i
A flat, curved tobacco cau like the one In the above drawing must be
used for this trick. After the can Is filled with water, the performer places
the first two Augers of each hand inside the can on both sides and pulls the
sides apart, changing the cun from concave Into a circular shape. As the can
Is spread apart the water Inside will be lowered until the can Is slightly over
half tilled, it will then be possible to pour almost as much again Into the can
without the water overflowing. Although the square-inch surface of tin In the
can does not iucrease by pulling the sides apart, the space will be almost
doubled. It would take too much space to explain the reason for this, so the
reader will have to figure it out for himself.

TAXING A COIN FROM UNDER HAT WITHOUT
TOUCHING HAT
vou unto (
TUE MAT // l
There Is no illusion or magic connected with this trick, it is merely
Intended for a little fun. l’lace u coin under a hat nnd announce that you
will bring the coin forth without lifting the lint. Make a few hypnotic passes
over the hat, close your hand, and tell the onlookers that you have the coin
In your hand. Some curious person will lift the hat and Hint the coin still in
Its original position. You then pick the coin up and you will have taken it
from under the hat without lifting the hat. The hi. a is that somebody else,
not you, lifts the hat

It Is possible for an average-sized child or a small udult to step through
n playing card. Get a good quality linen card, mark it like the above draw
ing and cut it along the marked lines. You will then be able to spread it
apart and there should be untjile room for a child to pass through. As the
•edges of the card remain Intact, it can be said that little Jolmny or Mary has
actually stepped through the card, much in the mauuer that animals Jump
through paper hoops in a circus.

Why Left-Hand Operation?
! That question is asked by many pas
angers riding for the first time on tht
Chicago and North Western Railway
I or by those patrons who suddenly
realize that the“extra" track or tracks
' seen out the window are on the right;
and it’s rot strange that conductor.'
1 trainmen and information clerks art
asked that question daily, fot; thf
j Chicago and Northwestern Railway i
j ihe only left-hand operated railway in
the United Sta es.
The answer is easy. It was nc
I builder’s whim that started the North
‘ Western double-tracking for left-hand
operation nor superstition that kept
the system from being changed, it
was because most Uni ed States rail
roads were operated that way in the
19th century and th** North Western
didn’t find sufficient reasons for chang
ing when the others did.
Double Tracking Started in 1855
When the railroads of the country
first started building lines many of
them were financed by English and
Dutch capital. The Galena and Chi
cago Union Railway, parent road of
the Chicago arid North Western Rail
way, was one of these. English and
Dutch engineers were schooled in left
hand operation and built all road3 for
that system. Consequently, when
double-tracking was started on what
is now the Galena Division of the
North Western towards Oak Park and
West Chicago in 1855, switches and
equipment were designed for operation
opposite to the right hand system
practiced on other railroads of the
United states today. By 1882 double
tracking had beenstarted on all three
suburban divisions of the road in what
is known as the Chicago suburban
territory.
