He invites a member of the audience to fill the pot with earth, and then places it on the table. Performer then proceeds to fan the pot, after he has placed in some seeds, and to the accompaniment of slow music a STAGE ILLUSIONS 59 magnificent tree is seen to appear gradually covered with real flowers and leaves. When it has fully grown performer cuts off the flowers and presents them to the audience. The secret of this trick depends on the old principle of Black Art, and, as will be seen in th...e illustration, the table has three legs. Between the front leg and the two back legs is stretched some velvet to match the back cloth, which hides a round tube with a lift arrangement operated by a string or clockwork. The flowers are inserted in this tube, and, of course, rise as required. The pot is really a double one, or rather one with an outer shell; this shell has no bottom, and when the performer passes near the servante of another table or chair he allows the solid pot containing the earth to slide out, consequently it is only the shell he places on the table, which will allow of the tree to pass right through.
