 game is little known, but materials for playing at it are sold by 

 Messrs. Cato &. Son, wire-workers, Holborn Hill, London, who sent 

 out with them the following printed rules : — 



" This game, which differs from all others, should be played on a 

 lawn about twelve yards square ; the socket witli the ring being fixed 

 in the centre by a block of wood fixed into the earth. It may bo 

 played by two or four persons, either separately, or as partners, each 

 player having a ball with a cue pointed to correspond. Care must 

 be taken to fix the ring at the end of the cue close to the ball before 

 striking."
