Having once had friend who
could walk the tight rope In an
amateur way and would have no
doubt picked up slack-wire art, too,
if he had not for some strange rea-
son decided to become a poet and
playwright instead, we have always
been interested in the technique OF
such stunts. M. Wallin explains that
in his routine, governed by the fact
one end of the wire is attached to
flexible object, one watches the
movable terminal That is the
balance point, and as every step pulls
it either to one side or the other,
it is necessary to anticipate which
way the wire will sway and lean the
other.
That trick where he whirls over
and over on the wire has proved less
troublesome than you might expect.
He has been hurled off only once,
and went to the hospital for nice

for her part has had few teeth jerked

More work is the only salvation.
| We recommended to Wallin (who
incidentally was a lad on a flying
trapeze before he started this sort of
thing) the favorite stunt of the first
rope walker we knew. Consists of
balancing a chair against the wall,
calling for three fresh eggs, which
are broken into china bowl, the
bowl balanced between rungs of the
chair. Six pillows placed at one pace
distance on the floor, leading up to
the chair in straight line. A rope

per directions by the people to be
treated to the miraculous stunt.
