Excerpt from The Etiquette and Service of the TableFor every age and for every condition, good manners pro vide helpful equipment. To the young man or the young woman, a knowledge of correct usage gives self - possession and charm. True courtesy is exhibited in simple, natural, sincere manners. Conventional rules are not arbitrary, they have grown up little by little during hundreds of years, just as the common law of our courts has grown.

Their underlying principle is consideration for others.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
