The Handbook of Conundrums
by Edith B. Ordway
Publisher: George Sully and Company 1915

This book presents a grindstone whereon the reader may whet his wits. It is of sufficient hardness to resist the coarsest metal of broad-bladed humor, and of sufficient fineness of grain to edge the best steel of fancy.
