1t is sometimes objected to books
upon etiquette that they cause those
who consult them to act with mechan
ical restraint, and to show in society
that they arc governed by arbitrary
rules, rather than by an intuitive per-
ception Of what Is graceful and polite
This objection is uIis6und, because it
supposes tintt people who study The
theory OF etiquette do not also exercise
tlcn powers Of observation in society,
and obtain, by their Intercourse with
Others, that freedom and case of deport-
pent which society alone can impart.
Books upon etiquette are useful, mas
much as that they expound the laws Of
polite society. Experience alone, how
ever, can give effect to the precise man
aer in which those laws are required to
be observed
I Whatever objections may be raised
to the teachings of works upon eti-
quette, there can be no sound argument
against a series Of simple and lrief
hints, S..ich shall operate as precautions
agnnst mistakes in personal conduct.
Avoid iIhermedding with the affairs
OF othtr This is a most common
fauI, 4 number Of persons seldom
meet but they begin discussing the af-
fairs Of some one absent. This is not
only unchaitable, but positively unjust
