# Title
37

A spectator rolls a cigarette paper into a pellet and retains it; after freely selecting a card, on opening the pellet the name of the chosen card is found written inside.

38

Essay on the importance of appropriate, motivated gestures in conjuring — using each hand for its proper purpose rather than awkward same-hand indication toward props.

38

Solutions for a bare stage: a jointed fishing rod with net bag reaches front rows for borrowing and returning articles, and a stage-bound card force eliminates leaving the platform.

39

A small bag repeatedly shown empty produces an egg under seemingly impossible conditions; spectators are shown the supposed secret, then fooled again equally completely.

40

A large silk depicting a rabbit in an opera hat is produced; the hat materializes under the silk; a spring rabbit is pulled from the hat.
