[The Golden Road by Lucy Maud Montgomery]@TWC D-Link bookThe Golden Road CHAPTER V 21/23
I am not going to publish it though, because I don't want other people to find it out. 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. It is nice to have one the same colour as your cap. Red mittens with a black diamond pattern on the back are much run after. Em Frewen's grandma knits hers for her.
She can knit the double diamond pattern and Em puts on such airs about it, but I think the single diamond is in better taste. The new winter hats at Markdale are very pretty.
