The Cleaveland Leader says a genius
has invented plan to prevent exposure
of writing on postal cards. He propo-
ses to write on paper and transfer the
impression to the card, keeping the ORR
nal. The copy s then reserved and may
be easily read by holding il before mir
rOr, which restores the manuscript The
idea is that postal carriers and dOmestics
will not take this trouble. and the wri-
ting will escape ordinary scrutiny. Any
one can read il in the same way, howsv.
er. if their curiosity is superior 10 their
