spreads the handkerchief already produced

Of 1t nips the bead or loop protrudiDg from
one or other Of the pockets. When he
raises the visible handkerchief the other is
drawn out of the pocket, and hangs down
behind 1t. He rolls them rapidly together,
and again unfolds them, when the one is
found to have become two. A repetition
OF the process produces the third handker-
chief In like manner.
The same effect may be secured by the
simpler expedient Of rolling up the two ex-
ira handkerchiefs into a neat ball and
'vesting" them Q.e., tucking them under
the lower edge of the vesD. one on each
side just below the vest pocket

kerchief become of late among wizards that
cne can hardly visit a magical entertain
Inent without finding ii figure more or less
prominently. Nor is the reason far to seek.
1t is as easy of manipulation as it is ef-
fectve in use. and with a few simple in
structions and moderate amount of prac-
tice there Is nothing to prevent even the
most diffldent of our readers astonishing
his friends a handkerchief conjurer.
In the first place. it is to be noted that
the handkerchief is not the big bandana of
many colors affected by elderly gentlemen.
but much more modest affair say twelve
TO fourteen inches square, and of peculiar
ly thin and soft silk. Such handkerchief
may be compressed into space of less
than cubic inch, though when released
the elasticity of the material causes il in
stantly to expand, forming a loose ball of
considera BILE size. 1t is this com bination of
apparent bulk with actual compressibility
which enables the amateur wizard to pro-
0uce with 1t the various surprising effects
we propose to describe.
From Empty Hands.
There are two or three ways of produc-
ing handkerchief from empty hands but
one will be sufficient for our purpose. and
We will give preference TO the most in
genious. The handkerchief is packed. by
aid OF a pencil or a bit of stiff wire. into
celluloid. and colored to match the hand
At the right moment this Is inserted be-
tween the second and third fingers of the
hand, as In Fig. 1. 1t seems incredible, but
II Is nevertheless true that II the hands are
Kept In gentle motion the presence of
additional finger is never by any chance
noticed Having shown the hands back
and front. apparently empty, the performer
brings them together, and in doing folds
down the dummy finger into the palm.
The fingers of the hand remote from the
spectators then get hold of the handker-
chief and gradually work IT out toward the
finger tips The finger remains in the
hand. and is al the first opportunity drop
ped Into a pocket or behind some conyen-
tent object. or the handkerchief may be
spread over the hand containing it and
both removed together.
An approved professional method OF turn
ing enc handkerchief into two. and the
two into three. is to have a little pocket
made In the outer seam of each trouser leg
about midway down the thigh. In each Of
these Is slowed away a silk handkerchief

bead or loop Of thin black wire. This -

the two little balls. one in each hand. The
handkerchief is rolled together and when
again unfolded that In the right hand is
unfolded with it. The handkerchief has
now become two. These are rolled to-
gether, and the third handkerchief pro-
duced. If the feat is deftly performed the
illusion is complete.
Into u Billiard Ball.
The secret of changing a handkerchief
into a billiard ball lies mainly In the billiard
ball, which is hollow, with an opening
about an inch in diameter. or a little
more, in one of it's sides. This ball placed
beforehand in a convenient pocket, is Sc
cretly got into the left hand and the hand
kerchief laid over 1t. with its center just
over the opening of the ball. A circular
rubbing movement of the opposite hand
upon this part of the handkerchief causes
1t to work itself gradually into the ball.
the center going in first, and the corners
being the last to disappear. When the last
corner has found Its way inside, the hands
are opened, and the ball is exhibited In
the right hand. the opening being next the
palm, and therefore invisible.
To Vanish a Billiard Ball.
solid billiard ball may be used for the
purpose of another very effective trick. The
additional apparatus consists (see Fig. y
OF clear glass shell exactly covering half
the ball, and a tumbler, with or without a
foot, but of such a size and shape as to
accommodate the ball comfortably in its
lower portion. The performer explains to

kerchief from the table with his right
hand, gets the tube into the other hand.
Then, standing with his left side to the
spectators, in which position the elastic is
hidden from view by the arm, he begins to
work the visible handkerchief into the end
C. of the tube. This forces out the green
one from the opposite end, changing, ap
parently, the one into the other. When the
red handkerchief is fairly housed and the
green one fully produced, he makes slight
forward movement of the hanCs and at the
same time releases the tube. which in
stantly flies, drawn by the elastic, under
the coat and up to the armpit.
To Vanish Silk Handkerchief.
1t is obvious that the apparatus last de-
scribed, when not used for the color-chang
irg trick will be equally available to van
ish" a Landkerchief-the only difference
being that the second handkerchief will not
be used. There are, however, simpler con-
trivances for this purpose. Among the best
is a hollow ball of metal or celluloid, with
a hole in one side Gig. ~, after the fash
ion of the billiard ball already described,
but only half its size, and with an addition
in the shape of loop of fine gut or silk
thread, of such size to go freely over
the first finger and allow the ball to hang
either inside or outside OF the hand.
When the performer proposes to van
ish' the handkerchief the ball is, at start
irg, inside the hand. With the same hand
dts back toward the spectators) he picks
up the handkerchief, and then bringing the
hands together he waves them up and
down, and under cover of this movement
works the handkerchief into the ball.
When it is fairly in (having meanwhile
turned round SO as to face in the opposite
direction). ne tosses the ball over to the
back Of the hand, and opens both hands,
which are seen to be empty. This appara-
tus is equally available to produce a hand
