Excerpt from Correct Manners: A Complete Handbook of Etiquette
Good manners ought more to be desired than riches, and perfect manners more than all the power and glory of kings. Many books have been published on etiquette, but in presenting to the public this little volume we feel that there may be found gathered together within these pages such information, regarding manners and the laws and usages of polite society, as may be desired by those who wish to appear well. This book has been carefully compiled and arranged so the entire ground is covered, and the publishers feel in presenting it that they have a work as complete and desirable as anything that can be found. Read, study and ponder these pages, and remember that one of the passports to good society is good manners, and without them a man or woman has little to expect.
