Do
not
make
any
display
of
affection
for
even
your
dearest
friend;
kissing
in
public,
or
embracing,
are
in
bad
taste.
Walking
with
arms
encircling
waists,
or
such
demonstrative
tokens
of
love,
are
marks
of
low
breeding.
Avoid
crossing
the
room
alone,
and
never
run,
even
if
you
feel
embarrassed,
and
wish
to
cross
quickly.
If
you
are
a
musician,
and
certain
that
you
will
confer
pleasure
by
a
display
of
your
talents,
do
not
make
a
show
of
reluctance
when
invited
to
play
or
sing.
Comply
gracefully,
and
after
one
piece,
leave
the
instrument.
Be
careful
to
avoid
the
appearance
of
wishing
to
be
invited,
and,
above
all,
never
hint
that
this
would
be
agreeable.
If
your
hostess
has
requested
you
to
bring
your
notes,
and
you
are
dependent
upon
them,
bring
them,
and
quietly
place
them
on
the
music
stand,
or,
still
better,
send
them
in
the
afternoon.
It
is
a
better
plan,
if
you
are
called
upon
frequently
to
contribute
in
this
way
to
the
evening's
amusement,
to
learn
a
few
pieces
so
as
to
play
them
perfectly
well
without
notes.
Never
attempt
any
piece
before
company,
unless
you
are
certain
that
you
can
play
it
without
mistake
or
hesitation.
When
you
have
finished
your
song
or
piece,
rise
instantly
from
the
piano
stool,
as
your
hostess
may
wish
to
invite
another
guest
to
take
the
place.
If
you
have
a
reason
for
declining
to
play,
do
so
decidedly
when
first
invited,
and
do
not
change
your
decision.
