clever young man pushed himself or WAS
pushed forward to exhibit his select il meager
stock Of card tricks2 CARD tricks are many and
almost universally interesting because so
much depends on skill in manipulation. and.
like the work OF the professional magician. the
play OF the amateur is valued in proportion to
tie skill with which he accomplishes his pur-
pose
SOMETHING NEW.
A Young man who attends great many card
parties and who has been responsible for the
introduction at many New York houses Of the
old-fashioned game o: dominos' has by long
and probably weary experiments with the OBJ
long blocks been enabled to build them into
queer and striking combinations.
To anv one at all familiar with the subjec;
the difference between cards and dominos
ina,e~ial for trick manipulation is known to be
a wide ono.
Cards. 10 borrow the words of an amateur
entertainer, can be called when in a pack "a
and manipulated with one hand. tits entirely
dlferent with dominos. They cannot be ma
nipuated while hidden or reversed. At least
no definite purpose can be accomplished with
them by this sort OF handling.
Our young expert. therefore, was obliged TO
make his tricks on the basis OF arrangement
and matching. His first public experiment
With the little oblong blocks took the form of
suggesting to the company the making Of GER
tain things with a given number of dominos.
He did not make the mistake Of working out
his trick for the reward of a momentary ex-
preston of surprise or admiration. but tried to
give the company longer spell Of pleasure BY
doing the tricks themselves

planned. As they can be memorized rather
easily, they may come in handy at some little
family gathering The subject is broad one,

We are exploitng-there are pleTty of clever
folks who can experiment an extent of almost
unlimited success.
As is the case with many card tricks, the
domino trick is very easily done when you
know how to do it,

and easily reached result. based on the direc-
ton of the trick maker that some one take
eleven dominos from one set, all Of the skies TO
he included in the number and so arrange them
that wherever they were hung" to one another
they should match. Doubles must be laid
crosswise, according TO the rules of the
game as ordinarily PLAYED. The whole lot were
to match. and the total number Of spots on
them must aggregate eighty-five.
WITH ELEVEN DoNINos.
Before seeing the result this problem, az it
might be called. is somewhat mysterious. be-
cause there are three distinct things that must
be borne in mind outside of the limit set az to
the amount Of pieces. First all the skies must
come into play: next there is the difficulty Of
selecting eleven pieces that will match readily
when certain number OF them is taken on
compulsiSn. and lastly. the certainty that the
total will come out right.
The diagram shows the simplicity Of this ar
rangement. although this simplicity was not
made apparent for some timeH,fter the problem
was given out for solution. The trick was done
finally by yoang lady after TWENTY-FIVE
minutes pretty hard work
