If you take a realizing sense of your deficiency, you will not venture on matliematical calculations. , Cultivate. [106.] XLVI.—LOCALITY. (7.) Very Large.—You have an insatiable love of traveling, and desire to see the world, and a remarkably retentive memory of the localities you visit; have an intuitive idea of both the relative and absolute position of places, and never lose your way either in the Ibrests or in the streets of a strange city.
