Tossing a Card at a Mark Accurately

Tossing Cards Accurately so That They will Fall into a Receptacle Set at a Distance

There is an interesting old game that can be played instead of solitaire. It consists in trying to toss the greatest number of cards into a small basket or an upturned stiff hat, set at a distance. If the cards are held as shown at A, and tossed as at B, they may be thrown with surprising accuracy.—Contributed by James M. Kane, Doylestown, Pa.
