FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
How Two Persons May Perform a
Thought Reading Feat.

1t takes two persons, boys or
girls, to perform this feat, which is
very simple, but nevertheless mys-
tifying to. every one who has not
seen it.
One of the performers Leaves the
room, and the door is closed so that
he cannot hear what GOES or. Then
the company names some object
that the absent p'a"er is t. tell when
he returns.
When tie object has been agreed
upon the absent one is recalled, and
the first performer says:
"While you were out Of the room
I told the boys and girls here that
if they would name some object, no
matter what, you would guess it the
first trial on your return. Did you
hear the object named? No, of
course you didn't, for the door was
closed, and the name was spoken
in so low a tone that you could not
have heard. Now, let me ask, "Was
it a book" "No." "Was it a
vase" ''No." "Was it a chande-
lier?" "No." "Was it a chair %
no." "Was it flower" eyes"
Now, how did the player know
that it was a "hower?" Simply be-
cause the understanding between
the two performers is that the first
performer in asking those questions
names some four legged object just
before he names the one that the
company has agreed upon: When,
therefore, he asked, "Was it a
chair" his confederate knew that
ne would name the real object next,
because chair has four legs.
