Isn't it well for a person to practice good manners in the home, when there are no visitors? A. Yes.

Is it good form to have “Miss” before one's name on a calling by | card? A. It is not only correct to use the title, Miss, on a visiting card by an unmarried woman, but the omission of the title is a social error. Q. Is it proper to tip a soup plate when neearly empty? A.
