4I.IUSION:
This very old illusion was invented by Indian
fakirs. The secret was Unearthed in IS49 by the
great magician, Rohert-Houdin. At that tune ether
had jus.t been discovered, and little wa’fe known
about it. Motidin claimed that he had discwered
that this new anesthetic could make people light as
air. To prove it, he caused the subject to rise mto
the air and boat apparently aospended. He passed
a hoop around the body to show there were oo
wires or supports.
Mp .and Mrs. J. T. Wilkins, went
to Buies Creek la.-;t Thursday.
Me-srs. H. V. Gaskill, Oscar
Bailey, Dick Broadwell, Andy
Creech, Edward Rains and Gibson
Fields w'ent to Charlotte Tuesday
to attend the boxing matches. They
saw Selma’s boxer, “Snake” Driver
win over three opponents Tuesday.
Snake- is .goin.g good at the tourna
ment. On Monday he knocked out
his man in the second round.
fXPLANATION:
There are many, many explanations for this old
trick. One is that the girl wearsa concealed harness,
which ends in a socket between her shoulder blades.
This is attached to a piston below the stage. The
piston is pushed up from below, causing her to
rise in the air. The piston is invisible, because it
is covered with mirrors which reflect surrounding
draperies, similar to the background. The magi
cian can pass the hoop over her body because it
is cut in one place. It can be pulled apart for a
second when it passes the piston.
It’s fun to be fooled
...it’s more fun to KNOW

Q.
Another “magic show” is cigarette adver
tising.
One of its greatest tricks is the illusion
that cigarettes can be made miraculously
"MUD" through manufacturing methods.
THI iXPiANATioN! All popular cigarettes
today are made in modern sanitary factories
with up-to-date machinery. All are heat
treated— some more intensively Uian others,
because raw, inferior tobaccos require
more intensive treatment than choice, ripe
tobaccos.
The real diflerence comes in the tobaccos
that are used. The better the .tobacco, the
milder it is.

It is a fact, well known by
leaf tobacco experts, that
Camels are made from finer, MORE
EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other
popular brand.
This is why Camels are so mild. This is why
Camels have .given more pleasure to more
people than any other cigarette e^er made.
Il’s the secret of Camels’ rich“bouquet”
...their cool flavor... their non-irritating
mildness.
All the natural, ripe goodness of Camel’s
tobacco is kept fresh for you by the famous
air-tight, welded Humidor Pack. Don’t
remove it.
