THE PLAYGEOUND ; or, The Boy's Book of Games.

With many Illustrations. 
I have avoided, as far as possible, i*d formality ; and by tlirovving the 
work into the form of a narrative, following the history of a single boy through 
one year of school life, have been able to dispense with the dry and often 
obscure rules that generally form the substance of similar works."—
