When he enie'recl -the room he -spread a white cloth upon the, floor and sat. down upon it with .his, back to the wall', the dour of the room being on the right band.

The servants stood in groups,tlte largest group being between the door and the conjuror, As soon as he had settled himself he turned to the Parse, • and asked for the loan of a rupee.. The pod- dlar at first demurred a. little, but on being guaranteed Against loss heproduc- ed the coin. He was going to put it into the conjuror's hand, but the latter cefused,and told the Parsee to hand it to ip. Smyth's bearer. The bearer took it, and, at the request of the conjuror, looked -it -lit and-deelared it to be a rupee. The 'Conjuror told him to hand it to his mote-. Mr. Smyth took it,and then followed this dialogue: Oenjuror Are yotl-`aure that,,'is a rupee'? . Srnyt11--Yes. 'Conjuror---Now-elose •"your hand' and hold it tight.
