When calling upon a young woman whose
hostess is not known by the man, he should
send his card to her.
At the beginning of a season, a man should
leave two cards for all those whose entertainments
he is in the habit of attending, or on
whom he pays social calls. These cards
may also be mailed. If left in person, there
should be one for each member of the family
called upon, or only two cards. In the
former there should be left one card for the
host, one for the hostess, one for the
"misses," and one for the rest of the family
and their guest.
Men of leisure should leave their own
cards, while business men can have them
left by the women of the family.
The corner of the card should not be
turned down.
Cards are now left in the hall by the servant
and the caller is announced. In business
calls the card is taken to the person for
whom the caller asked.
When calling, a man should leave a card
whether the hostess is at home or not.
