You
are
not
expected
to
recognize
any
friend
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
street.
Even
if
you
see
them,
do
not
bow.
Avoid
"cutting"
any
one.
It
is
a
small
way
of
showing
spite,
and
lowers
you
more
than
your
enemy.
If
you
wish
to
avoid
any
further
intercourse
bow,
coldly
and
gravely,
but
do
not
look
at
any
one,
to
whom
you
are
in
the
habit
of
bowing,
and
pass
without
bowing.
If
you
do
this,
they
may
flatter
themselves
that
they
were
really
unrecognized,
but
a
distant,
cold
bow
will
show
them
that
you
speak
from
civility
only,
not
from
friendship.
In
the
street
a
lady
takes
the
arm
of
a
relative,
her
affianced
lover,
or
husband,
but
of
no
other
gentleman,
unless
the
streets
are
slippery,
or
in
the
evening.
When
a
lady
walks
with
two
gentlemen,
she
should
endeavor
to
divide
her
attention
and
remarks
equally
between
them.
If
you
do
stop
in
the
street,
draw
near
the
walls,
that
you
may
not
keep
others
from
passing.
Loud
talking
and
laughing
in
the
street
are
excessively
vulgar.
Not
only
this,
but
they
expose
a
lady
to
the
most
severe
misconstruction.
Let
your
conduct
be
modest
and
quiet.
If
a
gentleman,
although
a
stranger,
offers
his
hand
to
assist
you
in
leaving
a
carriage,
omnibus,
or
to
aid
you
in
crossing
where
it
is
wet
or
muddy,
accept
his
civility,
thank
him,
bow
and
pass
on.
If
you
wish
to
take
an
omnibus
or
car,
see
that
it
is
not
already
full.
If
it
is,
do
not
get
in.
You
will
annoy
others,
and
be
uncomfortable
yourself.
