Etiquette Of the Sofa.

The etiquette Of the sofa" in Ger
many is, indeed, the profound mystery
to English people that our Berlin cor
respondent declared 1t to be. We offer
the easiest chair nearest the fireplace
to the guest of honor, but in Germany
the sofa is invested with a sanctity
as of throne. The visitor must not
sit upon ii unless especially invited to
DO 80 by the hostess.
To take a seat there unasked is an
outrageous presumption. Strictly &C
cording to the rank, wealth and status
OF her guests does the hausfrau offer
them seats of honor, the won" before
the untitled, and SO on to the married
lady before the spinster. II Is as deli
cate matter as the Englishwoman' .
pairing of her guests for the dinner
table london Chronicle.
