ANTIQUITY OF DICE.
Have Been Used in Religious Ceremonies
From Time tnmenlorial.

Have Been Used in Religious Ceremonies
From Time Immenlorinl.
The origin of the dice is buried in
romance and mystery. They have
been used in religious ceremonies from
time immemorial. Dice have been
used in all earlier forms of worship to
find out the future by divine aid and
guidance.
The variety OF the worlds dice is
surprising. but practically may be di-
Nided into two kinds. One kind is
cubical, represented by our ordinary
dice. With TWO exceptions, Korean
and Estruscan. the spots are arranged
SO that the six and one. FIVE and two.
ana three and four are opposite. maxi
ing The sum of opposite sides invari-
ably seven.
This is the dice not only Of modern
Europe and America. but OF classical
Greece and Rome. of Syria. Persia. In
dia, China, Japan. Burmah and Siam.
The other principal kind Of dice is the
long square prism. also marked with
dice eyes found scattered among the
prehistoric remains in Europe and ex-
listing day in India and adjacent
countries.
With these dice must also be classed
the top of spinning dice. with four or
six sides. which are twirled with the
fingers. The oldest is from Naucratis
a Greek colony 600 b. c. Only two
specimens Of dice have been discovered
AT Babylon. No name for dice has vel
been found in the cuneiform writings
