and simplest methods of reading char

London Answers. 1t has always been
a popular way of telling fortunes. and
is now on the high road to supplant-
ing palmistry and many other sciences
for peeping into the future.
The best of "figureology" is that any
one knowing even only a little of the
system upon which it is based is en-
abled to prophesy events and better the
future without the cost of consulting
an adept. Whenever you need advice
you can appeal to your knowledge of
figures, and by, calculations YOU are
soon able to decide upon the best plan
of action.
First of all, it is necessary for you
to understand the meaning of the diff
ferent numbers. for instance. the figure
is a good symbol. indicating will
power and determination. while shows
unusual personality and IS not partic-
ularly good.
Then 8 is the number that governs
the head, religion, philosophy and
science and is exceptionally fortunate.
Figure governs and gives money; 5
is a sign of restlcssness, activity, love
oftravel and a liking for anything g
mysterious, while is the figure of a
thinker. giving a desire for knowl-
edge and a great deal of inquisitive-
ness.
The number means sacrifice, wis
dom and completeness; it is indicative
of religious tendencies, also of fame
and honor. Then means a life full of
change and variety; it is not a good
number, because 1t is liable to bring
strife and opposition.
The figure is neither good nor bad !;
1t is somewhat doubtful, and although
often the sign of prosperity it is a
bad number for a house, bringing ill
fortune to the inmates. At the same
time, however. both are and literature
come under the influence of figure g.
Speaking of house numbers, it was
noticed once that a great many people
failed in business in a house bearing
the number 32S. The explanation of the
i'll fortune brought by the number is
that 32s equals plus plus s, which,
added together. equals 13. That number
like 3, is extremely bad for a house
Any numbers that make 13 when added
together should be Stunned on this ac-
count; So is one of these, 40 another
and 76 another; although the good for

figure Z does much in this instance to
mitigate the evil influences of 49,
A short while ago a prominent states
man mentioned the fact that 13 has
been the lucky number throughout the
whole of his life, and he enumerated a
score or so of events obviously ruled
by this number. But this is not so re-
markable as it seems, for, although 13
is an extremely bad house number, 1t
is not nearly unfortunate in of M
matters as is generally supposed.
In fact, 1t was at one time regarded
as most prosperous figure, and in
marriage it is still said to promise har-
mony and happiness. Among the an
clients the 18th day of a month was in
variably chosen for wedding
Fortune and character telling by the
date of ones birthday is very easy, and
| it is also possible for any one to take
account of the numbers that have in

the furutre to certain extent
| For instance, take the case of Louis
NV of France, who was born on Sep
tember IA. and became King in 1643
added together these figures make 14)
Again, he became of age at IA, and he
began his personal government at the
death of Mazarin In 1861 G-6-6-1
equals l4. He died at the age OF II
q plus equals 14), after reigning ~
years, and the date of his death was
1915 (again making 14). His father,
! Louis XII( died on May IA. 1643 G-6-4 3
equals 14), and his grandfather, Henry
", also died on May IA
This is only very ordinary case. You
will probably find that some number has
influenced your life either for evil or
good in a very similar manner; and by
either avoiding this number in the future,
or by making use of it as much as possi-
BILE. you can better the conditions of your
life.
If you cannot trust sufficiently in your
lucky number when wishing to chose a
dag for some particular event to take
place, there is another way in which the
success of your enterprise can be helped,
if not altogether assured.
Lucky days in month may be ascer-
tanned by noting the day of the full moon
Uhis can be found in any almanac) and
counting the number of days from that
day until the end of the month. then null
tiplying the number of days from full
moon until the end. The result will be
your answer.
For example. take the month of jan
uary. 1914. Full moon will fall on the
18th day. There are 81 days In January
and from the 18th until the 31st there
are just 10 days. Multiply the number of
days contained in the entire month. viz
81, by the number of days from the full
moon to the end of the month, viz. 49,
You will find that 81 multiplied by 19
equals $50: so that the lucky days in
January. 1914, are 5, and 8.
If the result had been 5SS, and S
would. of course. have been the lucky
days, becoming exceptionally strong
by repetition
In order to find the unlucky days. the
number Pf days in the entire month must
