THE FOUR KINGS. Take the four kings and two knaves out of a pack of cards, and spread the kings only before the audience, in order that it may be seen that they are the king&, at the same time hiding the two knaves between the third and fourth king ; then place the six cards at the bottom of the whole pack, face downwards, on the tablt. Lift up the pack and remove the bottom card, which will be the fourth king; let it be seen that it is a king, and place it on the top of the pack. Take the next... two cards, which will be the knaves, carefully keeping them from being seen, and one by one place them in different positions in the pack. This arrange- ment will leave one king at the top of the pack and three kings at the bottom, but as the kings only have been shown, it will appear as though there was one king at the top, one at the bottom, and the other two in different positions in the pack. Let any one present cut the cards, and the performer, while placing the bottom cut on the top, may say that he is now, without apparently altering the relative position of any of the cards, going to bring the four kings together into the middle of the pack.
