Th• secret: Not all cards are the same when turned up- side down. The point of an ace of spades, for instance, will change its direction. A seven of diamonds will have an extra diamond above or below, and a three of clubs will have two. of its clubs facing away from the third. You make a deck of cards like these (picture cards will not do), and have them all face the same direction. While you hold the deck behind you, you turn the deck upside down. When the victim replaces his card, it will be facing the wrong direction.
5. The Balanced Egg. No, you needn't do what Colum- bus did -- smash the end of an egg. The secret: you place a tiny pinch .of salt, fashioned like a golfer's tee, on a white ta- bleclo.th. Quickly balance the egg on the tee, and when you take away the egg, brush away the salt to remove the evi- dence of your trickery.
6. The Magic Mirror._ You ask your victim any question 2. The jumping jack. Select a jack from a deck of
cards, then place it in an empty glass. Presto! the jack jumps out of the glass.. This will prove. to any guest that you really are a card. The secret- Carefully sharpen a piece of soap to a point. Run the point end up and down opposite sides of a glass, in thin lines. Keep the glass hidden until you need it. When you put the jack into the glass., place its' sides against the soapy lines.
3. The Vanishing Coin. Borrow a half dollar from someone in your audience, and then "drop it down. your sleeve." Challenge anyone to find it even take off your coat. The .secret: lift up your left hand so that the opening of your sleeve is in front of your breast pocket. Hold the half dollar in your right hand, and drop the coin into. your eo•t pocket- not the sleeve.
4. Pick Any C•rd. This is a humdinger, but it's hard to explain. You ask someone to shuffle the deck you hold. Then he picks a card. After bringing the deck behind you, you ask the victim to. replace. the card. Then he reshurries it- but you can still identify the card he chose.
Want to be a Harry Houdini or a master of the Martini? It's easy to mystify guests with magic and delight them with clever barmanship. But first you must learn the secrets -- of both hoodwinking and good drinking.
To create a world where steel needles float on water, eggs stand on end, dimes waltz, jacks jump, and mirrors ans- wer questions, just learn these.
How To Turn The Trick
1. The fioa, ting needle. Ask someone in the audience to try to make a needle float on water. When he fails, it's your turn. Place a small square of tissue paper on the v•ater, and lay the needle o.n the tissue. The tissue will sink to the bottom after it's soaked, but the needle will continue to float. The secret-: as long as the needle's eye is not filled wi(h water, the needle will float.
-- about love, money, or what have you -- that can answer• "yes" or "no".
Hold a pocket mirror before his mouth, and have hi breathe on it. The answer will appear in ghost-like writing.
The secret- Before a party begins, use French chalk' write "yes" on top of the mirror and "no" on the botto' (You can get French chalk at any •art store.) Brush t• chalk dust off with a silk handkerchief so.;th•"•.:•the writing invisible. Breathing on the mirror will bring?•'e messages .. •::-•: --
light. To get a "yes" or "no" answer, hold the 'top or hottot part of the mirror in front of the victim's lips•
How To Be A Master Mixer
Since your refreshments should sparkle as brightIs. your entertainment, your reputation as a party-giving wiza_- will be complete if you can mix an ideal Martini and give other cocktails that "just-right" touch.
In the barology department, the secret isn't sleight hand but buying the right brand. Soda and cocktail ingredi- ents can't really pretty up the flavor of a poor liquor or dis- guise the taste of a good one. And follow, to the letter, a good
cocktail recipe. You must blend ingredients in exactly the order call for by the recipe. The reason? One example: whiskey doesn:q• mix evenly throughout a drink, but "floats" on top. must always be the first ingredient that goes into. the glas• 't
In making an ideal Martini, the .dryness of the Verm(' is vital but often neglected. The fussiest Martini-fanciers • be pleased if you use an extra-dry Vermouth the will say "extra-dry".
What are the proportions of a good Martini? That can be a fighting question.
Some extremists prefer five parts of gin to one of Ver- mouth -- and even seven or eight to one. But most reci .•..•s
call for three or four to one. To make a Gibson, do more than just substitute a pea
onion for an olive. Increase the gin, from three to four part•. An almost sure-fire way to ruin a drink is to measure tl
.
the taste of a highball or cocktail quite as effectively.
When a recipe calls for 1• ounces, use your jigger glas to measure. If I ounce is required, use a pony. A "dash" mear, one or two drops.
For the most refreshing drinks possible, chill the glas••.-'s first, and prepare the bar fruit just before you plan to use i' 'Even under refrigeration, fruit and fruit juices tend to losc• much of their flavor after they have been opened. A ti•:::- you'll get up to one-third more juice from an orange or lem .'•?•' if you run warm water over it before use. " .
Every host should be a good mixer -- and it's a g,, :i':% idea to mix your fine refreshments with refreshing-entertain"i:;" ment. With this party combination, you'll earn a toast-as host with that "magic touch" ß

.. BONANZA -- Television's first full-hour color filmed series is in its third season on the NBC-T¾ Network this Fall. A Sunday night feature for the 1961-62 season, the series bases its dramas on the fictional Cartwright family --- Ben, the father (Lorne Greene, third from left), and sons Adam (Pernell Roberts, lelt},
Hoss (Dan Blockeri and Little Joe (Michael I. andonl.
