that her son was at that particular time in some
special danger She tried, without success to
shake off the notion. and proceeded 70 spend the
night in prayer for him, and noticed, IN her anX-
iety and faith in the Divine aid, she had uttered
his name out loud no less than three times.
ut was subsequently found out that on that
very night there had been no battle. nor even an
exchange of shots between the outposts. So, for
a while, the impression faded from her mind.
But when the over and her son came
home he told his mother-who or her part, had
rot mentioned the incident that during a certain
night, when he sleeping out, without tent or
cover, he .eemed TO hear her call out his name
most distinctly. Three times this occurred, and
the third time he felt jIstnctivey impeed to
move his position. The next moment he heard
the unmistakabe 'whirr' OF shell sweeping
through the air, which all at once fell and burst
in the very place in which he had 50 recently been

PREDICTIONS RELATIVE TO THE DRAWING
OF NUMBERS.
Belgium is now very much TO the fore in public
estimation 1t may be Of interest to mention here
series of remarkable predictions which took
place some years ago relative TO the numbers
drawn in the CONSUMPTION Of the Belgian army.
Professor g. Hulin, of the University OF Client,
sent the facts to Professor Sidgwick then presi-

cases of right numbers being predicted during
the years 1864 are given on good authority,
the numbers in the four cases being, respectively
80, ll2 PIG III and lI5. The first was an
exceedingly striking one, the 'externalized' vision
of the number 30 appearing to the subject and
producing strong impression III MS hliiu' COl'-
