The Postal Jleviexo , a monthly magazine
for postmasters and postal clerks, published
by the Postal Jleview Publishing Company,
Tunkhannock, has reached us. It is neatly
printed and contains much valuable informa
tion for employes of the post-office depart
ment. The first page is embelishcd with a
likeness of Postmaster-General JAMES. A
very good likeness of Postmaster BERRY of
Elmiru is also given. The magazine should
be liberally patronized by the class for whom
it is especially designed, and business men
will find in it much that interests them.
The difficulty about a secret is that it takes
so many men to keep it. If it lias been pour
.cd into your ear you wrestle with it for a
while, but it is too much for you. The man to
, whom you tell it wrestles with it, and it is
too much for him also. He tells it, and the
man to whom he tells it tells It to some one
else, always in the strictest confidence, until
at last it ceases to he a secret. Only one
•man in the world has oyer been strong enough
to keep a secret entirely to himself, and he
died long asro.
