Trick with a Plate.

Do you know how to balance china
plate on the point of needle and even
to cause it to spin steadily upon this
delicate support?
Cut two corks down the middle, and
in the ends of the four halves thus OBJ
tanned insert forks, inclined to- the
smooth sides Of the corks at little
less than right angles.
Place these -four corks around the
rim of the plate at equal distances from
one another, and see that the teeth or
the forks are in contact with the rim,
to prevent them from swayfng.
With little care this plate cpz
now be balanced on the point "
needle whose eye has g5een lried in
the cork Of an upright bottle.
BY giving It a gentle rotary motiOn
the plate may be made to spin around,
which it will do for quite long time,
