Should anyone try this hold on you, quietly bring your left hand on top of his wrist, and simply push his hand down, thus instantly freeing yourself.
If you wish to turn the tables on the humorist who is making you the subject of his experiments, place your hand on his wrist, and pull it gently back, pressing your chest against his elbow.
The signal of defeat in this instance cannot be given by the hands as they are both engaged. Stamp quickly on the floor with the foot twice and your opponent will instantly release you.


ANOTHER "COME-ALONG"
Instead of passing your upper arm beneath opponent's armpit, as in Figure 192, just pass your forearm, and grasp he clothing on his right chest with your left hand.
Press his arm down exactly as in Figure 192 and make him submit, or lead him captive by the pain in his upper arm.
This is not a very reliable method of taking prisoners and is simply given to increase your general experience in such matters.


TURNING THE TABLES ON A "HAND-SQUEEZER"
Some men persist in trying to grind your hand into a pulp to show off their strength.
When you meet such a gentleman, pull his hand straight out sideways. Step past his right foot with your right foot, so that your head passes beneath his armpit. (Let me warn you never to try this till you have practiced it with ten different opponents.)
Turn and look towards your left. Continue pulling his arm in the same direction, straight out from his side, so that you unbalance him in that direction. By this time you have passed completely under his arm.
Raise your left arm and bring your armpit over his upper arm. Do not twist his arm but pull the little finger side of his hand straight to your face.
With your upper arm, hold his arm tightly, and with the weight of the body, press his upper arm down until he gives the signal of defeat. Try it very slowly at first.


HOW TO MAKE A MAN LET GO
Your opponent is holding on to something and you cannot pull him off.
Place the ends of your thumbs behind the lobes of his ears and against his jawbone.
Press straight upward. Bring him onto his toes, and he will gladly accompany you.
Be careful at first to avoid injury, and experiment a little until you find the sensitive spot.


FINGER HOLD
With your right hand, take the fingers of opponent's left hand so that the backs of his fingers lie in your palm. Grasp them with your fingers and thumb.
Raise his hand straight up, till it is over your head, and bend his fingers back, at right angles to his hand.
This will bring him onto his toes and you can then march him around.


A SIMPLE BREAK FOR ABOVE HOLD
Fold your thumb over your palm until the tip of your thumb touches your little finger.
Lower your wrist and draw your elbows to your side. Bunch the tips of your fingers together and you will have no difficulty in withdrawing them with an upward movement from his grasp.


A SIMPLE WRIST-BREAK
Assailant pushes you with his right hand flat on your chest.
Bring the palm of your right hand onto the back of his left hand, and your left hand onto the back of your right. Hold his palm tightly against your chest.
Bend forward, and the pain in his wrist will bring him to his knees. Make him give the signal of defeat.
The only strength required is to keep his palm (especially that part close to his wrist, the heel of his hand) pressed tightly against your chest. He provides the motive power, as the harder he pushes, the worse for his wrist.
Do this very slowly at first, otherwise you may injure his wrist, or you may bring him down too hard on his knee.
The trick can only be done when a man is actually exerting strength against your chest. It is useless to try and pull his hand onto your chest, and if he tries to pull his hand away, you have no chance of getting it.
If, however, he is determined to shove you back by his greater strength, that is where you can turn his greater strength against him by getting his wrist in a trick. A chance to do this will seldom occur, but when it does, this trick will come handy.
It gives you further experience in using the opponent's strength against him, and each added experience makes you better able to apply the principle in all other tricks.


AN AMUSING NECK HOLD
Clench your left fist and place the sharp second knuckle-joint of the first finger in the middle of the large sterno-mastoid muscle on the side of opponent's neck.
With the right hand, clasp the little-finger side of your left hand in such a way that you do not interfere with your knuckle-joint pressing his neck.
Place the side of your face against his cheek, and with the strength of both arms, press the sharp knuckle into his neck.
There is a peculiarly sensitive spot here. Let your first experiment be gentle. Opponent gives signal of defeat by slapping his thigh.
Ladies might find this a useful means of persuading their husbands to present them with a new hat. It can be taken with the speed of lightning and once secured, opponent is helpless.
It is not recommended as a practical fighting trick, as it leaves you open to a kick just before it is secured.

Make a check mark against each trick each day you practice it.


KNEE SMASH ON NOSE
Assailant comes at you with his head down, as if to seize you around the legs.
Time his rush carefully. Place one or both hands on the back of his head. Bring it down violently on your knee, which you raise in the same moment.
Make your effort from the Stahara, thus getting all the force of your body into the blow. In practicing, stop the knee three inches from the Assailant's nose.


FRONT STRANGLE HOLD
The strangle hold usually taught is to pass your right arm under his neck with the palm downwards. (There is also a chin hold wherein you bring your wrist against opponent's chin. Clasp your right hand with your left. Twist his neck by lowering your right elbow and raising your right hand.)
Place your right hand on your left wrist and your left hand on his shoulder. If you are strong you will have no difficulty in making opponent quit by this hold; or even if you are not so strong and get it on by surprise.
If you are up against a man with a "bull-neck," however, your efforts will be in vain as his neck is stronger than your arms. Practice it a few times to augment your experience, then discard it for the jujitsu secret strangle.


SECRET FRONT STRANGLE HOLD
Place your right forearm under opponent's neck with the sharp wrist-bone against his windpipe. Keep your wrist straight.
Place the palm of your right hand on the back of tour left, with your fingers gripping your palm. Hold his neck tightly between your arms and your body (under your armpit).
In this position you can easily strangle him by tightening the pressure of your wrist on his windpipe. This hold is known only to a limited circle. It is not taught in any standard Japanese jujitsu book.
Hold his neck rigidly against your body. Bring your Stahara forward and upward, thus increasing the pressure of your wrist, until his neck is dislocated.
The strength of the weakest man's Stahara is stronger than the strongest man's neck and you can kill a man with this grip instantaneously.
This is a super-secret method of doing a secret trick. Do it slowly. You can practice this hold on one another with the utmost safety and with absolutely no fear of injuries or accidents. These secret jujitsu holds are like an immense steam hammer whose power can be so controlled that it will perform the most delicate operations. In matches where this has been used to defeat the opponent, I have never seen anyone suffer even momentary discomfort after the hold was released.
You will find it difficult at first to coordinate your arm strength and your Stahara strength. When you first use Stahara strength, your arms will relax, but practice until you get the proper coordination.
To obtain an opponent who will allow you to experiment on him, you must first practice according to the rules laid down in "How to Make an Opponent Quit" in Book One.


SECRET STRANGLE HOLD - continued
You can pull opponent into the strangle hold by placing one hand on the back of his neck and pulling him forward off balance.
