Numerous are the queer beliefs
concerning the uumbem7. From
the very earliest ages the seven
great planets were known aud ruled

There are seven material heavens.
There are seven oolors in the spec-
trum nnd'eeveu notes iu the dia-
tonic octave and the "leading"
note of the fioalej is the seventh.
Be it noted that the seventh son
is not always gifted with benefi-

every Saturday evauing to assume
the likeness of m ass..
