familiar He sat down with his flute and the sound adapted itself to Old Kentucky Home Old Folks at Home Old Billy Barker and many other familiar old pieces He then went in search of the and just

it will take thousand years before the world comes to any adequate appreciation of what God did when he planned and the infinite and overmastering architecture of the human ear The most of it is

Helmholtz and Conte and DeBlainville and Rank and Buck have attempted to walk the Ap pian Way of the human car but the mysterious pathway has never been fully trodden but by two feet the foot of sound

or precious metals The Temple of Jerusalem was partly built by the contribution of and Homer in the Iliad speaks of Hera the three bright drops lice glittering gems suspended from the car and many of the adornments of modern times were only copies of her ear jewels found in Pompeiian museum and Etruscan vase But while the outer ear may be adorned by human art the middle and the internal ear are adorned and garnished only by the hand of the Lord Almighty The stroke of a key of yonder organ sets the air vibrating and the external ear catches the sound and passes it on through the boneletsof the middle ear to the ear and the 3000 fibers of the human brain take up the vibration and roll the sound on into the soul The hidden machinery of the ear is by physiologists called by the names of things familiar to us like the hammer something to the anvil something to be the stir rup of the saddle with which we mount thin the drum beaten in the the harpstrings to be swept with music Coiled like a snail shell by which one of the innermost passages of the ear is actually a the sound to ascend likj a bent tube of a heating apparatus taking that which enters round a labyrinth with wonderful passages into which the thought enters only to be lost in bewilderment A muscle contracting when the noise is too loud just as the pupil of the eye contracts when the light is too glaring The ex ternal ear is defended by wax which by its bitterness discourages inscctile invasion The internal ear is embed ded in what is by far the hardest bone of the human system a very rock of defiance The ear is so strange a contrivance that by the estimate of one scientist it can catch the sound of 73700 vibra tions in a second The outer ear tak ing in all kinds of sounds whether the crash of an avalanche or the hum of a bee The sound passing to the inner door of the outside car halts until an other mechanism divine mechanism passes it on by the bonebtsof the mid dle ear and coming to the
