He and his wife go to the office and engage the men to come and move their furniture to their new home. They return and make preparations and get their family ready and all go to a café to enjoy themselves while the work is being done. The men come and go through the house, placing the magnet on all movable stuff, and at the appointed time they turn on the electricity and everything in the place starts to move, and soon the house is entirely dismantled, and we see all the furniture filing out of the house and along the street like living objects. Arriving at the new address, each article finds its own place and in a short time the whole apartment is entirely settled and everything in its proper place without the aid of human hands. When the family returns to their new home they are astonished and happy to find the place ready tor occupancy, and when the man comes to collect the bill the head of the house is only too glad to settle with him, for all appreciate the great convenience of moving and getting settled in their new apartment without any worry or labor.
