Chicago Man Willing to Part With

Chicago Telegram to The Philadelphia
 Three hundred dollars is the market price for healthy human ear. Dr. FL mer k Prescott, a skin-grafting special ISL desires two ears in an unusual oper- atlon he wishes to perform. Already he has received two offers. One Is from paralytic 50 years of age, and the other from cripple half that age. Both men declared they needed the cash more than the ear.
 Some obstacles may prevent the phy- Sician from realizing his hopes. Justice Biume informed him today that severing healthy ear from person would be mayhem. State Attorney neneen told the doctor, however, that, in his opinion, 1t would be no crime. This conflicting opinion has caused the expert some worry.
