Help for the stumped (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hint

'help for the stumped' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hint that I've seen before include "signal" , "Intimate" , "Helpful suggestion" , "'Slight indication, indirect suggestion (4)'" , "CRT screen coating" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
