DIRECTIONS
TIDDLEDY WINKS
1. Each player is provided with a set of bone disks consisting of one large one and four small ones of the corresponding color. The larger one is used to press the edges of the smaller ones and make them jump into the cup which is placed in the center of the table. The table should be covered with a thick cloth. 2. Each player places his small disks in a row in front of him at equal distances from the cup, and playing in turn, endeavors to so jump a disk that it will fall into the cup. 3. If a player succeeds in popping a disk into the cup, he is entitled to a second turn, and so on until he fails. 4. After the game is begun, a player must jump his disks from where they lie on the table. (If any fall off they must be replaced near the edge.) 5. The player who first pops all his disks into the cup wins the game. 6. A ring not over five inches in diameter may, if the players desire, be drawn around the cup, and all disks falling in the ring outside the cup are considered out of the game. 7. If the players choose partners they can jump each other's disks. 8. Players must not touch a disk belonging to an opponent; hence, if a disk falls so as to partially cover another, the under one cannot be played until the upper one is removed by the player to whom it belongs.4½ inches wide — 7 inches high — 1⅝ inches deep
