Card playing as a pastime was In- | troduced into England early in the sev- enteenth century. In 1643 a law was passed in London forbidding the im- portation of playing cards. It became a fashionable court amusement in the reign of Henry VII. Whist, in its pres- ent stage, was not played until about 1760, Some famous games were played shortly after that time in the Crown Coffee House in London OWN AN AUTOMOBILE.

Evolution, of Chuzzlewit. The selection of a title was always one of Dickens' first anxteties when he was beginning a new book. The now familiar name of Chuzziewit went through a curious process of evolu- tion. First it was Sweezleden, then Sweezleback, then Sweezleway. None of these would do. The Sweezle then became Chuzzle, and there was a new series of Chuzzletoe, Chuzzleboy, Chuz. zlewig, and finally Chuzzlewit.—How Dickens Found His Names.
