I do like the idea of offering a friend an old coat to wear if you should allow him to smoke in your house.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700962128477055849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163330007385367610.post-72929353869563478222013-02-14T06:56:07.207-05:002013-02-14T06:56:07.207-05:00Very neat!

I've always felt this way about "The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, Fashion and Manual of Politeness" and in particular, the section on letter writing. I love how the art of letter-writing is described: to wit, "long enough to interest...not to tire;... condensed to keep the attention, and not tedious...detailed enough to afford satisfaction; ...correct in grammatical construction, properly punctuated...in a clear, legible hand, with...all in the proper place; ...no words...in utter defiance to spelling-book rules; in short, a well-written letter."<br /><br />I think to myself, "Oh, is that all?"Troutwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02239636775731263656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7163330007385367610.post-86030328518958099262010-03-21T18:51:37.047-04:002010-03-21T18:51:37.047-04:00:D yes, that might be a little creepy.
