Excerpt from Secular Thought, Vol. 31: A Fortnightly Journal of Rational Criticism in Politics, Science and Religion, January 14, 1905We remember once an unwished-for birth occurring at a Methodist Sunday-school picnic, in which case a lady's under-garment served for temporary swaddling clothes, and not long ago a similar event occurred in a railway carriage, when the resources of the lady passengers were similarly taxed. Here there was room for a sign, if you like but plain common swaddling clothes Where was the halo all this time - the halo that all the painters see round the heads of parents and child? That must have been a photographic effect, which took about fifteen centuries to be developed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
