Is SEVEN MYSTIC NUMBER
Here Are Some Facts Which Might
Support tho Theory That 1t
Has Some Power.

The Germans say that "All good
things are three; but seven is also q
remarkable, one might almost say a
mystical, number.
The little girl in Wordsworth's we'll
known poem said: 1--WE are SEVEN"
The days of the week are seven. The
colors of the rainbow are seven. The
notes of the musical scale are seven
(the eighth one being the same as the
first). There were said to be seven
sages of Greece, and seven kings of
Rome, and the city Of Rome was built
on seven hills. London city has seven
hills also; Cornhill, Snow hill. Lud-
gate hill, Fish Street hill, Bread Street
hill, Holborn hill and Tower hill.
The world was made in seven days.
There were seven famous cities Of an
tiquity: Rome, Antioch, Nineveh, Baby
Ion, Athens, Tyre and Carthage.
There are seven wonders of the
world, that is of the ancient world, and
these were: The Colossus of Rhodes
Ca huge statue striding across the en-
trance to the harbor of Rhodes), the
Pyramids, the Ephesian temple of Dir
ana, the mausoleum Cor tomb of King
Mausolus, the remains Of which are
now in the British museum), the hang
ing gardens of Babylon, the Statute of
Jupiter and the Pharos.
There are also seven wonders of his.
tory. These are: The Colosseum, the
Catacombs, the Great Wall of China,
Stonehenge, the Leaning Tower of Pi-
sa, the Porcelain Tower of Nankin and
the Mosque of st. Sophia at CONSTANT
nople.
Here are the seven new wonders of
the world: Wireless, the telephone, the
areoplane, radium, antiseptics and an
titoXins, spectrum analysis, X-rays.
There are many passages in the BIZ
BILE in which the number seven is men,
toned, and it is on this account and
the facts mentioned above that sever
is considered a sacred number.
