TO GUESS THE TWO ENDS OF A LINE OF DOMINOES

For this trick a whole set of dominoes is required, the performer

taking care to hide one of the set, not a double, in his pocket. The

remaining dominoes should be shuffled, and placed according to the

ordinary rules of domino games, and the performer undertakes to tell,

without seeing them, the two numbers forming the extremes of the line,

set during his absence from the room. The numbers on the extreme ends

of the domino line will be exactly the same as the numbers on the

domino which the performer has in his pocket. If he is asked to repeat

the trick, he should be sure to change the hidden domino, or he may

chance to be found out.
