THE NEWSPAPER MASK.
 As a simple feat, to amuse the juvenile during some accidental delay,
take a newspaper and fold up a portion about twenty inches square.
Double it, and, without stopping, tear off all the superfluous paper
from
A to B, A to B being the line of the doubled edge. Then tear out the
gap C, that of D, and that of E; and tear down the piece F, so as to
nearly detach it, but not quite. Three or four rents parallel at the
end B will form a fringe. Now open all out, when will be presented a
capital comic mask, holes for the eyes and tongue being in place, the
beard made, and the ears prominent. Practise this so as to perform it
most rapidly.
