ouoits Really Ancient Game.

The quot is f1attish ring of iron.
used in playing. 1t is generally from
eight and a half to nine and half
inches in external diameter, and be-
tween one and two inches in breadth,
convex on the upper side and slightly
concave on the under side, so that the
outer edge curves downward, and is
sharp enough to cut into soft ground.
The game played with such rings re-
quires two pins, called hobs, driver
part of their length into the ground
some distance apart; and the players,
who are divided into two sides, stand
beside one hob, and in regular sue
cession throw their quoits, of which
each player has two. as near the other
hob as they can. The side which has
the quot nearest the hob counts a
point toward the game, or, if the quot
is thrown so as to surround the hob,
it counts two. The game slightly re-
sembles the ancient exercise Of throw
ing the discus, which has, however,
been often translated by this English
word.
