The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politeness

Don't
hold
your
parasol
so
close
to
your
face,
nor
so
low
down.
You
cannot
see
your
way
clear,
and
you
will
run
against
somebody.
Always
hold
an
umbrella
or
parasol
so
that
it
will
clear
your
bonnet,
and
leave
the
space
before
your
face
open,
that
you
may
see
your
way
clearly.
If
you
are
ever
caught
in
a
shower,
and
meet
a
gentleman
friend
who
offers
an
umbrella,
accept
it,
if
he
will
accompany
you
to
your
destination;
but
do
not
deprive
him
of
it,
if
he
is
not
able
to
join
you.
Should
he
insist,
return
it
to
his
house
or
store
the
instant
you
reach
home,
with
a
note
of
thanks.
If
a
stranger
offers
you
the
same
services,
decline
it
positively,
but
courteously,
at
the
same
time
thanking
him.
Never
stop
to
speak
to
a
gentleman
in
the
street.
If
you
have
anything
important
to
say
to
him,
allow
him
to
join
and
walk
with
you,
but
do
not
stop.
It
is
best
to
follow
the
same
rule
with
regard
to
ladies,
and
either
walk
with
them
or
invite
them
to
walk
with
you,
instead
of
stopping
to
talk.
A
lady
who
desires
to
pay
strict
regard
to
etiquette,
will
not
stop
to
gaze
in
at
the
shop
windows.
It
looks
countrified.
If
she
is
alone,
it
looks
as
if
she
were
waiting
for
some
one;
and
if
she
is
not
alone,
she
is
victimizing
some
one
else,
to
satisfy
her
curiosity.
Remember
that
in
meeting
your
gentlemen
friends
it
is
your
duty
to
speak
first,
therefore
do
not
cut
them
by
waiting
to
be
recognized.
Be
sure,
however,
that
they
see
you
before
you
bow,
or
you
place
yourself
in
the
awkward
position
of
having
your
bow
pass,
unreturned.
