SOLUTION TO THE PREFACE.
The enigma is of such ancient and respectable origin, that I shall ask
no one to excuse me for offering this book to the public. Enigmatical
questions are frequent in the Scriptures, and in olden times often
contained a great deal of valuable information.
I intend, my dear young friends, to combine instruction with amusement;
and do not fear but what my expectations will be sufficiently realized.
Right well, I know, little lads and lasses, you can not fail to be
delighted when I am making such efforts in your behalf; so, heartily
shaking you all by the hand,
I remain,
Yours truly,
SANTA CLAUS

4. Beware of small expenses, a little leak will sink a ship.
5. Isaiah Bebee, you are too cross, and your ideas are too empty to
amuse any one; you are too epicurean to exercise your energies; nothing
excuses, nothing extenuates your excesses, for you ought to be wiser.
6. Opium and beer, effeminacy and tears, are usually enemies to energy,
and ought to be especially odious to you, dear Ellen.

15. In every land and clime I may be found.
In air, in water, also under ground;
Of various sorts I am, and various hues,
Of various kinds of brown, and various blues;
I’m sometimes black or gray, and sometimes red:
You’ll surely find me out from what I’ve said.
One other hint to aid you in your guess:
Without me beauty’s self were valueless. (The eye.)

You then will nothing leave on either side?

To set my dislocations--that’s a fact.

Ne’er entered in the ample book
Of fortune or of fame.

Cries Sylvia to a reverend dean,
What reason can be given,
Since marriage is a holy thing,
That there is none in heaven?

Women there are, but I’m afraid
They cannot find a priest.

you _say_? Has not uncle forbid us to _ride_ them?” But Master _T._ did
not _attend_ to what his brother said. He took _one_ of the _horses_ and
