the seed left in the center, the reverse side having a
black spot in the center, the body being plain. Two seeds have a
buffalo's head on one side and the reverse simply two crossed black
lines. There is but one seed of this kind in the set used by the
women. Two seeds have half of one side blackened and the rest left
plain, so as to represent a half moon; the reverse has a black
longitudinal line crossed at right angles by six small ones. There
are six throws whereby the player can win, and five that entitle him
to another throw. The winning throws are as follows, each winner
taking a pile of the ghost's goods:

[Illustration: FIG. 45.--Auxiliary throw No 5.]

Two plain ones up, two plain with black spots up, buffalo's head up,
and two half moons up wins a pile. Two plain black ones up, two
black with natural spots up, two longitudinally crossed ones up, and
the transversely crossed one up wins a pile. Two plain black ones

either of the half moons or buffalo's head up, the player takes a
pile. Two plain ones up, two with black spots up, two half moons up,
and the transversely crossed one up entitles to another throw, when,
if all of the black sides come up, excepting one, the throw wins.
One of the plain ones up and all the rest with black sides up gives
