A Card Trick.
There is an extremely easy trick
with cards which often puzzies wise
heads,
Take a pack of cards, and while
idly attracting the attention of the
company, glance at the bottom card,
then briefly explain that after show-
ing them a card, you will, without
glancing at the pack again, pick it
up and turn it over when it is thrown
down. Then casually draw the bot
tom card with its face away from
yourself, and show it to the others.
Then one of the party takes the pack
and shuffles the cards. Then the
trickstor takes the pack and begins
throwing the cards upon the table,
their faces up. When he comes to
the chosen card, he makes no sign,
and the onlookers, thinking he has
missed the guess, are amused. Sud.
cenly he gays:
"The next card I torn over will be
the chosen one” Generally the ory
is: "No, it will not be. You have
parsed it."
Whareupon from the pile on the ta-
ble, the card is taken and turned
over
