in bold reliefagainst
his sha ven head It's 4 good ear, with Ger
ia in pecu ia rites
1t has the very thick outside rim. This
means credulity. A man with a thick
outside rim on his ear will believe II he
hears. and will be most obstinate in follow
ing it up. He ha s the ear OF superstition,
and viii be ruled by words rather than by
judgment.
Ii Hung Chang is saved by the depth OF
his ear, and its perfect inside markings
There are good depressions around the ear
cavity, denoting good memory; Ind there
is not shallow portion in the ear. The
business lower lobe is well developed, and
there is the honest" clause. This is the
bringing up OF the lobe upon the side of the
face.
1t is not fair to say that all honest men
can point to n high lobe, standing well
toward the cheek. But an men who have
this lobe are honest 1t means Upright
ness OF character Very truthful persons
have the lobe almost grown fast tothe cheek.
1t comes from long-cont;nued heritage Of
truth. II you find a man in States prison
with this big adherent globe, you may
question him, and instead OF being defiant
he will burst into tears He has gone con
trary to his disposition by some strange
trick of chance.
EAR OF NANsEN.
Nansen's ear shows the lack of the
business ability. There is no lobe, and
the rim extends all around the ear. II
Nansen Could have had the business lobe,
he would have been made independently
rich out of that expedition that took him
within degrees of the pole. He would
have hurried home to civilization-and
the book publishers. And he would have
demanded a thousand for every degree he
traversed beyond what man has douc.
There is another bad thing about the
Nansen ear. 1t lacks balance. There is
piece bitten out OF the common sense
spot. Common-sense is a mixture OF
mentality and morality. The mentality
of the explorer is one-sided, and the
morality has hicks in it. This means
that the ear belongs to a man of one
idea; man who could not be a fair
and equable judge, il he were paid
million n year to sit upon the beach. 1t
is not a good ear for a man to have,
unless he has a saving trait connected
with it. That trait Is the closeness of
the ear to the head. Cranks have these
irregular defective mental and moral
ears, standing far out from the center
OF thought. Nansen's hugs close to it.
Let mans ear be ever so bad in its
markings, yet il it lies close to the head
1t is all right for him.
TEsLA'S MARKINGS.
An ear that stands out is the ear of
