SHUTTLE BOARD.
An Old Game Brought Forward for
Home Amusement During the
Melancholy Days.
BY Eleanor LEXINGTON.


There is lively revival of an old
game-shuffle board.
It threatens to be as popular as
bowling; it ought to be more so, for
the expense is not so great A room of
moderate size only is required in which
to play it. and it is not so noisy as
bowling.
The Shuttle boards are from q to IS
or 10 feet long. this being the length
of the bed or beard proper, the table
being about a foot longer The width
of the board is from 20 to "a inches,
and the table from 80 to 81 inches. The
tables are Of oak or white wood, with
brass corners and brass plates over the
joints. The bed is jointed in the center
for convenience.
The game is played by four persons.
two on side. each player having two
pieces" The pieces or weights are
eight in number divided into two sets
Of four each, having the letters A cast
in one set and B in the other. They
are round. fiat on the under side, and
weigh about one pound each
The player stands at enc end Of the
board and endeavors TO slide his weight
along the board 50 it will stop at the
line, which is q black strip crossing the
beard five inches from the end. To ia
cilState the sliding of the weight fine
sand is stfted over the board This is
renewed from time to time by scooping
it cut Of the cutters OF the board. scat
tering it over the bed. and smoothing it
off with q short stick The obieC. of the
game is 10 score q points. These are
made as follows;
Each weight which lies over or in
side of the line at the end of a round
is said to be in" and scores two points
for its player. Each weight projecting
over the end of the board is q ship,
and counts three points. If at the end
of round no piece OF weight is in,
that weight which lies nearest to the
line counts one point The weights
score only as they remain at the end of
each round. The players alternate
all the pieces being played from one
lend first then returned from the other
| There is always at each end of the
board one player of each side to note
his partners and opponents play and
the party or side that first scores a
game wins.
There are several variations of the
game. as in bowling. In some cases
pins are used on the board. and it
would seem that very attractive
game, using the same boards, could be
made by spotting the boards and pro
viding a box 20 catch 10 flying pins.
