THE MYSTERIOUS BOUQUET.
A pack of cards, into which have been shuffled again several cards
drawn by the audience and to be remembered, is thrown into the heart of
a bouquet. The chosen cards, while the performer merely holds the
bouquet, appear, one by one, at the top of his wand.
Explanation.—The audience take cards "forced" on them,
and the duplicates of them are already in place in the bouquet. They
are driven upwards and out by several means, among which is the running
a thread over and under each card in turn, and pulled by its being
wound upon a wheel, moved by a spring. The conjurer has but to release
the wheel. Other ways have been described in earlier volumes of this
Series.
