WHIST RULES IN RHYME.
The Mod ern Game as Laid Down
by Mr.. Pole.

The Modern Game as Laid Down
by Mr.. Pole.
If you the modern game of whist would
know,
From this great principle its precepts flow
Treat your own hand as to your partners
joined,
And play not one alone but both combined.
Your first lead makes yourpartner under
stand
And hence there is necessity the strongest
That your first lead be from your suit that's
longest.
In this, with ace and king, lead king, then
With king and queen. king also has first
place;
With ace, queen, knave, lead ace and then
the queen;
With ace, four small ones, ace should first
be seen:
With queen. knave ten, you let the queen
precede;
In other cases you the lowest lead.
Ere you return your friends your own suit
play;
But trumps you must return without delay.
When you return your partners lead take
pains
To lead him back the best your hand con.
tains,
If you received not more than three at first,
If you had more you may return the worst.
But if you hold the master card you re bound
In most cases to play it second round.
Whence you want lead tbs seldom wrong
To lead up to the weak or through the strong
If second hand your lowest should be played,
Unless you mean trump signal" to be made;
Or if you've king and queen, or ace Or king.
Then one of these will be the proper thing.
Mind we'll the rules for trump-youll often
need them
When you hold five It's always right to lead
Them
Orif the lead won't come in time to you,
Then signal TO your partner so to do.
Watch also for your partner trump request,
To which, with less than four, play out your
best.
To lead through honors turned up is bad play,
Unless you want the trump suit cleared away.
When, second hand, doubtful trick you see,
Don't trump it if you hold more trumps than
three,
But, having three or less trump fearlessly.
When weak in trumps yourself don't force
your friend,
But always force the adverse strong trump
hand.
For sequences stern custom has decreed
The lowest you must play, il you don't lead
When you discard weak suits you ought to
choose,
For strong ones are too valuable to lose.

Dear Mr.. Johnson: l hope you did
you so abruptly on Saturday, especially
after your very kind conversation with
me. The reason of my anxiety and sad
ness was that the man | have been en-
gagged to for two years was coming home
from Australia, and his ship was much
overdue, owing to the gales. He never
let me know he had arrived, but went
straight to my home and followed me to
the city to find your Office, where l saw
him from the window, which was the
cause of my hurried exit. [ shall not

great kindness and sympathy, yours
