The foreign workman lifts his cap and respectfully salutes his fellow-workman in passing.

There is no sacrifice of manliness in this, but grace and dignity.

Even the lowest poverty of the foreign workpeople is not misery, simply because it is cheerful.

Though not receiving one-half the income which our working-classes do, they do not sink into wretchedness and drown their troubles in drink; but contrive to make the best of life, and to enjoy it even amidst poverty.
Good taste is a true economist.

It may be practised on small means, and sweeten the lot of labour as well as of ease.
