    Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 18:4.

    That man is to be pitied who cannot enjoy social intercourse without eating and drinking. The lowest orders, it is true, cannot imagine a cheerful assembly without the attractions of the table, and this reflection alone should induce all who aim at intellectual culture to endeavor to avoid placing the choicest phases of social life on such a basis.
