The Plelades were. sup- posed. to -have originally consisted of 7 and were called. the 7 sisters. There were seven wise men of Greece, Seven Wonders of the World; and the Seven Sleepers.- And so it ‘went, this number seeming to attract especizl attention. And in some ways the number 7 does appear to have some. pecullarities. When it is divided into one, in the at tempt to express one-seventh in the form of a decimal, We get the follow- ing -constantly recurring -set - of - fig-t ures: 142857 Now multiply the numbers which they express successively by the whole numbers running from 1 to 5. We get 14 285 14285 S 5 42 i Notice first of all that every one of these six nujmbars is expressed by the very same sét of figures. Second, the order of the figures is never changed. This can more’ readily be\ observed, perhaps. by arranging. the figures, 1 4 2 85 7 in a_circle, . when any one of the numbers can be read by going around the circle. Third, add the columns, six in all, of the set of numbers. You will get 2% for each column. Pretty curious, isn't 4t? Aunt Abby: How dia you enjoy go- ing to all the fairs?

Dear Social Cornerites: While at- tending a mother's meeting recently one question put to the mothers was “Of all the virtues that you endeavor to impress upon the‘soul of your child which in your opirion -returns the sreatest amount of good?” Of course. this was a very broad question and one that no mother could answer until she should:take - some time for consideration. In ‘my opinion where a - child has learned self-control they have learned one of the world's greatest lessons, and those lessons should in my opinion be- gin _at infanc: How many - times we will hear a mother say: “When they grow older } wiil teach them to do different.” What a fatal mistake we mothers are malk- ing, for a habit once formed is most Qifffeult to change. How many times we sge children fiy_into a rage, scream at the fop: of eir_voices, dance and spin _around, simply because they have been denied something their parents did not think would be for their good. Their en- ergy. is then “wasted, vitality lowered and it is some time before a child: is in a normal condition again. 1f_the child is not taught to control himself, this same condition of affairs goes on vear after vear, until man- hood is reached and then what takes place? -He is unfit for any soclety, he cannot discuss an important ques- tion without etting excited, he is soon ghunned by hisfellowmenwho consid- er him too arbitray fo waste any time with.
