¬ tery and was originated by tho writer The little blocks ou each side repre ¬ sent a fort and the rings used are are bombshells When a player suc ¬ ceeds In throwing ono over the peg of his opponent the bomb is supposed to have dropped into the enemys fort Any smart boy who can use a saw plane and pocket knife can mako the game in a few hours Tho material excepting the rings you will probably find somewhere about the premises but if not a few pennies will purchase themProcure a nice smooth piece of board soft or hard wood onehalf inch thick and eight Inches square as shown In the illustration Next mako four little wedgeshaped pieces 1 Yr Inches long by two Inches wide at top and tapering to onefourth of an inch at tine bottom end The pieces should bo onehalf loch thick and taper from the wide end to almost nothing at the small end This Is to give them a slanting surface when glued In their proper places on tho board Now draw GAME OF BATTEUY a line across the center of the board each way and glue or tack ono of these blocks on the line on each side of the board and close to the edge as shown In the illustration Next measure oft from the Inside edge of the blocks to ¬ ward the center and on the line ono Inch from each block drive a oneInch brad or shlnglo nail so that it shall slick up above tho surface of tho board exactly fiveeighths of an inch Next buy at tho hardware store five little brass curtain rings onehalf inch in diameter which should not cost over a penny or two anti tho game is fin ¬ ished Tho board tray be painted or stained some pretty color if desired Two or four may play the game It four are to play you may play partners Having seated yourselves about tho board which should be placed upon a small center table the first player begins by taking the five rings which count five each and ono at a time places them on tho sloping block called a battery and placing tho In ¬ dex finger on tho Insldo of the ring gives It a quick snap up tho incline so that it will encircle tho peg of his op ¬ ponent directly opposite Should ho fall to land it ho allows it to remain on the board until ho has thrown all tho rings If he succeeded In getting any of tho rings over the peg the ono chosen to keep tally puts down the scoro to tho player Tho next player In turn then takes tho rings and proceeds as with the first and so on until oil have played

lizard of Now Zealand- It is a great fat sleepy thing from a foot upward In length with a meas- urement around of about 12 Inches It is kept tamed about rocks Wild specimens are growing rare though one island oft the coast yet swarms with them These harmless things come out as a rule only for food But some one in Christchurch at Auckland has dis- covered a way pf bringing them out at any time This Is by singing to themThey have their preferences in mu ¬ sic too They evince much more sat ¬ isfaction at a rollicking chorus than at a solo Ono day a song sung by a girl brought some out but only their heads wore visible their sleepy eyes openi liuj every few minutes Then Queen1aqd there was no doubt about the effect on tho tuataras They wriggled about on the rocks almost dancing in their excitement and joy until the repertoire of the singers was exhausted when the lizards sneaked back again to their home among the rocks Now Zealand is the only place in the world where these great lizards are found and they are said by blolo gists to be out of their place in this stage of the worlds history They belong to tho coal period and like the moat ought by natural laws to have become
