　　I wonder if it's because I haven't been able to be outdoors for so long that I've grown so 　　1　　 about everything to do with nature．I can well remember that there was a time 　　2　　 a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers 　　3　　 never have kept me spellbound．That's 　　4　　 since I was here．

　　For example, one evening when it was so warm, I 　　5　　 awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon 　　6　　 myself．But as the moon 　　7　　 far too much light, I didn't 　　8　　 open a window．Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs 　　9　　 dusk when the window was open．I didn't go downstairs until the window had to be shut．The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me 　　10　　 in their power, it was the first time in a year and a half that I'd seen the night face to face…

　　Open a large handkerchief out and show both sides of it to your friends．Point out that there is nothing in it; then show them both sides of your hands, which are also empty．Now ask a member of your audience to give you a match．Ask him to put a mark on it with a pen or a pencil．Fold up the handkerchief with the match in it, and let everyone present see you do this．

　　Give the handkerchief to anyone in the audience and say：“Here's the match．Can you feel it? Good! Now I want you to break it into two pieces．”When he or she has broken the match, you say “Would anyone like to feel the broken match in this handkerchief?” several people will probably want to feel it．When they have satisfied themselves that the match really is broken, you say, “Now I'm going to make the match whole again．”Perhaps your friends will say that that is impossible．

　　Hold the handkerchief in one hand and pass your hand or your wand(magic stick)over it, saying：“Abracadabra, abracadabra．”Open the handkerchief and let the match fall on to the table or floor, saying “Presto” as it does so．When the audience examine the match, they will find that it is quite whole and undamaged．The member of the audience will see his mark on the match．Everyone will be amazed!

　　The secret of this trick is quite simple, as in all magic tricks．Long before you do the trick you must do one thing－you must push one of your own matches into the hem(摺边)of the handkerchief．This must he pushed well along the hem so that it cannot fall out or be seen．When you have wrapped up the match provided by a member of the audience you must take care that it is the match in the hem which is broken, and not the other．You should practice the trick in private, of course, before you perform it before an audience．
