HAZEL CrEEK, April 14, 1894.
_»I am more than pleased with it—
delighted. ‘The piace seems te-me to

dry, firm soil, good water (the very best),
fine chances for dreinage, and scenery

. The view of the Crags.also is fine. The gen}.
~“pral environment is of the best. It is an
oval-shaped amphitheater, three miles long
by one-fourth to three-fourths of a mile
wide, with receding walls two to three
thousand feet in height, with lines and
shades.ef beauty at every reach. I
doubt if a better place can be found in

for instance, known to most of us as
odd and even was also a favorite with
the young Egyptian, and many of the
little counters that he used are still
preserved in the British museum. There
is also the game of drafts, which was
played on a checkered board in the earliest times. The poor children were content with draftsmen and boxes made of
rough pieces of clay, but the richer ones
usually had beautifully carved iron
headed draftsmen and boxes.
The young Greeks, too, were well
provided with toys and games for their
amusement. The toys were chiefly dolls
made of baked clay, the arms and legs
being jointed with string, and therefore movable. They had a favorite game
called Chytriand, which has been preserved through many ages, and is now
played by boys of today under the well
known name of puss in the corner. In
France the game is called quatre coins,
or four corners. Both in the old game
and in the modern version five players
are required, one occupying each of the
corners, while the fifth player stands
in the middle. In ancient Greece he
wore an earthen pipkin on his head and
was called pot; in France at the present day he is the nigaud, or simpleton,
and by us is called puss. :
To guess the number of fingers ‘another held up was also a favorite amusement, and this, too, is frequently played at the present time. So you see how
carefully the character of the amusements and the playthings of the very
early ages has been maintained in the
toys and games in use today.
Downfall of Napoleon.
That famous statue of Napolecn which
looking seaward in defiance toward England was blown down in the late English chanziel storm. It stood 25 feet high
and was well known to the casual American tourist.—Boulogne’ Letter.
