to let the matter rest for time.

Lennard suffered a deep cash below

After Dinner Trick S

Balance a number of coins on the
forearm, just below the elbow. as shown
in the diagram. To catch the coins
swing the forearm sharply downward
and the hand will overtake and catch
them at just the right instant.
Practice the trick with one coin and
then more, as you become proficient.
In a very short time the juggle can be
done with fifteen or twenty coins Of
varying sizes and it will become harder
to miss them than to catch them.

are entangled with the barb wiro
which IT seems almost impossible to
move. MIR. Jemison told of the Won
derful future of the city of Birming-
ham and urged that all young men
own first few feet of ground be-
fore they put their money in auto
mobiles and also advised them to
save their funds.

ule and ask for any changes that
