ANXIOUS INQUIRER:--If you want to remove inkstains place the stain
over steam and apply salt and lemon juice. If it was Dan who sent
this question in I'd advise him to stop wiping his pen on his
shirt sleeves and then he wouldn't have so many stains.
FELICITY KING.
ETIQUETTE DEPARTMENT
F-l-x:--Yes, you should offer your arm to a lady when seeing her
home, but don't keep her standing too long at the gate while you
say good night.
(FELIX, ENRAGED:--"I never asked such a question.")
C-c-l-y:--No, it is not polite to use "Holy Moses" or "dodgasted"
in ordinary conversation.
(Cecily had gone down cellar to replenish the apple plate, so this
passed without protest.)
S-r-a:--No, it isn't polite to cry all the time. As to whether
you should ask a young man in, it all depends on whether he went
home with you of his own accord or was sent by some elderly
relative.
F-l-t-y:--It does not break any rule of etiquette if you keep a
button off your best young man's coat for a keepsake. But don't
take more than one or his mother might miss them.
DAN KING.
FASHION NOTES
Knitted mufflers are much more stylish than crocheted ones this
winter.
