PURPOSE: To easily grasp the number of times of praying without necessity to prepare a lot of bamboo sticks or small pieces by providing a lot of snap beads passed through the required number of rods almost horizontally framed between pillars so that the beads can be freely axially slid.
CONSTITUTION: Generally in praying a hundred times, after praying in front of a shrine, a prayer reciprocatively walks with a hundred times stone installed at a prescribed place inside the yard as a return point and prays in front of the shrine again repeatedly. Every time of praying, first of all, snap beads 18 on the upper stage are successively shifted one by one from the upper stage to the right side, for example, these snap beads 18 are successively shifted from the upper stage to the right side, for example, one by one and when all these 50 snap beads 18 are completely shifted, snap beads 19 on the lower stage are shifted one by one to the right every time of praying. Since the snap beads 18 and 19 are provided on two of upper and lower stages fifty by fifty and painted in different colors ten by ten, the number of times of praying and the remaining number of times of praying can be instantaneously visually judged.
