The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politeness

If
you
have
a
friend
staying
with
you,
invite
her
to
join
you
in
the
parlor
when
you
have
callers,
and
introduce
her
to
your
friends.
If
you
wish
to
invite
a
caller
to
stay
to
luncheon
or
dinner,
give
the
invitation
as
soon
as
you
have
exchanged
greetings,
not
after
she
has
been
seated
for
some
time.
In
the
latter
case
it
appears
like
an
after
thought,
not,
as
in
the
former,
as
if
from
a
real
desire
to
have
the
pleasure
of
her
company.
If
you
have
but
one
caller
at
a
time,
rise
when
she
does,
and
accompany
her
to
the
vestibule;
but,
if
there
are
several
in
the
room,
rise
when
each
one
does,
but
only
accompany
them
to
the
parlor
door;
there
take
leave
of
them,
and
return
to
those
who
still
remain
seated.
If,
after
affliction,
your
friends
call
before
you
are
able
to
see
them,
do
not
fear
to
give
offence
by
declining
to
receive
them.
They
will
respect
your
sorrow,
and
the
call
is
made
more
to
show
their
sympathy
than
from
a
desire
to
converse
with
you.
Visits
of
condolence,
paid
between
the
death
of
one
of
your
family
and
the
day
of
the
funeral,
you
may
always
excuse
yourself
from,
with
perfect
propriety.
They
are
made
in
kindness,
and
show
interest,
but
if
you
decline
seeing
such
callers,
there
is
no
offence
given.
In
parting
from
a
gentleman
caller,
rise
when
he
does,
and
remain
standing
until
he
leaves
the
room,
but
do
not
go
towards
the
door.
