THE WAYS OF THE WORLD.
I do not want to pose as a but the following may possibly interest such as do no t take the ad vice ot the Salvation Army Captain. It would appear that a marble slab has been discovered in Oberemmel, on which is inscribed the following lines : “ Quondo Marcus Pasalia clabit Et Antonin; Poatocostum celobrabis Et Joanous Orletum adorabxfc Totuo mutidua v.°j3 damabil I” That is: “ When Easter falls on St; Marie ( April 25th), and Whit Sunday on St. Anthony (June 13th, and 1 Corpus Domini ’on St. John (J une 24th), then ail the world will call for help.” Now, in ISSG, all those three holy days occur precisely on those days. Then again, the prophet-doctor, Michael Nostradamus, who was born on the I.4th of December, 1503, and died at Salon, on the 24th June, 1566, sa.ys : Quaud Georges Dion crucifers. Qua Marc la raesuatra, Et qua St. Jean lo porters. La fin duo mondo arrivera.” That is : When Good Friday falls on Saint George (April 23rd) Easter on St. Mark’s (April 25th.) and ‘ Corpus / Domini ’on St John (Juno 24th) then all the world will end.’’ Here again all the three days occur together in 1886.
