A player should not play a card with such emphasis as to draw at tention to same. Theie are many conventions and inai,y localisms that creep Into Uie Kami', but the author finds the ex perts use but few und therefore none are lvuu. Ql'KSTIO.NS AND ANSWllltS Q. What Is mount by "In"? A. "In," In circulation. Tho cards that hiiye kii.l heeu pluyo:I. tj. . What card Is called the number on back of tray or board I j knave?

When uu even number of tables are In play and when half the number of moves huvo been made, .then the players sit siii until two rounds have been played I the trays having been moved after each round). Then the east and west move to the next table and finish the play of tho trays. ' The game consists ot regular Auction brldgo players at multiple of number of tubles. For Instance, 24 tables would start with one tray for each tjciilo, tho number of which tray should correspond to the num ber of the table. Or say nine tables would play 27 deals or trays, having three, dealB or trays (called a frame) on each tahlo. Tho 'Ialn' tray Ib a squdre de vice with four .pockets in which the four hands are kept, enabling the several north players to tine the samu hands and tho south players tho same und so in. The players do not throw their curds In the center of the tahlo us In most curd games, but, us In dup licate whist, each player places his curd, as ho plays It, on the table In I runt of him, and turns Its face downward us soon as the winner of the trick turns his curd, nnd the cards of that trick 'must not be seen iigulii (thu trie 1c Is then said to huvo been turned uuitteill. As each succeeding curd is turn ed, It should bo placed so as lo overlap thu card previously played, thus retaining the cards in lexact order In which they were played. The winners of tho trick pluco their cards, as they turn thorn down, per pendicularly to the edge of the table nearest thcni; the losers, on the contrary, place their cards horl zontnllly. When the deal (thirteen tricks) has been played, tho four hands should each he separately shull'led, and each player's cards slipped Into the pocket, of the Iray directly In front of hhu (ihe id-row always point north), thus carefully retain ing the position in which they were I;. -Id by the players.
