Maonetized FILINGS.

If you possess a magnet there are
more ways of amusement and instruc-
ton open to you than you have any
idea of. For instance, the following
experiment with iron filings will prove
most interesting, and will impart a
bit of useful knowledge:
Iron filings are procurable for the
asking in any machine shop or place
where there is an ironworkers lathe.
They are the minute particles of iron
that fall when the iron is being cut
or ground into shape, and possess the
same relation to iron as sawdust does
TO wood.
A bar magnet is necessary for what
you are to show. Lay it on table
or any fiat surface and then cover it
over with apiece of stiff cardboard.
Now sprinkle the iron filings over the
surface of the cardboard, and then a
very curious thing will happen.
The filings arrange themselves as
shown in the accompanying illustra-
lion, each particle forming part of

The Egg and Card Trick:

Stick an egg, the contents of which
have been blown out, onto the back of
card with a little wax. Now show
the card to the audience in such a
way that they do not see the egg. Now
holding up the card with the right
hand show the audience that your left
hand is empty. Then swing it around
and take the card in the palm of the
hand, at the same time holding onto
the egg with the right hand. With a
quick movement drop the left hand,
having the card in the palm, at the
same time disengaging it from the
egg, which remains in the right hand.
The audience doesn't see what has
become. of the card, but sees in the
place Of the card an egg. instead of
an egg you may use a small bunch
of flowers.

Good Forfeit Game.


The players all seize tablecloth or
a similar sheet by the edges. The
one who is chosen as leader says:
Il fish for all kinds of fish. When
| say, let CO. you must hold fast.
When I say hold fast you must let
CO."
Then the leader begins to speak
quickly, saying anything that comes
into his head, until suddenly he says,
''let go!" or "hold FAST" at time
when he imagines that he can catch
the others off their guard. Those who
are caught must pay forfeit.
One Of the players takes a spoon
and taps on the table with it, saying:
Who can't do this, can't do thing!
Spoon, spoon, spoon-sping, -,
Then she passes the spoon on to the
next one. But she does it in certain
manner by using the left hand, or
by holding the spoon with a certain
number of fingers, or by doing some
thing else unusual. The one who re-
ceives the spoon must do it over again
and again till she does it right and il
she cannot do it, she must pay for
