XXVII COMMERCE MATERIALS REQUIRED: Two 'packs of playing- cards ; fifty beans for each player ; two prizes. To play this game successfully it is quite necessary to have among your guests a clever amateur auctioneer or some gentleman who does not object to talking a good deal, and is quick and amusing. If you can find such a person the success of the game is assured. The players should be seated around a table, each with his capital of fifty beans be- Commerce 59 fore him. Two packs of playing-c...ards are then brought in and the auctioneer holds a sale of one pack, selling one card at a time to the highest bidder, who pays for it in beans. When the pack has all been sold, the players arrange their cards and beans on the table before them and prepare for business. Announcement is made by the auctioneer that he will begin by holding the second pack of cards in his hand and will turn up one at a time, as he does so calling the name of the card, and the player who has the duplicate of it among his cards must surrender it to the auctioneer.
