    Once a good holy girl who attended Mass very often wished to know how many Masses she would hear during life. This was a hard thing to count so she decided to put a stone, for every Mass she heard, into a box and to her surprise she found only one stone in the box which was a sign that she had heard only one good Mass during her life.
