Sydney Smith


SYDNEY SMITH was once dining in company with a French gentleman, who had

been before dinner indulging in a number of free-thinking speculations,

and had ended by avowing himself a materialist. Very good soup, this,

said Mr. Smith. Oui, monsieur, c'est excellente, was the reply.

Pray, sir, do you believe in a cook? inquired Mr. Smith.
