Croquet h as become so popular in this country that the lovers of the game will, appreciate the following - from a late English. journal: - "Croquet has gained the protection of the lady who has daughters, and 'there fore it has overrun this country. The knock of the mallet; is heard everywhere and gentlemen's -gentlemen (we don't mean. footmen) write to papers that their welcothe in country - houses is spoiled .by croquet We' hear how the hostess has croqutt mania, and how the visitor gets his shins barked againat croquet 'bridges, ';and has his dinner burned and his new story Snubbed all on account of croquet. Croquetis creep ing into novels; and has alreadY got pictures. Artists, by the way, are won derfully quick at seizing a good , chance for drawing neat boots and pyetty feet. Croquet has been a boon to them. The looped petticoat and the Attitades place a great deal .+ at their ,disposal. Then croquet;,helps out a story. You ban bring the hero and heroine together in a croquet field, instead-'of restoring to' the old . conservatory business, Croquet is± even better, thari a Picnic for a situation.'
