A CARD TRICK.
Get an ordinary pack of playing cards, and, parting them, ask a friend to draw the top card of lower pack. The person who draws the card remembers it. When replaced, it must be in same place as before, then sort through pack and show the card drawn out.
The trick: When parting cards, note the card which will be on top of drawn card. When going through pack, look for your card. You will know that the card on too was drawn out.
