PARI.0R yUGGLERY.

The young people will find the follow
ing experiments a never failing sour0 of
amusement. They are all susceptible of
explanation upon natural principles, ard
no parent can object 10 them upon the
ground that suthin' is wrong about
'em." These tricks are not only healthy
but perfectly sure in their results.
THE CABLE.-Take piece of tarred
carefully in two with a sharp knife, and
then try and chew the ends together
You can try as long as you like.
THE NAIL TRICK. - Take two large
wrought iron nails, and wire them to-
gether in the form of cross. 1t will
then be found impossible to swallow
them. There is no deception about that.
THE MAGIC Eees.-Put twelve eggs
carefully into q green wersted bag
Swing the bag rapidly around your head,
hitting it each time on the door post
Then ask the company it they will have
them boiled, scram bled, or fried. 1t will
make no difference which they choose.
The MAGIC STICK.-To do this trick
properly you will need a peail handled
knife and stout hardwood stick, some
two inches in length. Sharpen the ends
of the stick, and then try to crush it end
ways either between your hands or by
sitting upon it. This, TO your astonish
ment, you will find it is impossible to do.
The Four JAcKs.--Select pack of
cards with plain backs, Take out the
four jacks and burn them before the COM
psny, letting them see the ashes. Now
shuttle the cards quickly, and holding
them in the left hand give them smart
rap with the right; then place them on
the table with the face down and defy
the company to fad the jacks. They
can't do it.
THE FLYING HES.-Select a large,
well-fed hen, the color immaterial, though
black is the best, and place her in sit
ting posture on some smooth surface !;
then over her place pasteboard box
eighteen by thirty inches. Pound smart
ly upon the top of the box with bone
handled knife for three minutes, and then
suddenly raise it, when the hen will i'm
mediately fly away. This trick can be
performed by any person of average in
telligence, who gives his whole mind 10
it.

ART DEPARTMENT, 1874.

The illustrations of TIE ALDINE have
won a worldwide reputation, and in the art
centers Of Europe it is an admitted fact that
its wood-cuts are examples Of the highest per-
fection ever attained. The common prejudice
in favor of steel plates is rapidly yielding to
recognizes the advantages of superior artistic
quality with greater fac1lity of production -
The wood-cuts Of THE ALDlNE possess all
