You
must
imagine
the
four
words
printed
as
above
upon
your
table.
You
must
deal
your
first
card
upon
the
imaginary
M
in
MUTUS,
and
the
second
on
the
imaginary
M
in
NOMEN,
the
two
next
cards
on
the
two
imaginary
U’s,
the
two
next
on
the
two
T’s,
and
so
on.
You
have
now
only
to
ask
each
person
in
which
row
his
two
cards
now
appear,
and
you
will
at
once
know
which
they
are.
Thus,
if
a
person
says
his
two
cards
are
now
in
the
second
and
fourth
rows,
you
will
know
that
they
must
be
the
two
cards
representing
the
two
I’s,
that
being
the
only
letter
common
to
those
two
rows.
If
a
person
indicates
the
first
and
fourth
rows,
you
will
know
that
his
cards
are
those
representing
the
two
S’s,
and
so
on.
THE
MAGIC
TRIPLETS.--This
trick
is
precisely
similar
in
principle
to
the
last,
but
twenty-four
(instead
of
twenty)
cards
are
used,
and
they
are
dealt
in
triplets,
instead
of
pairs.
After
the
spectators
have
made
their
selection,
you
take
up
the
cards
as
directed
for
the
last
trick,
taking
care
to
keep
the
respective
triplets
together.
You
then
deal
them
in
rows
of
six,
the
formula
in
this
case
being:
