Elbows Are Never Put On The Table

To Make A Pleasant And Friendly Impression Is Not Alone Good Manners, But Equally Good Business.

Never Do Anything That Is Unpleasant To Others.

Etiquette Requires The Presumption Of Good Until The Contrary Is Proved.

People Who Picnic Along The Public Highway Leaving A Clutter Of Greasy Paper And Swill (not A Pretty Name, But Neither Is It A Pretty Object!) For Other People To Walk Or Drive Past, And To Make A Breeding Place For Flies, And Furnish Nourishment For Rats, Choose A Disgusting Way To Repay The Land-owner For The Liberty They Took In Temporarily Occupying His Property.

The Joy Of Joys Is The Person Of Light But Unmalicious Humor. If You Know Any One Who Is Gay, Beguiling And Amusing, You Will, If You Are Wise, Do Everything You Can To Make Him Prefer Your House And Your Table To Any Other; For Where He Is, The Successful Party Is Also.
