Can you by your magic power restore a broken match to its original condition?

Use a large handkerchief with a wide hem. Insert a match all the way into the hem, so that it can't been seen. This is done beforehand and the handkerchief placed in your pocket.

Now after announcing what you can do, pull the handkerchief out, lay it on a table, and place the second match in the center. Then pick up the corner which has the match inserted in the hem, and start folding all four corners.

Pick up handkerchief, and when you have located the position of the match in the hem, let one of your guests feel it and break it in two.

Now shift the handkerchief in your hands a bit and utter some magic words such as "match, match, mend thyself." Then shake the handkerchief, and the whole match will fall on the table. The broken one will remain in the hem.

Materials: Handkerchief and two matches.
