The origin of belief in horseshoe

never has been determined with Ger.

universal. Ever since horses began
to wear shoes. those crescents Of iron
have been accounted lucky emblems OF

The whole island was once sub

only once in eleven years, and then
only for short time. Many attempts
had been made to break the spell and
induce the country to remain perma-
nentiy above the waters, but all were
in vain until one day daring adven-

even yet an extinct one. No witch. it
used to be said, could enter a building
over the door Of which a horseshoe
or, better still. three horseshoes-ha

The origin OF This particular belief is
referablc to the old legend of st. Dun
