Timid little Mrs. Peter Rabbit was

she thumped signal, but there was
no reply. The baby Rabbit did not
appear. She knew then that he must
havc wandered away.
Peter wasn't about at the time.
Little Mrs. Peter didn't want to leave
The other babies, but she felt that she
must. She led them TO the very safest
place III the dear Old Briar- patch and
charged them not TO movn until her
return. Then she started out to look
for the lost baby ~1pperty- ippe rty-
lin she ran a,lN-ot5 the little paths all
through the dear Old Brar- patch She
looked under every bramble bush. She
looked everywhere that it seemed
possible little Rabbit might be hid :

OF the lost baby.
Finally she came out TO the edge Of
the Old Brier-patch close by the new
home Of Johnny Chuck and Polly

With q bound little Mrs. Peter was

quicker than can tell it she was

For moment she forgot everything
but the Joy Of finding her lost baby.
She forgot Johnny Chuck. She forgot
that they were right out in the open

Chuck grinned as he watched her
look thai stray baby all over to make
sure that he was whole and unhurt.
As soon as she was sure of this she
turned and without so much as d

When they had disappeared in the Old

and slowly made his way back to his

them twice to make sure. Then she

The Two Squares.

TT will be noticed that all OF the
puzzles presented in this de-
partmenr of The Evening World
have this In common:
They can be presented by the
reader fer the entertainment of his
friends and require only the use of
a little know how and articles
which can be obtained anywhere. A
puzzle in which coins, matches and
other odds and ends are used is far
more effective than those manufac-
tured puzzles which appear to be
exactly what they are.
Here is a puzzle in which twenty
four matches are used. 1t will puzzle
your friends quite as much as any
mechanical affair and it has this ad-
vantage. After you show how it is
done, your friends can puzzle their
friends with it,, just as they were
puzzled.

The Mysterious Cigarette.

THIS is an excellent after dinner
trick that can be performed by
anyone who smokes cigarettes.
All that is needed is a cigarette and
a glass of water.
Calling attention to himself, the
performer blows a pun Of smoke into
the air. takes the cigarette out OF his
mouth and touches the lighted end
to the water. There is a sizzle and
the cigarette is dead"
Replacing 1t in his mouth. however,
he smokes away Just as if he had
not drowned the smoke,
The fact OF the matter is that the
cigarette is lighted at both ends.
This can be done while attention is
diverted by some other diners story.
With reasonable care, one of the
lighted ends can be placed in the
mouth and the cigarette smoked iust
as II there was nothing unusual
about It, When the performer takes
the cigarette out of his mouth he
hides with his hand the end that
comes out of his mouth. His hand
also hides the reversal of the ends
when II Is replaced in his mouth.
The evening world., 1922-01-14

NINE coins are placed on the
N table and those who don't
know how the trick is done
are requested to arrange them so
that they will make ten rows OF three
coins each. 1t is obvious that each
coin must have a place in more than
ono row-but how is it to be done?
Answering the first question that
will be asked those who try are in
formed that it does not make any
difference how far separated the coins

Christmas trees-the larger the better.
He will also need a confederate. \

TO the professional appearance OF the
stunt, Before he presents the tricN.
the crystal gazer writes a question,
signs it with his confederate's Initials,
and hides il under the sweatband of "A
derby hat An excellent question Is;
"Wn / ever become rich?

Slips OF paper are distributed to the
audience Each person is asked to
write a question fold II and put it in
the hat which the performer passes
around The confederate does not
put anything into the hat although he
pretends to put his question in.
The performer polishes the crystal
with the velvet and soberly peers into
1t, pretending that the conditions seem
very poor and indicating that he is
not confident that the experiment will
be entirely successful Then he takes
q paper out of the hat, holding it 80
that the audience can see that he does
not unfold IL Peering once more into
the crystal and not falling to polish
1t frequently, he slowly and with
much hesitation says:
'I see a question signed B. l see

Is w. H. n WIN the person who
signed a question w H b. please

continues, making the performance as
