Never
take
any
one
who
calls
upon
you
into
any
room
but
the
parlor,
unless
invited
to
do
so
by
your
hostess.
You
have,
of
course,
the
entree
of
other
rooms,
but
you
have
no
right
to
extend
this
privilege
to
others.
If
you
have
many
gentlemen
visiters,
check
too
frequent
calls,
and
make
no
appointments
with
them.
If
they
show
you
any
such
attention
as
to
offer
to
drive
you
to
places
of
interest,
or
visit
with
you
picture
galleries
or
public
places,
always
consult
your
hostess
before
accepting
such
civilities,
and
decline
them
if
she
has
made
other
engagements
for
you.
If
you
receive
an
invitation
to
visit
any
place
of
public
amusement,
decline
it,
unless
one
of
the
family
with
whom
you
are
staying
is
also
invited.
In
that
case
you
may
accept.
If
the
gentleman
who
invites
you
is
a
stranger
to
the
family,
introduce
him
to
your
hostess,
or
mention
her
name
in
conversation.
He
will
then,
if
he
really
desires
you
to
accept
his
proffered
attention,
include
her
in
the
invitation.
When
visiting
in
a
family
where
the
members
are
in
mourning,
decline
all
invitations
to
parties
or
places
of
public
amusement.
It
is
an
insult
to
them
to
leave
them
to
join
in
pleasure
from
which
their
recent
affliction
excludes
them.
Your
visit
at
such
a
time
will
be
prompted
by
sympathy
in
their
trouble,
and
for
the
time
it
is
thoughtful
and
delicate
to
make
their
sorrows
yours.
If
sudden
sickness
or
family
trouble
come
to
your
friend
whilst
you
are
with
her,
unless
you
can
really
be
useful,
shorten
your
visit.
In
time
of
trouble
families
generally
like
to
be
alone,
all
in
all
to
each
other;
and
a
visitor
is
felt
a
constant
restraint.
