Yeah, IronJaw's got the right idea. When Tolkien said "disappear" he referred to quickly going to ground and hiding, not magically cloaking themselves from vision, unless that Hobbit happened to posess a magic Ring. Hence how the ability "seemed magical" to men but was actually not. I don't think Hobbits literally disappearing completely would represent this well; running out of sight is a far better solution.
