Luckey sister learned to hang by their
teeth by standing on their heads.
Paradoxical? Not a bit of It. The
greatest strain of an "Iron Jaw" act Is
not, as it would .'seem, upon the teeth.
Instead, It centers upon the mu.ies cf
the neok and shoulder. A long as these

muscles of the "Jaw remain likewise. But
allow the neck and shoulder muscle to
relax and the strain become too great.
Therefore It la that in training an "Iron
Jaw" act, the principal practice I that
of atandlng on one'a head. Hours are
consumed at this until finally the "Iron
Jaw" artists can stand on their heada for
an hour at a stretch. Then, and only
then, are they deemed strong enough to
attempt to hang by their teeth.
Of course the Luckeys are to appear
