Ing an inside wallet with steel edges, to
which is attached spiral spring chain
that runs down inside the trousers and
Is fastened to the foot. This elegant
machine is sewed fast between the vest
and the vest lining horizontally, within
easy reach Of the right hand, and, for
the sake of comfort, the person who
uses it opens couple of buttons of his
vest, the room being warm, and affects
to keep his handkerchief there and to
use it frequently. His plan is to put
away in the hold-out one card of each
suit in order to fill flushes, and perhaps
a couple of aces, although it is danger
Gus to hold out aces for any length of
time, since they are
Liable to BE Missed.
But given four clubs in the hand of
the person who uses the hGld-out, all
that he has to do is to stretch his leg:
out comes the inside wallet with the re-
CURED club. This club joins the other
four, the handkerchief is used to wipe
the face and put back with flourish,
and the flush is probably winner. As
the reader will learn from the advice of
the manufacturer of one of these ma
chimes. which is appended below, it is
not polite to do this business constant
ly. Common sense indicates that one
must hot always win. Hear the In
VentOr and manufacturer:
"GentS: | am now prepared to fur
nish you with the latest improved vest
holder, which for simplicity, durability
and finish, is par excellence. 1t will
not break or get out of order, anybody
can use it, it works smooth aud noise
less, and it is as perfect as it can be
made after many years OF careful study
1t does away entirely with the Old-faSh-
loned and clumsy breastplate. 1t is now
an article of merit and value received
for the money ten times over; anybody
can use it successfully with very little
practice, without fear of detection for
months, in any game where it has not
been previously exposed.
Like all modern improvements, its
simplicity is greatly i'll its favor; it is
strong and Serviceable; no springs to
rust or break or weaken and get out of
order; in fact, 1t is the modern hold-out,
and If the man will do his work, the
machine will do its work. Any ordi-
nary poker player, with moderate
amount of discretion, can use it month
after month in nine out of every ten
poker games in the country; it Is fine
invention, and any one that plays cards
Tor living needs III more tnan Iney 90
snide jewelry or fiasy clothes, with
holes in their pockets
Instead of Dollars.
There is but one way to gamble sue
cessfully, and that is to get tools to
work with, and get the best of every
game you get into"
An implement that has also been
much used, but is still unknown to
many unsuspicious card players, is the
"Bug." The manufacturer enlarges
upon this as follows:
"This is an Invention for the purpose
of hiding out any number of cards,
and it will do it. 1t is very simple in
its construction, easy to operate, and
any person who knows that two and
two are four can use it. 1t can be car
ried in the vest pocket all the time, and
is always ready for use, not liable to
get out of order, and should it do SC
any matchmaker can put it in order fol-
trifle, as the whole expense of manu-.
facture is only about fifty cents. Then
Hhy ask three dollars for it, you may
say? For this reason: that one Is all
Fou would ever want to buy, as they dc
