Puzzles

This puzzle appeared in the April, 1884

issue of

St. Nicholas

magazine.Each of the

small objects (numbered from one to

fourteen) may be described by a word of

four letters. When these are rightly

guessed, and arranged one below

another, as the plan of the corkscrew

shows, the letters forming the corkscrew

(represented by the heavy dots) will spell

what we all expect in April.

Charleston

Gazette
