Chalk a floor or mark a space in exact copy of a bagatelle-board ten
feet long by three wide. In the inclosure, at correct distances, mark
the numbers; this may be done with chalk, or the numbers may be painted
on thin wooden blocks and laid in position. Each player must start
his marble at the extreme left-hand corner, and state before starting
the number he wishes to roll to. Should the marble go to that number,
and not roll on so as to touch another, the player counts the number
selected, and can then state another number and play for that, and can
so continue for seven minutes, provided his marble always hits the
number selected, and though rolling on, does not touch or stop at any
other. When his time is up his count is scored, and the next player
follows, subject to the same rules. Should the marble stop on the
number selected, it is counted double in favor of the player. Again,
should the marble, having reached the selected number, still roll on
and touch another, no count is allowed, and the player must stop until
his turn comes again.
