GOING UP -- the Steps of thrift There are numerous wells throughout the British Isles where the passerby has but to breathe a wish or drop a pin or other offering Into the water to obtain what he wants. From what was learned of St Helens well near Sefton In Lancashire, young ladies still continue to throw pins Into it to find out whether their sweethearts are faithful to them, the dates of their marriage and other details on which their future happiness hangs, and this they learn from the turning of the pin to the north or to the south, possibly to some other point of the compass. or the well At Tober Kiina-Grein- e of the Sun church, found a century ago In County Cork, when a marsh was drained, a spring was disclosed where, according to legend, a nymph of the well once lived. This woman had a gift for prophecy, and there was said to be a little wooden Image of her there which would communicate with the people. Naturally, as this report spread, the people of the countryside flocked to the well. Three draughts of the water were taken by the pilgrims, three times repeated, and three times they made the rounds on their knees, thus making a circuit of the well three times. After each round the pilgrim laid a white stone, about the size of a pigeons egg, on the ancient altar In the circle which was called the Well of the Sun. The revelry, dancing and drinking that followed led to the discontinuance of the observances, which were an example of sun worship surviving Into modern times. The nymph of the well manifested herself in the form of a trout, but left when the well was desecrated.
