a New Lawn Game Of rema.

A new lawn game has been invented
in London. and as it can be played
with equal enjoyment by both boys
and girls, il possesses many claims to
popular favor.
II can be followed in any season
and by as few as four or as many as
fourteen persons at once. says Litera.
trre. skin. agility and s good eye
are far more requisite than mere physt.
strength. and the proper manipulation
of the wand by means OF quick wrist
turns develops and renders flexible the
muscles OF the arms and wrists.
A screen of wood or canvas, fixed
on a light frame. and having in the
center circular aperture is inches
in diameter. is erected Behind the
hole is fixed q bag net, and the main
object OF the players, who stand some
distance away. is to throw number
OF cotored balls. by means OF the wand.
into this bag.
The wand has at one end peculiar.
ly-Shaped crook for holding the ball,
but some little skill is necessary to re-
tain the ball in it for the purpose OF
making the throw.
The number OF pot balls" to be
scored by each side before 1t can COM
plete tn first stage OF the game cor
responds with the number OF players
on each side. When either side has
scored the number of pot balls
agreed upon. it enters upon the second
stage. and it at once obtains single
"zoned~ ball Whichever side then
first succeeds in scoring its "zoned
balr' wins the game.

and slowly it rises until il stands
perfectly erect; all this while you can
pass your wand above and round the
cross to prove that it is not suspended
in any way by wires or strings.
The trick is worked in this man
uer; The cross with the plug in il
is laid upon the feshy part OF the
base of the fingers. so that the needle
point is inserted into the flesh. The
hand is now held in the position indi-
Gated in the illustration. with the fin
gers slightly bent upward supporting
the cross. Now gradually straighten
your hand and as the flesh rightens
the cross viii assume an upright posi-.
ton; by an almost imperceptible
movement of the finger the cross can
be made to rise or fall at the per
formers inclination.
