EXPECT when you see this
strange-looking picture in Die-
gram A you will wonder whatever
it is.p It certainly does look rather.
startling. doesn’t it?
You will soon solve the mystery
with a piece of paper and a pair of
scissors.
Take an oblong sheet or paper and
told it over one. Now mark dotted
lines on it. Just as you see them
marked on the diagram. With a pair
of scissors out along the dotted
lines. spread the paper out—and see
what you have made.

obtained; the glue for fastening the

carriage—stick them together... The
body of the tender (Sketch 4) is made
by sticking two little drawers back
to back, but one end of the upper box
must be taken oil. The “boiler" of
the engine is made by gluing a piece
of stout notepaper to a drawer
turned upside down. On Sketch 5
you will see how the paper is to be
bent round. 0n the same sketch the

BAD NIGHT ANIMAL s
But in my dreams my animals,
They were no longer small.
But they were big and fearsome
things
And very thin and tall.
They made me feel a ple. too;
They stepped so heavilyz
And oh! how they did grunt and '
snort,
And even snap at me!
I tell you I was glad when I
Woke up and found that they
Were just my tiny, wooden toys,

around it with pencil. Cut out these
wheels with a small pair of scissors.
Now look at Sketch 2 and you will
see how you are to glue 9. little strip
of cardboard under the drawer (right
down the middle, as shown). The
pins, which will be fixed through the
exact middle of each wheel. must
then be pushed through the sides of
the drawer and into the middle piece
of cardboard (clearly shown in
Sketch 2). A tiny mite of cardboard
must be placed on each pin (as
shown in Sketch 3) to keep the
wheels from touching the wooden
boxes. The driving wheels of the
engine should be the size of a quar-
ter.
A Hole in Your Hand!
Would you like to see a big hole.
an inch in diameter, through your
hand? This apparently impossible
thing can be done by the following
means:
'Roll up a sheet of paper into a
tube about an inch in diameter. Press
one end against your left eye,and
look through it toward the sky. keep-
ing the other eye open as well.
Now put out your right hand and
bring it slowly 'toward the hand
holding the paper tube. When it
reaches a certain position your right
hand will look just as if it has a. big
round hole in the middle of the
, palm!
Now lower your right hand and
stare fixedly through the tube, still
keeping the other eye open. After a
while the circle of light that shines
through the other end of the tube
will look as if it is in the air outside
the tube. In fact, it will give you
the strange impression of the end of
the tube being outside!

And I want a piece, please.”
