TWO CHARADES.—(By a boy aged 8).
1. I am flexible, thinner than glass, round when standing still, and oval when shaken. I burst at a touch, or when I strike anything solid. In a dead calm I slowly sink, in a little wind I float, in a strong breeze I rise.
2. My outside is hard. My inside is soft, and good to eat. My middle is neither hard nor soft, and is not good to eat.
