Note 5 — NOVEL APPLICATIONS OF THE “BLACK ART” PRINCIPLE

Since the description which follows was written, it has come to my knowledge that there is already on sale a trick on somewhat similar lines in point of effect entitled The Educated Die. I need hardly say that my own trick, so far as I am concerned, is absolutely original. The advertised description of The Educated Die would suit either trick, but there is little further resemblance between them.
