INTRODUCTION
There are good things which we want to share with the world and
good things which we want to keep to ourselves. The secret of our

all but a few intimates; the secret, to take a contrary case, of
our infallible remedy for seasickness is thrust upon every
traveller we meet, even if he be no more than a casual
acquaintance about to cross the Serpentine.
