Never
go
into
the
supper-room
with
the
same
gentleman
twice.
You
may
go
more
than
once,
if
you
wish
for
an
ice
or
glass
of
water,
(surely
no
lady
wants
two
or
three
suppers,)
but
do
not
tax
the
same
gentleman
more
than
once,
even
if
he
invites
you
after
each
dance.
No
lady
of
taste
will
carry
on
a
flirtation
in
a
ball
room,
so
as
to
attract
remark.
Be
careful,
unless
you
wish
your
name
coupled
with
his,
how
you
dance
too
often
with
the
same
gentleman.
If
you
are
so
unfortunate
as,
forgetting
a
prior
engagement,
to
engage
yourself
to
two
gentlemen
for
the
same
dance,
decline
dancing
it
altogether,
or
you
will
surely
offend
one
of
them.
Never
press
forward
to
take
the
lead
in
a
quadrille,
and
if
others,
not
understanding
the
figures,
make
confusion,
try
to
get
through
without
remark.
It
is
useless
to
attempt
to
teach
them,
as
the
music,
and
other
sets,
will
finish
the
figure
long
before
you
can
teach
and
dance
it.
Keep
your
temper,
refrain
from
all
remark,
and
endeavor
to
make
your
partner
forget,
in
your
cheerful
conversation,
the
annoyances
of
the
dance.
There
is
much
that
is
exhilarating
in
the
atmosphere
of
a
ball
room.
The
light,
music,
company,
and
even
dancing
itself,
are
all
conducive
to
high
spirits;
be
careful
that
this
flow
of
spirits
does
not
lead
you
into
hoydenism
and
rudeness.
Guard
your
actions
and
your
tongue,
that
you
may
leave
the
room
as
quietly
and
gracefully
as
you
enter
it.
