How Hermann Studied.
A Mirror and a Boy From the Street
Used as an Audience.

Eighteen years ago a slender, thin
faced boy with dairy eyes and a Mephis-
TO nose stood before a mirror in a little
room on the Rou Montmorte in Paris.
His door was locked The neighbors.
who thought him crazy, were barred.
The youth was Leon Hermann, and
the mirror was his audience. It's pretty
hard to deceive a mirror either in the
matter of bad looks or bad tricks. Yet
young Hermann, for one solid year
tried day after day to deceive that mir
ror with his hands. But the mirror, with
the image OF Hermann in IL, saw every
thing, and the boy. a cOnJurer even at
that age. was dissatisfied with it. He
would not be deceived.
Sharp Eyes and Mirror.
So one Of those sharp featured chat
tering street gamins OF Paris was lured
/ into the room one day. Hermann was
only fourteen. His audience was of the
/ same age. The young magician put forth
! the charm of his magic. and the street
gemin. thinking him the devil, called
/ upon the Virgin for protection, and fed
| precipitately.
: The mirror had faithfully revealed
| faults. but the street urchiH had not
! detected them. Then the youth with the
Mephisto nose felt encouraged. He went
TO work again. But he let the mirror
severely alone, and devoted himself TO
his acquaintance. There is nothing so
gullible as the man who wants to be
gulled. There is none so blind as he who
will not see. Hermann found out this
truth, even at that early age. That was
the beginning of Leon Hermann in the
art OF magic.
1t was not the real beginning either
. Heredity saw to that Young Herr
manns father was a conjurer. So were
two of his uneles. At the early age Of
eight years he was taken in hand by
his father, to acquire his fathers skill
in magic. What he saw him do and
what he was shown he continually prac-
