Riddles
Why is the sun like a hard-working carpenter?—Because lie is putting beams in all day. What is the difference belween Noah's Ark and Joan of Arc?—One is made of wood and the other is .Maid of Orleans. * * * * When is a person like the letter G?—When he is last in coming and first in going. Why did the tin whistle?—Because the tin can. Why did the tree bark?—Because it saw the letter-box. (Sent by Mavis Johnston.)
