This is from The Sphinx (Vol 49, 1950). The trick is "The Mummy" by Zerr, The Mind Mystic:
[this trick] may be used with a girl from the audience. ... A girl is put into a sack and tied to a post with ropes at the ankles, just above the knees, around her waist and around her neck.
Of course, the biggest trick is developing the social blindspot that allows you to believe this is a reasonable thing to do with a volunteer from the audience.
It may depend on the audience and venue also...
