'puzzle' is the definition.
(type of visual puzzle)

'concerning the raising of a subscription?' is the wordplay.
'concerning' becomes 're' (both can mean on a particular topic).
'the raising of a subscription?' becomes 'bus' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
're'+'bus'='REBUS'

Can you help me to learn more?
