"One Trick q Day"
A CARD TRICK WITH A TAPERED
 DECK

A CARD TRICK WITH A TAPERED
 This is most puzzling trick, the secret being, however, entirely me- chanical, but unless the prepared pack is examined very minutely, the trick is almost free from possibility of discovery.
 Secure a cheap pack of cards. Square it up between two pieces of wood and place it in a wise. Then. with a sharp plane or other cutting instrument. taper the top edge about one sixteenth of an inch.
 The performer spreads the cards out wise and requests member of his audience to draw card. tell ing him to look at it and remember it. Before the spectator returns the card into the pack, the latter is turned end for end, so that the card placed in the pack may be easily distinguished by the fact that it's tapered edge will be oposite to the edges of all the other cards in the pack.
 The chosen card may be picked frim the deck while holding 1t be- hind the back, which makes the trick more interesting and mysterious.

tell just what business is rep
resented in a town by looking
at the business mentioned in
the paper. This is the best
possible town advertiser. The
man who does not advertise
his business does an injustice

The man who insists on shar-

years have stood at the door

No! The men whose cause

are chiefly those who toll in
the hundred different places
of industry and who have
never lifted their voices to
ask anything of this govern
ment except just laws and
honest administration. They
are the men of the mine, the
mill, the shop, and the field.