When Senate GOP leader Everett Dirksen surprised Pre- sident Kennedy recently by showing him a key marked "White House -- Back Door," it was only the latest episode in a 5,000 year old story full of odd twists.
Keys are at least that old; they have been 'found in the most ancient Egyptian tombs. Some of the most famous pas- sages in the Bible mention keys. Keys have been used to hunt witches, cure nosebleeds and headaches, even divorce an un- wanted mate!
Superstitious folk have had a field day with keys. In .France it was once believed that a werewolf would instantly return ,to human form if struck between the eyes with a key• An only son in China is given a key to "lock himself into life."
In the days when people "knew" witches existed, a sure- fire means of identifying the evil ones involved the use of a Bible and a key. The key was placed in the Bible with the handle out. Grasping the handle, someone would recite: "Turn Bible, turn key, turn and show the name to me." Then the names of suspects we.re read out- and, so the legend says, the key turned at the mention of the guilty one's name.
In Norway, a big iron key was hung over the stalls of be- .
witched cattle to cure them. Mothers in Mediterranean coun-
tries still place keys on their babies to ward off convulsions.. Want a "sure" headache cure? Forget aspirin-- heat a key in a fire, then drench it in cold water, and place it on your forehead'! Hold a key against the nape of the neck to cure nosebleed.
Religion attaches symbolic value to the key as the power to open the heavens and hell. "And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulders; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open." (Isaiah 22- 22). There is an interesting echo of these words in the famous p ssa e (Matt. 16-19) in which Jesus confers "the keys of the kingdom of heaven" upon Peter.
Two crossed keys are on the•coat of arms adopted by the Holy Sea.
Keys have always been a status symbol. In ancient Rome, a-bride was .given the keys to her husband- and was consid- ered divorced if her keys were taken away. In the 15th and 16th centuries, keys were entrusted only to certain --. well, key officials, and the possession of them was a mark of power and prestige.
..
senator Dirks•n -confess ed that he h•d bought it:inca drug •store. Calculated to open eyes if not doors, the 'gold-plated key
and key chain was introduced just before the Presidential in-
ß
auguration by a novelty company which makes-an extensively zany line of "Krazy Keys" and sells them in drug, variety,. tobacco stores a. cross the country.
Want a key to. Fort Knox- Side Door? It's yours for ]• ß
29 cents. If you can't afford a new car this year, you can c sole yourself with a Krazy Key and chain marked "Rolls Royce" -- or one imprinted with'"Stolen Car". Others a identified as keys" for the county jail, nut house, men's roo ladies' room, dog house., happiness, and "my heart"!
Though these and other such novelty items are generallx•. bought on pure impulse., purchasers can bask in the satis tion of having made a very practical buy. Anything mu• .• be counted as practical that makes us less likely to lose. 'keys for, as a nation, we lose them in unbelievable quantities. ,
According to Cole National, the American public carrie• in its pockets and purses a staggering 121• million pounds of keys each day- and loses three tons of them each week!
Sometimes, they turn up in the darndest places -- ga- loshes, stockings, sugar bowls, ceiling fixtures, and trousers worn last week.
When keys can't be found, locksmiths are sometimes ca - ed upon to extricate babies, children, pets, and red-fa. adults from attics, bathrooms, cars, cellars- even public -
People are careless about their keys in other W•.?' Ti•e homeowner who installs an expensive lock on, ,the•-fr0nt door often has a lock on the cellar door that. a child could pick with a piece ,of wire. The. motorist who leaves the keys in th•..car in an unattended parking lot is making it easy for a car thief.
Always keep a complete set of spare keys with .Y.OU•-- 'm something you are never without, like your purse or wallet, you lose your keys and have no duplicates, it may ..cost twenty or thirty times the duplication cost to-replace-them. Another key safely tucked away in your wallet will have y time, money and cussing. And, at 35 or 40 cents, per key, is•':•i it inexpensive insurance.? You can get them made at any variety, drug, hardware or automotive store, at gas st'• '• rions, and the "ten-cent stores.
For people troubled with ornery keys, here are
more tips. If a new key doesn't quite fit well in its lock, ••.'l. • Lockease or a similar special graphite product. Never use The key will slip in more easily 'and speed up the. process of:- wearing off the rough edges. Rub your keys with a pencil nt•w
and then -- the graphite in the "lead" will prolong the life•f your locks.

Let the man from Equitable bring you peace of mind
THE
o.
Spot, my pony, knew the paper route. as well as I did. We always stopped in at Crip- ple Jake's instead of throwing the paper at the porch. Lots of nights he would keep me talking. He sat in a 'big wheel chair, one shriveled leg curled under him- and he
--didn't have any arms at all. He never men- rioned what had happened to him, but the folks down the line from his house told-me he was born that way. I liked him a lot.
