After Dinner Trick S
No. 254-The Three Balls

Three wooden beads or balls with
holes drilled through them are threaded
on two cords. The ends of the cords
are held by spectators. The performer
covers the balls with a handkerchief
and Immediately removes them from the
cords.
The secret lies in the fact that
the strings do not pass through the
balls Zach string is doubled back, as
shown in the explanatory diagram, but
as both loops meet in the center of the
middle ball, it appears as though the
cords passed through Two spectators
are each given two opposite ends. All
that the performer has to do is to pull
the balls off the string and tell tha
spectators to pull tight on the cords
and the trick is done.
