According to the general story there is a whole series of prophecies carved on some part of one of the Pyramids, foreteliing some colossal misfortune to the world for May 28, 1928. - The story is as vague as such stories usually are, But all versions agreed that this particular prophecy was the last of the sories, all the rest of which had been fulfilled with startling accuracy. Now we get more precise details in letter from the Rev. Walter Wynn, of the United Free Church, Chesham, Bucking-hampshire, sent to the "Newspaper World."

When the expected event failed 10 come off, the letter-writer only wrote again to say that the mistake must lie in him, not in the Scriptures, and he must set to work on his studies once more. It may be an assistance to a certain class of mind to believe that a supernatural agency has at some period in the world's history foretold every event in the rest of the world's history down to the end of time, for the benefit of those who have the skill to. interpret But on the majority of human beings one believes the effect of such a belief would be the reverse of saluter
