Those little puzzles are one of the ways in which Masonic holy books and secret writings are encoded. A friend of mine found out his father had been quite a senior mason when he died and he inherited all his father's Masonic gear - he was quite amused by the idea this was meant to be a secure code that, for example, a woman wouldn't crack if she accidentally found the book.
