“Disappearing” acts are among the most popu
lar in the repertory of the magician. Dogs,
horses, girls, whole rooms disappear—whisked

by mirrors. But this “disappearance” is a bit
different.One of the-‘-*slaves”is 1 holtovi dummy.
When the magician holds up the sheet the lithe
little lady disappears completely—into the con
