T H E B E engravings A show the advan­ tages this hannle gives, as each curve forms a key or abutment, against the elastic substance. Although these handles are in two pieces f»om the shoulder of the blade, it is impossible to get them out of shape. These bats, introduced In 1889, have been used by the te3t Cricketers of England. Australia, and New Zealand, as well as having been Bent to India and Africa, and tho uni­ versal testimony is that nothing has ever been brought into the Cricketing world to give such advantages to the batsman in cutting and driving powers.
