Excerpt from Parlor Amusements The dramatic element exists, in a greater or less degree, in every mind; for the little child begins to imagine or personate some character at a very early age. The doll is invested with histrionic power, and plays many different roles as time goes on; and the love of acting lasts after old age has dulled many other enjoyments. No pleasanter manner of whiling away a long evening can be found than by a simple entertainment in which old and young unite. The chief objection to such performances has been the trouble which attends their preparation. This little book is intended to obviate this difficulty, as the scenes are so arranged that the most of them can be performed in any parlor with simple properties and costumes, and most of them without study or practice. Every one of them, however, has been tried before large audiences in hundreds of cities, and they are now simplified and arranged for performance by old and young. In the opening chapter, proof of the long experience of the manager is given; and the last ones are devoted to games of thought, in which new games, and old ones in a new dress, are presented in the hope that much benefit to the thinking powers may be gained, as well as amusement.

Excerpt from Parlor Games and Parties for Young and Old: Amusement Ideas for All the Family All the Year In response to the invitations, which the hostess should write with as much alliteration as possible, so as to inspire those to whom she writes, each guest is requested to send a sentence of about ten words, the prevailing initial of which is the same as his or her name, and which gives a hint of some characteristic of the writer, such as his business, hobby or personal peculiarity. These sentences, but not the names of the guests, are then written singly on cards and num bered to correspond with the names of the writers. After attaching little loops of baby-ribbon all will be ready for the evening. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from New Games for Parlor and Lawn: With a Few Old Friends in a New Dress ON examination of the New Games for Parlor and Lawn, the publishers requested that a few old favorites should be added.

Excerpt from The Book of Parlour Games: Comprising Explanations of the Most Approved Games for the Social Circle A manual of Parlour Games has long been a desideratum among the social and family circles of town and country. Those which are most generally in use have lived in the memories of successive generations, and have been handed down by tradition time out of mind. It appeared to the translator of this work, that the collection of games, which it contains would be highly acceptable to the ladies of our own country. Many of them are entirely new to us; while others are recognised as substantially the same as those which have long furnished amusement at our own firesides.
