PARLOR-CAR. Her escort should attend to all
details of traveling. If she is traveling
alone, she should always ride in the parlor-car
and have the porter attend to her wants.
While it may be proper to accept in a parlor-car
attentions from a man if he is accompanied
by a woman, the greatest caution is
required if he is alone; in fact, it is well to be
on one's guard, when traveling alone, against
the attentions of both men and women.
TREASURY, SECRETARY OF--HOW ADDRESSED. An official
letter begins: Sir, and ends: I have, Sir, the
honor to remain your most obedient servant
A social letter begins: My Dear MR. Wilson,
and ends: I have the honor to remain
most sincerely yours.
The address on the envelope is: Hon. John
J. Wilson, Secretary Of Treasury.
TROUSSEAU, WEDDING. The bride exhibits the trousseau
at a dinner given to the bridesmaids and
maid of honor a few days before the wedding.
TURNING DOWN CORNER OF VISITING-CARDS. This
should not be done.
TUXEDO. The Tuxedo coat and waistcoat are worn
at all informal affairs when no women are
present, such as small theatre parties (when
not occupying a box), bowling and card
parties, restaurants, and the like.
It may be worn on the street in the
evening with a low hat. A black tie should
always be worn, and never, under any
circumstances, a white one.
See also EVENING DRESS--MEN.
UMBRELLAS.
MEN CALLING ON WOMEN. When making a
formal or brief call, the umbrella should be
left in the hall.
CARRYING. Umbrellas should be carried
vertically, never horizontally, thereby endangering
other persons' eyes. Especially is this
important when entering cars or going up long
flights of steps--as, at an elevated railroad
station.
USHERS. A sufficient number of ushers should be
provided for to allow of two for each aisle.
A good plan is to have one selected as the
master of ceremonies, and for him to go to
the church on the wedding-day in ample
time to personally see that all the details
have been carried out. They should be
present at all rehearsals.
The ushers are usually presented by the
groom with some small trinket, such as a
pin, as a souvenir of the occasion.
CALLS. The ushers should call upon the married
couple as soon as the latter have returned
from their wedding trip.
