Old-Tiinp Games.

1t is curious &c note how some o,
games of the early age have been
handed down TO the present time.
The game, for instance, known to
most of MS rs "Odd and Even" was
also favorite with the Young
Egyptian, and many of the little
counters that he used are still pre-
served in the British Museum. There
is also the game of draughts, which
was played on a chcckered board in
the earliest times. The poor children
were content with draughtsmen and
boxes made of rough pieces of clay,
but the richer ones usually had bean
TRULY carved iron-headed draughts-
men and boxes.
Tho young Greeks, too, were well
provided with toys and games for their
amusement. The toys were chiefly
dolls made of baked clay, the arms
and legs being joined with string,
and therefore movable. They had
iavorite game called "chytrinda,
which has been preserved through
many ages, and is now played by boys
OF to-day under the well-known name
the game ~ called "quartre coins" or
four corners Both in the old game
and the modern version five players
are required, one occupying each of
the four corners, while the fifth player
stands in the middle. In ancient
Greeso he wore ,n cHrthcn pipkin on
his head and was called pot" in
frnLco ut the present day he is the
'NIgaud," or siinplrton, and by us ne
is called "Puss." To guess the num-
Der of fingers another held up was also
"A tavoritc amusement, and this, too, ia
frequently played At the present time.
So you see how carefully the character
OF the amusements and the playthings
of the very early ages have been main
tanned in the toys and games in use to-
day. Chronicle.

1t is often remarked that an unao
customed traveller can get on pretty
well If he will keep his eyes and ears
open. A native Of Ireland landed mt
Greenock and wanted to take the train
for Glasgow. Never having been in n
railway station before, he did not
know how to get bis ticket, but he
saw lady going in and determine to
follow her lead. The lady went to
the ticket box and, putting down her
money, said:
"Maryhill, single"
Her ticket was duly handed to her
and she walked away. Pat promptly
plankcd down his money and shouted: (:

Electricity From Ocean Currents.

AT various points on the Bosporus
the current from the Black Sea To the
Mediterranean has prodigious force,
and it is now proposed to harness
some of this waste power for the light
ing of the whole city of Constantine
pie and a considerable length OF the
adjacent coast by electricity. The
way in which the inventor intends to
turn the ocean currents to account is
to erect three very powerful dynamo
machines upon the three points of the
Bosporus where the current has the
greatest force. .--Electricsl Review.
