company of Oriental magicians direct
from India, Is making its first Amer
ican tour. .
Avdalas does not confine himself
to the simple card tricks and sleight-of-hand
performances usually pre
sented by socalled magicians. His
acts are genuine Hindoo Illusions, baf
fling the most skeptical and enter
taining tho most learned. -
When you witness "The Human
Sacrlflco" and "Hrtdjt "and the Sword.
Box' and other elaborate mysticisms
presented by this remarkable artist,
you will gasp with -wonderment and
you will be left with something to
think about long after this clever man
has left you. .
