latestmagicbeing00hoff.pdf | 230 | 214 LATEST MAGIC I should like to mention. You hear people talk about the quickness of the hand deceiving the eye. I don't know whether the quickness of the hand ever does deceive the eye, but I want you to under- stand that you must not expect anything of that sort from me. I am naturally slow. I was born twenty minutes after I was expected, and I have been getting slower and slower ever since. "To-night, I intend to do everything even more slowly than usual: SO that you will only have to watch me closely to see exactly how it is all done. Then, when you go home, if you do as I do, and say as I say, without making any mistakes, no doubt you will be able to produce the same results. If not, there must be 'something wrong with the works.'' |
