Changes In etquete are purcly vagarIes of
ta9hlolI only to bo adopted by thaI leisure
- . clan who regard the tying of n cravat or
shaking hands one of the serIous events In
fl.Doth
Doth men and womU hesitate al the foct
tr of stairs over the question as to which shall
go first-the woman or the mm. : This short
rule , If remembered , will govern the Inde-
, . ctsion-thiat In going down the steps the man
follows the woman j In going up , hc precedes
her.
t Never sass a woman on a stalrcl , 10 m1t-
, 7 tcr under what provocation . upeclaly If you
: ; have no acrlnalntanco with her. I a man Is
: coming toWn stairs hurriedly , all a Woman
, apprecIates ! the situation . she can quicken
, her Rhps or stand oslde. saying , "Do not let ,
me detain you. " tie should bow hh thanks
i
and .
. pass on
, : I very gentleman should remove his hal
when accompanYing a woman down the steps
I they ( arc strangers , and meet on the stairway -
; way she advancing , he should stand : to one
; , side , and remain with head Incovel'ed until
, she Is I a ttell above him , then resume his
. way Should he be a few steps from top or
bottom , lie must go back to the landing , allowing -
p ' lowing htr to pass him
. . ThIs Is the etiquette of the stairs. I may
' - . round trivial to enumerate these rules to a
man or the world but It Is a Hale estimate
. that ix ! out of every ten forget to observe
them when in tie rush of business offices ,
- hotels . or even boarding houses.
. Next to the question of the ' stairway comes
: the problem of the door . When women are
f pasolng out cf a room the men should give I
. k them precedence at the door. I a mal las I
. . folowlll a woman down the stairs , he allows I
. : her to pass Into the room first . 8 he stands I
I Lt the side of the doarway . not behind hor.
I the door Is closed ( le can step before her
and open It. I h erroneously thought that U
the door cpenu Into the room the man should
. pas In , wIth the handle In hand ( , and stand
t theO as she enter.s Not so. Tie door can
: be thrown open and hell back with ls ! open
t hand from tIle side on whlcl 11 should stand
Therefore , thl manner In which a deer opens
Ooes nol alter hIs attitude.
The two riles already outIned should stand
for a man'c courtcy In In elevator
. . A woman precedes him both when entering
. ; anti leavIng the lIft. Men arc not very care-
- , ful In lifting tieII hats when femln'no occu-
' ; - pants share the elevator. .I Is tronbesome : , "
they argue , but It Is , a breach of Ilolteness to
: do otherwise.
: No mater In how great a hurry a man Is
to catch . a street car. he must stand asIde If
a woman desires to get 01. I Is unneces-
. - lary to lilt his lat as she dots so , for the
acton would materially lessen his ability to
jump on the car.
I he las acquaIntance wIth her she should
bo assisted by him , and II Is affirmed that
the pole thing for a man In any case Is to
respectfully helll a woman In a position like
this , especially If , as usual ] , 1\:1 hands are
' , filled with bundles. No sensIble woman
would take Offense at the If it
j . olenso courtesy \ I was
rightfully executed.
; Offering I scat to a woman In a car Is so
, many sided a problem there Is lto sats-
; - faction In dIcusslng the question. .
That a man should lIft his hat when he
' - ? . 110es rIse to offer his seat Is a rule that holds
c 10 amendment. The lady's escort , If she
1 has one . lifts his hat also In acknowlE g :
. mtnt of the courtesy. In alighting from a
street car the rule of precedence Is reversed
the man stepping down first , that he may be
of nsslstance. This action holds good In
. every case , whether tendered from strange
. , or friend. .
t When greeting a woman on the street do not
' merely tip your lint . er , as many do. barely
I . touch Its brim with your fngers : Raise tie
: , . covering entirely from the head , leaving I
bare as she passes.
' I Is a bit hard to determIne whether
man' or woman should bow first . I Is very
- much 1 question of the degree of Intimacy .
In [ the cue of n slight acquaintance a woman
, should be allowed the choice of recognition .
recogniion.
. Of course I depends very much on .catchlng.
4 the eye , for n woman dislikes by look or
action to notice a man acquaintance who may
; . , have forgotten tie IntroLillctlon .
In southern countries It Is the
souther I vogue to
stand with hat In land while conversing on
the street with O friend of the OI > Oslo ! sex ;
climatic conditIons ' do not favor that custom
a , In al latitudes. In lieu of this the gentler -
gnte-
r man Its hla hat both on addressing and
' , leaving 11cr. The best procedure under
, such circumstances Is to wall with the
svomn ' untIl the conversatIon Is ended.
Xhl relieves her from any conspIcuousness
' I
When escorting a woman to the theater ;
always go 111 and down the aisle before her.
* A This rule Is founded on common sense , for
f ? you make clear the path When the cou-
pans are identIfied stand asldo and let her
pas In first. Always rise when a woman la
' passing In front of yon to a "eat. It Is no
k - mark tbon. of deference , but makes less obstrc- I
.
. .L " A man should offer his arm to a lady otter
afer
nightfahi . The custom Is not as general as
, , formerly but It lends too much support and
? comfort to women to ever Cal Into disfavor.
' In assisting tier over a crossing or thr ugh
p I crowded thoroughfare , hIs hand placed
under her elbow Is more efficacious. To an

' courtesy at any hour of the day , as she will
, . probably need the support. wi
