A haggage-man had a box on his truck that had a label on it. The box was so heavy that he) pasted a new label over the old one, as shown in the drawing. By a peculiar co-incidence, the 14 letters composing the sentence IT CAN WHEEL HARD" were exactly the same letters that by appeared on the original label. If you re-arrange those letters you will form a sentence of three words that will spell the old label.
