MYSTIC NUMBERS.
Romance That Is Woven Around the
Seven, Three and Nine.

Romance That Is Woven Around the
Seven, Three and Nine.
There are seven days in the week be-
cause of the oriental tradition that the
world was created In seven days. The
Romans had no week, but reckoned by
months, counting forward and back
ward from the ides and nones, until the
fourth century, when they adopted the
Jewish Christian week.
Because of Its relation to the creation
the number seven has always been In
vested with an occult and mystic sig
nlfcance. There were seven wise men
in antiquity and seven wonders of the
world. The seventh son of a seventh
son, or seventh daughter of a seventh
daughter was supposed to possess pow
ers Of prophecy or divination. For
seven days seven priests with seven
trumpets invested Jericho, and on the
seventh day they encompassed 1t seven
times The ancients knew of seven
planets and seven metals. There were
seven heavens and seven hiersrchies of
angels.
Seven had a mystical significance
among peoples who had no tradition Of
seven day creation, and this was due
to its being indivisible by any number
but itself and to its being combina-

feet number, representing beginning,
middle and end and 4, the square num-

ed confirmation when the doctrine of
trinity in unity was promulgated by
the early Christians. For 3 Is itself at
once trinity and unity.
The number was endowed with
mysterious properties because 1t is the
product OF three times three-perfec-
ton multiplied by perfection. To see
nine magpies was remarkably lucky.
