THE NUMBER r

Among the numbers which have
been regarded with reverence by many
races of people, the number three Is
held to be pre-eminently significant.
The sacred writings of all nations re-
peat his number constantly. Thus
there is the trinity Ofthe Godhead; the
three dispensationS-the Patriarchal,
the Jewish and the Christian the
three great NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Isaac
and Jacob. In SolOmon'S temple
everything was tripartiie. Samuel
was called three times; sampson de-
ceiyed Delilah thrice; three men we're
placed in the fiery furnace; Jonas was
three days in the whales belly. Inc
Greeks had three classes OF deities-
celestial, terrestrial and infernal; their
oracles were delivered from a tripod.
In their mythology Chimara, Geryon
and Cerberus had three heads. There
were three graces, three Parc9 and
three Eumenides. Three daughters
Of Hesperus guarded the golden apples
of Juno. The same reverence for
three exists among the Romans, the
Persians. the Celts, Goths, Scandinav-
ians and all the Pagan nations. The
Chinese have a triad society, OF which
the sacred triad are Heaven. Earth
and Man. Their days of religious
meeting r three in each month, three
is the number of prescribed prostra
tons before the idol; and the charac
tiers on their mystical seats are II
groups of three. and of them in tn
form.of a triangle. 1.-THE third time II
