Ars alb : Core feeling through rubrics

Core of Ars alb through rubrics :-

As we all know Ars alb is known as one of the most fastidious remedies in our materia medica.

In Kent's Repertory, Master Kent has given only 2 remedies under rubric :

MIND - FASTIDIOUS - Ars, Nux

So, let us explain it's journey of Ars with this.
Fastidious is understood as being neat and clean, perfect in work etc but it's not complete meaning.
If we see it's proper dictionary meaning we get :

1. having high and often capricious  standards 
2. difficult to please
3.reflecting a meticulous, sensitive, or demanding attitude

So, what we understand from this is fastidious persons are hard to please. We can not satisfy their demand. They expect more and more perfection.
Ars is under this rubric due to...

Mind - Rest - can not rest when things are not in the proper place

We known example from MM is though Ars is weak he wakes up from bed and corrects the tilted frame on the wall.
Second clinical example i will give is, unless and untill Ars is completely cured he does not feels relaxed and does not let others feel relaxed. He feels how can others take rest while i am sick. If I can not take rest, you should not. Ars tortures the family members who actually help him in sickness.

Mind - Tormenting  - others
Mind - Biting - tumbler

He feels i have taken care and took responsibility of all when I was sick.

MIND - CARES, full of - relatives, about
MIND - CARES, full of - others, about
MIND - RESPONSIBILITY - taking responsibility too seriously

This is because Ars loves his family a lot.

MIND - LOVE - family, for

So, it's now their turn to help me. This is BUSINESS of ars.
So, the rubric...

MIND - TALKING - BUSINESS, OF

Business means give and take phenomenon. That too with the intention of getting profit.

At this point if doctor says Ars why you are so rude and making others suffer for you.
Ars says if they will not help me out then who will ? It's okay to order them to help me when I am sick. So, here he does not feels guilty of being rude with others.

MIND - CRUELTY - loves to make people and animal suffer
MIND - MORAL FEELING, WANT OF - criminal, without remorse; disposition to become a

Second facet of fastidious of Ars alb is presentation.

Ars alb is fastidious only externally as per his cleanliness is concerned.
Ars's table is neat and clean from others side but very messy, disordered and sometimes even dirty from his side which is hidden properly. He will not let others know this.

MIND - HIDING - himself - fear, on account of

Ars is in general very caring and anxious about children. Their education, career and future.

MIND - ANXIETY - children, about his

But he is very miser. He does not easily spend money.

MIND - AVARICE

But, when his children squanders his hard earned money he gets hurted. He becomes anxious about his future now.

MIND - ANXIETY - future, about

Now, he feels children especially sons will expect money from me and I will not let them squander it. At this time safe place is daughters place. It is said 'Everyone should have at least one daughter because she loves and takes care of parents in their last days'. And ars feels daughter will not demand money from me...This is again business sense of Ars.
So, he shifts to daughters place.

MIND - ESCAPE , attempts to - visit his daughter; wants to
