How can the woman avoid marrying the king?

Advertisement
A king finds a woman he wants to marry but she refuses.
But since he is the king, she has to marry.
The king gives her a deal: He will write 'YES' and 'NO' on two pieces of paper.
The papers will be put into a hat and she will choose one.
If it says yes she will marry him, if it says no she will not.
The only problem is that the king cheats and
puts two pieces of paper that say yes into the hat,
but the woman is the only one who sees this.

She can pick one of the papers and get rid of it without reading (eat, tear off, throw away etc.).
Then get the other paper to find it has "YES" written on it.
