3. DOUBLING A CIGARETTE
Effect. A cigarette is shown and a second one is pulled out of it. The operation is repeated several times.
Method. Again you require two cigarettes. Palm one in the right hand, calling this one A; show the other, B, in the left hand. Take B in the right hand between the thumb and first finger and show the left hand empty. Again place B in the left hand and hold it with the thumb above it and the middle finger below it, so that the cigarette is in a horizontal position pointing to the right.
Bring the right hand over and place A in front of and parallel to B, gripping its outer end between the tips of the left thumb and first finger. Release A from the right fingers and hold both with the left thumb and fingers (Fig. 17).
Slide the right fingers back along the two cigarettes; grip the end of B, releasing it from the left hand, and draw it away to the right. Show it and pretend to put it in your coat pocket, really taking it in the finger palm again. The procedure can be repeated ad libitum.
