Perhaps the first player will answer, 'Cocoa,' and that will be correct; but if the second player should say, 'Chocolate,' he will have to pay a forfeit, because there is a 'T' in chocolate. This is really a catch, as at first every one thinks that 'tea' is meant instead of the letter 'T.' Even after the trick has been found out it is very easy to make a slip, as the players must answer before 'five' is counted; if they cannot, or if they mention an article of food with the letter 'T' in it, they must pay a forfeit.
