Shu makes any motions which shu pleases, such as lifting hor nrms, ox-tending ox-tending her lmnd, sighing, putting her hand to her head, etc.; In fact, any kind of nbsurd gesture, saying at tho same time, "Thus does tint Grand Mufti!" or "So does the Grand Mufti!" Muf-ti!" Now, thoso two words, "thus" and "so," make tho game; for when she says "Thus doos," etc., ovory ono must make just the same gosturo, or do the uam thing; but when she says, "So does the Grand Mufti," no ono must imltato hor; If any plnyor doos, she pays a forfolt.