Jake's sister lived with him she and her husband, Bull. Bull was most always drunk and used to block the doorway' 'til she come out and say, "Let that kid alone.". Then I'd scoot into Jake's room.
It sure was cold that night. I had just pulled off my mittens and sat down by Jake when I heard her scream. I can hear her yet! I tore open the door between Jake's room and the kitchen. Bull was swaying crazily, looking at the poker in his hand. At his feet lay Jake's sister. I could see the -blood. She. didn't move at all.
"Get out of here, Bu'b." It was $ake's voice. trom his room. I didn't wait. I bolted out the door and ran around to Spot.
Everybody looked at: me sitting there in the witness 'box at the inquest.
"Yessir. I took the paper to Mr. Sake -- like usual. I heard his sister scream. I saw her on the floor, but I didn't know she was dead. I didn't see anything more I ran."
The inquest was not only about Jake's sis- ter, clearly she had been slugged by Bull, it was also about Bull. himself. He had been found lying beside her, dead, shot through the. heart. Many people testified. Bull had so many enemies. He had quarreled that very afternoon down to Dinty's Saloon Tim Swan had sworn to get him. Old Man Meeks had told everyone in town that he was going to kill Bull on account of his daughter. There were others too- 'but they didn't fit the footprints found under the window. They' even carried Jake up to ask him ques- tions. He sat there in his. wheel chair just like he. was at home.. Everybody knew he couldn't move -- and we all liked Jake. He told his story.
"I was in my room. I heard him beating her. I couldn't do. a thing. He always beat her. I yelled for him to stop, then I heard the shot--"
They turned' in a verdict of "Death by person or persons unknown."
After a time the interest in the murders
died out. I wasn't nervous any more when I went in to take Jake his paper. I us-•d to stay and read to. him, 'til the lady that care of him came. •
One. day Ma said to me, "I know, set a lot of store by Cripple Jake, .but.-•'ve got to. tell you, Doc Turner says Jake's .•ly- ing -- something wrong inside.."
I cried myself to sleep that night. About two weeks later when I knocked
Jake's door, his voice was more cheer than since his sister di'ed. "Listen Bub he said, "I want you to do something me."
"Sure, Jake." "Ride over to Doc Turner's then t
Sheriff Nichols--. and ask them to col here -- now."
I hesitated at the door, feeling a little of nervousness. "Do you want I should come back too.?" I asked. -
"Most of all I want you here, too." responded.
About an hour later I returned wit! Sheriff and the Doc.
"Evening boys," said Jake affably. "Igvening Jake," they chorused. Jake 1ooi
ed over at me, and said gently, "Bub, ther on the table. is two newspapers pasted together take and pin them up on the kichen door."
Mystified I picked them up and unfolded them. They formed the-crude figure of a man, and where. a man's heart would • there as a shaggy red circle. I pinned' the pattern against the door. Jake dmiled, he turned to face the. two men.
"You want your murderer, don't y• Sherif,/? The Sheriff scratched his he•d, "Sure'. I began to tremble as I wat-.•_ed'::':?'-- Jake take off his carpet slipper and saw his foot move slowly toward the inside-'•poc- ket of his dressing gown. I saw the '.': .... curl around the handle of a small caliber pistol. Jake drew it out, then the noise the. pistol shattered the silence. We all star- ed at the bullet hole in the very center of the red circle. Jake replaced the gun in his pocket. "There!" he said. "I'm glad I done it."
The Doctor looked at the Sheriff. The Sheriff looked at the Doctor. I could feel a sympathetic current between the two. The Doctor cleared his throat, "Jake's a little delirious- the fever you know. I'll giy e him a .bromide.' ....
"Arrest me!" demanded Ja.ke., "I told and showed you how I done it.."
The Sheriff turned toward t-he door, don't believe it -- 'sides there ain't any' wi{- hess good-night Jake," and he slouche• out. i ..... After the Doe had gone, I sat down su• denly. My k.n,e,,es •ust buekled. Jake smile• at me. "Bu:b,' he said and his voice wa• very tired, "I'm leavin• my little farm t'• you.."
"Thanks." It was all I could say. I w•.• afraid I would break down and cry'.
Jake studied the ceiling carefully, didn't you tell at the inquest. I know yo.• saw me- when you got on your pony ---• you looked' in the window. Why didn't yog tell them?"
I hung my head a moment and then faced him, "I musta forgot."
Sake laughed for the first time since dreadful night:. "Bub . .. forgot! and you newsboy!"

In 1876 Bernard Mayli• and Hypolite Esparbl moved their coffee stall from the old Poydras Market to the 125-year-old building which still houses the celebrated Creole cuisine known as Mayli•'s. At first it was a modest family enterprise, the two men aided by their wives• 'who were sisters. And the intention was to provide only an eleven o'clock lunch or peti• ddjeuner ß for their discriminating patrons.
But all good things have a tendency to grow. It was soon discovered that Mme. Esparb• was a superb cook and the little dining room beside the bar was quickly filled to overflowing. Old patrons asked to bring 'their
