an adjunct to the rural church picnic

answered every purpose. Any one can
play it without undue exercise Of mind
Or body. It is to tennis what authors"
is to whist or draw poker. 1t is Of
the same average consistency as church

All this is true Of the old fashioned
croquet. The new game, which
has been developed by the
ever faithful croquet cranks, is quite an
other matter. Church picnic croquet
Is played on 4 lawn of any convenient
size, with long -handled mallets and big
balls, striped in brilliant colors. The
hoops" are so big than almost any
degree of skill sufhces to drive the ball
through them. But observe the chang
es in the new championship game.
Croquet is now played on a court ex-
actly 36X72 feet. The surface is no
longer of sod, but Of hardened earth,
made perfectly smooth by a special
process Of sitting and rolling and then
sprinkled with light course Of clean
sand. The corners Of the ground are
cut off as shown III the accompanying
diagram. A border incloses the court.
1t is of maple or other hard wood,
about 4xG inches, laid flat to serve as
cushions, whence carroms can be made
as in billiards. To add further compli-
cations, a sort Of "balk line" is laid
down at distance of thirty inches
from the border, and the ground be-
tween this line and the wooden border
rises by a gradual slope outward to
the height Of two inches, so that a
ball driven beyond the line will roll

judgment must be instantaneous, and
muscular action rapid and fatiguing.
Croquet conduces to prolonged thought
and requires only moderate muscular
exerion. One Of the boasts Of it's adj
mirers is that the game necessitates no
change Of costume, either before or
after playing. A preacher, for exam
pie, might lay down his pen, play a
game of croquet, and then resume his
sermon without an unpleasant sense Of
interruptions; whereas, after tennis, he
would need have recourse to the bath.
The "chief points Of excellence in
croquet are thus enumerated in the Off
cial book:
First-Accuracy in croqueting or max
ing one ball hit another from the blow
of the mallet. Here the accurate eye
and the trained hand are needed, for
at a distance Of 80 feet ball 3 / 4 inch
es in diameter subtends to ve.y small
angle, and very small divergence Of
the line Of direction Of the impinging
mallet will cause the struck ball to go
wide of its desired course.
Second-Ability to take position in

them successfully, for the arches being

Third Wiring" or stalking" an adj

sometimes from distance Of fifteen
or twenty feet; and fourth and greatest
of all is good generalship, for without
this all excellence attained in the three
preceding points will be manifested in
vain in a hardfought game. Closely
associated with the first is the ability
to drive" or 'block' the ball at a
certain angle to reach a position de-
sired. This will be attempted only
when the balls are near together, for
at a long range roquet only is at
tempted. It is possible also that Jump
shooting ought to be added to these,
for this at first thought seemingly i'm

feature with some players, and not in
frequently they are relieved from an
otherwise inextricable position by a

One Establishment in Paris Has
Kept It Up for More Than Fifty
Years.
Ihe Partisan house painter and decor
ator, Leclairc, was byrn the son Of a
country shoemaker. After working in
the fields and as J, 1nason's boy, lie
arrived in Paris, penniless, at the age
of IL. He apprenticed himself to a
Ecuse painter. and in ten years became
a master. AS soon as he had secured
his own footing in the trade, he turned
his mind to improving the condition
Of those who worked in it. His first
step was to seek a substitute for white
lead, which he found injurious to their
health. This he succeeded in doing.
MI Oh impressed with the uncertainty
Of their position, he went on to find
system by which every man in his
employment received as a bonus a part
OF the regular profits of his trade.
For the regular and permanent work
men he also established mutual aid
society, supported at first by the volun-
tary contributions Of members, but sub
sequently by the receipt Of another
considerable portion of the profit His
workmen thus not only became part
ners in the business, but also accrued
a large addition to their wages, as " ell
as an ample provision for old age, sick
ness or accident. Between 1912 and
1872, when he died a rich man, leaving
/ S2400OO, Leclaire had paid the sum Of
$4,000 in bonuses to his workmen
and in contribution to their mutual
aid or provident society. His business
was then carried on by two managing
partners, chosen by the workmen out
Of their own number. 1t had a capital
of $64, 900, belonging half to the man
aging partners and half to the mutual
aid society.
The mutual aid society owned cap
ital of 1910, 900, including it's shares in
the capital Of the business. 1t had los
members, besides 81 who were living
upon their retired allowances. To the
regular workmen it secured large year
~ bonuses upon his aggregate wages;
all the advantages of an ordinary bene-
fit club; life pension of '$240 per an
mum, payable on his completing his
fftieth year of life and his twentieth
year of work for the concern; one-haf
Of his pension continued to his widow
for life; a sum Of 5000 payable to his
family at his death; and the certainty
