iS. After all the pack is dealt out, the player who obtains the last trick sweeps all the cards then remaining unmatched on the table. DIVISION LOO Is a good round game, at which any number may take part, though from fire to eight make a pleasant party. The game is played with a full pack of fifty-two cards, which rank as at Whist One card is dealt to each player, and the player receiving the lowest card is entitled to the deal. At the commencement of the game the dealer puts three chips, or co...unters, in the pool, the value of which has previously been agreed upon. It is necessary to make the pool a number that can be exactly divided by three, say 3, 6, or 9 chips. After the cards are shuffled and cut, the dealer proceeds to deal three cards (one at a time) to each player, b^;inning at the eldest hand, and gmng round to the left ; he also deals an extra hand, called Dumby, or Miss, in the centre of the table, and turns up the next card for trumps. In the first hand, and whenever the pool consists only of the three chips deposited by the dealer, it is called a " Bold Stand,** or Force, and each player is compelled to play his hand except the eldest hand, who, if be prefers it, is entitled to the Dumby, and may exchange it for his own.
