In this game one child is sent out of the room, and any one who can play the piano tolerably takes a place there. A pair of gloves, or any small object, must be hidden, and the banished one called in; and the business of the player is to indicate by the music when the seeker comes near the hiding-place. When at the greatest distance, the music is very low, and as mournful as possible ; as it is more nearly approached, the tones are louder and louder; and, when found, there should be a triumphal march or a gay reel. The game is varied by choosing something the player is to do, and letting the music show what it is. This is a game for children from eight to twelve, though I have seen older ones enjoy it.
