Magic for Your Party M ASTER this in p r e para- tion for contrib uting it when guests get around to doing tricks: Hand .a number, , of pennies to one.' 1 of the spectators. Ask him or her to place an odd number in one . hand and an even number in the other (each hand must contain at least one coin). Y/ou then explain that by a simple calculation you will foretell which hand contains the eveh number of coins and which the odd number. Ask the spectator to multiply the number In his right hand by an odd figure and the number in his left hand by an even figure, and then tell you the product of these. If the result is an even number, the even number of coins is in.the right hand; if it is odd, the even number is in the left. Grandpas Bird Concern G RANDFATHER used to raise turkeys for the Christmas market. He sold them for what were nice prices in those days, we can surmise. Among grandfather's papers this bill was found: $ -67.9-, for 72 turkeys. The first and last digits that obviously represented the total price of these fowls are replaced here with blanks, for they have faded and are now illegible. What are the two faded digits and what was the price of one turkey ? .^.jj „, iCaipm ouo jo eojjd etfj ptni 'Z6'A9SS S[ wq ^pnen eqi snqi •]Z tnns sp n ejtBia 0} japjo u\ g aq }snui JinBiq }&in Bin os '*z B\ z P\B 6 'i '9 jo urns aqi '6 £<\ 0[qis[Aip aq jsnui jaqtunu B j o S }i3ip eqj jo urns atn '6 A \q eiqjejAjp aq o x •U3A9 zSL °m sao3 8 asnBoaq 'e B| }i3|p ; SBJ aqj ejojaaaqj, •g A \q eiqisiAip aq ;snm S }[2ip oajio ; BBJ aqj jCq pamaoj jaqtnnn aq} '8 £q 6[q[SjAip aq o) 8*1233 jo jsqiunn pno?
