4 " TIC general run OIL human
ity, the problem of passing
time was a mighty one for the idle
rich. If we read the histories or the
fiction of that time, we find that the
poor folks had to hustle so hard to
make living they had little time to
worry about the diversions which
the rich had such difficulty in find
ing.
Card playing was the most popu-
lar form of amusement for both
sexes. We read of desperate games
in which LANDED estates were the
stakes---noblemen beggared them
selves and their descendants at the
card table. Every popular resort,
every watering-place; all the baths
and spas were miniature Monte
Carlos.
The seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries saw the gambling fever at
it's height, and the latter part of the
eighteenth century saw the develop
ing of the various games of chance
by which lives, morals and fortunes
were lost.
We have long recognized the fact
every fashion Or custom will return,
and the medical fraternity has at
last been reused to the dangers of
the card-playing which has of late
taken so strong a hold on nearly
every class OF people.
AS a diversion, there is, probably,
nothing so delightful as ga game Of
cards"
To be a clever whist player
requires study, patience and finesse,
and no man nor woman was ever
handicapped by the possession Of
these three traits.
But it is the other sort of card
playing-thc feverish, tense playing
that induces men and women to
spend hours every day and days every
week at the card-table.
The baubles and trifles of few
years ago are no longer worth the
mettle of the ''bridge-tiend money
is the stake for which many play at
private homes Of refinement and ele-
gance.
Some gruesome tragedies have
been whispered Of, wherein women
have played heavily and lost; because
of the means by which they have
tried to recoup, many a domestic
wreck mas occurred.
Card-playing, like SO many other
vices, often begins in so simple
manner, the inroads are SO gradual
on the neral makeup Of the vic
tim as to blind them to the serious
ness or the strength Of it until it is
almost too late.
Every day, in every town, dozens
of men and boys are hailed before the
police court and fined for playing
crap at a penny a throw.
While we read of the disposition
of these cases, we may raise our
eyes and look out of the window, see
groups Of well-dressed, dainty, intel
ligent women Fastening to house to
play cards for a box Of silk stock
ings, or a cut glass dish or some
other trifie dear to the woman heart.
Do the police break up these lady
like games?
No indeed!
Why?
And what's the answer?
Gambling in any form must come
under the same general head If we
are to be honest. Card playing is as
stultifying to the mentality as horse
race gambling is to the morality Of
it's followers.
In this day and time, when women
have been blessed with more oppor-
tunities, privileges and advantages
than at any time since history began,
doesn't it seem a sorry return for so
