minutes between each move.

Great care should be taken in moving the men, as one false move may at
any time endanger the whole game.

With constant practice any one can soon become a very fair player, but
even after the game has been played only a few times it will be found
very interesting.

DOMINOES

There are several ways of playing Dominoes, but the following game is
the most simple:

The dominoes are placed on the table, face downward, and each player
takes up one, to decide who is to play first. The one who draws the
stone with the highest number of pips on it takes the lead. The
two stones are then put back among the rest; the dominoes are then
shuffled, face downward, and the players choose seven stones each,
placing them upright on the table, so that each can see his own
stones, without being able to overlook those of his opponent.

As there are twenty-eight stones in an ordinary set, there will still
be fourteen left from which to draw.

The player who has won the lead now places a stone, face upward, on
the table. Suppose it be double-six, the other player is bound to
put down a stone on which six appears, placing the six next to the
