at variance with the name he had been
using and the numbers under which he
lived.
She advised him to take pen name
representing numbers which would
form a concord with his own. and to
see-tO il that the Colors about him were
such as belonged TO him, and to move
so that the name of the street and
number of the house We're not discord-

past twelve months he has achieved
more recognition than in the whole
course Of his previous life.

that this great mind and memory is

has seen vivid images, which might be
called pictures, of the more important

In accord with this is the assertion
made by the author of this system that
there is a deep meaning in the alpha

symbol Of far-reaching significance
In speaking Of this she says there is

thing is relevant and significant. when

laws as distinct from material laws,
and that the alphabet of every Ian
Suage is not only prophetic, but inter

that the alphab bet of the English Ian
