INSIDE AND OUT.—The player is required to kiss a book inside and outside without opening it. He accomplishes this seemingly impossible task by taking the book out of the room, kissing it there, coming back, and kissing it again inside the room.
JINGLES.—The player is given two pairs of rhymes and required to write a verse of four lines ending with the prescribed rhymes. This same forfeit may be imposed on several different players at once, an added interest arising from comparison of the finished verses.
KNIGHT OF THE RUEFUL COUNTENANCE.—This requires two players, one who is assigned to be the knight and the other to be the squire.
The squire takes the knight by the arm and leads him before each lady present. The squire kisses the hand of each lady in turn, and after each kiss carefully wipes the knight's mouth with a handkerchief. The knight must display his grief at the loss of so many opportunities by preserving throughout an unsmiling countenance.
LITTLE DOG TRAY.—The player is required to crawl under the table on all fours and bark like a dog.
LITTLE GERMAN BAND, THE.—Three or four players are told to imitate a little German band, each being required to represent a certain instrument, and all to join in rendering some popular air, which should be assigned.
LITTLE SUNSHINE.—The player is required to walk around the room and bestow a smile on each person in turn.
LUNCH COUNTER.—An apple is suspended at head height on the end of a string from a chandelier or portière pole. The delinquent player is required to walk up to the apple and take a bite from it without help from the hands. For obvious reasons, only one person should be allowed to bite at an apple.
MOODS.—The player is required to laugh in one corner of the room, to sing in the second corner, to cry in the third, and to whistle or dance in the fourth.
NEGATIVE SIDE, THE.—The player is required to answer "No" to a question put to him by each member of the company in turn. This may be made very funny if he be required, for instance, thereby to express dislike for his favorite occupations or friends.
