In each of the following sentences there are three hiding animals: “It must be,” averred Caleb, earnestly, as he gazed at the new easel. Wampum, a kind of money, used by the Indians, was made ere Cabot terrified them by his presence.

This key his master serves, to ride, to work, to wait; This one, spring-hatched, at Christmas meets his fate. --_Caroline L_---- Transcriber’s Notes: A number of typographical errors have been corrected silently.
