The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politeness

Never
use
an
eye-glass,
either
to
look
at
the
persons
around
you
or
the
articles
upon
the
table.
Eat
your
soup
quietly.
To
make
any
noise
in
eating
it,
is
simply
disgusting.
Do
not
break
bread
into
your
soup.
Break
off
small
pieces
and
put
into
your
mouth,
if
you
will,
but
neither
bite
it
from
the
roll
nor
break
it
up,
and
eat
it
from
your
soup-plate
with
a
spoon.
In
eating
bread
with
meat,
never
dip
it
into
the
gravy
on
your
plate,
and
then
bite
the
end
off.
If
you
wish
to
eat
it
with
gravy,
break
off
a
small
piece,
put
it
upon
your
plate,
and
then,
with
a
fork,
convey
it
to
your
mouth.
When
helped
to
fish,
remove,
with
knife
and
fork,
all
the
bones,
then
lay
down
the
knife,
and,
with
a
piece
of
bread
in
your
left
hand
and
a
fork
in
your
right,
eat
the
flakes
of
fish.
Need
I
say
that
the
knife
is
to
cut
your
food
with,
and
must
never
be
used
while
eating?
To
put
it
in
your
mouth
is
a
distinctive
mark
of
low-breeding.
If
you
have
selected
what
you
will
eat,
keep
the
plate
that
is
placed
before
you;
never
pass
it
to
the
persons
next
you,
as
they
may
have
an
entirely
different
choice
of
meat
or
vegetables.
Never
attempt
to
touch
any
dish
that
is
upon
the
table,
but
out
of
your
reach,
by
stretching
out
your
arms,
leaning
forward,
or,
still
worse,
standing
up.
Ask
the
waiter
to
hand
it,
if
you
wish
for
it;
or,
if
the
gentleman
beside
you
can
easily
do
so,
you
may
ask
him
to
pass
it
to
you.
