THE NUMBER SEVEN IN HISTORY".
Has Had Deep Significance in Ancient
and Modern Times.
It was frequently used as a mystical
or symbolical number in the Bible, as
well as among the principal nations of
antiquity.
There were seven days in a week,
and the seventh was kept sacred.
There were seven deadly sjns
pride, covetousness, lust, anger, glut
tony, envy and sloth.
There were seven vlrturesfaith,
hope, charity, prudence, tdmperance,
chastity and fortitude.
There were seven champions of
ChristendomSt. George for England,
St, Andrew for Scotland, St. Patrick
for Ireland, St. David for Wales, St:
Denis for France, St. James for Spain,
St. Anthony for Italy.
There were seven wise men of
Greece.
There were seven ages of man.
Rome was built on seven hills.
There- were seven ancient wander
ers, and the seven sleepers were he
roes of a celebrated legend.
HE U6ED A TACK.
How Undertaker Made Sure the Wig
Would Stick.
As the story goes, an Irish under
taker was laying out the deceased hus
band of a weeping Hibernian widow.
The corpse wore a wig, and it was
very difficult to induce it to stay on
straight, as wigs ought always to do,
even if they don't. The bereaved
widow was called in to assist. "Go
an' git me a pot of glue, Mrs. McGov-
ern," said the undertaker, "so that I
may keep bis wig where it belongs."
Mrs. MocGovern set out after the
sticking material, and after a time she
returned. "Here is the glue for ye,"
she said with a sigh.
"Mrs. McOovern, you kin take back
the mucilage," said the undertaker
"the difficulty Is fixed. I used a tack."

not so much because he works harder
