A collection of performances and skits from a famous-at-the-time promoter and writer. (His other books are on ventriloquism and there's an autobiography Random Recollections.) Topics include thought reading, juggling, hypnotism, a "funnygraph" and performing fleas. It's pretty much all faked - the juggling is done with wires though honestly it almost sounds easier to just learn to juggle. There's a poem in supposedly comic pseudo-French and a retelling of Hamlet where the prince becomes a grocer.
