"LO LO."

A new parlor croquet game, known as "Lo Lo," is being introduced by E. I. Horsman, New York. This is the latest and is believed to be the best thing in the way of a "Tiddledy Winks" game yet brought out.

The cut illustrates the cover of the box containing the game and shows the method of playing.

The implements of the game consist of a piece of green felt, 11 by 28 inches, with a border stamped in black. On this felt there is a regular croquet lay out of wire arches and stakes. Six colored bone disks and six "mallet disks" complete the outfit. The colored disks represent the balls and the "mallet disks" are used to snap them into positions or through the arches.
