Chapter CXXXVII

If anything is sent you from the host or hostess, do not offer it to any other person; and when helped do not wait until others are served, but at once arrange your napkin, and proceed to the important business of the moment.

CXXXVIII.

In helping a joint, do not overload a personâs plate; and if game, or any particularly select dish is placed before you, serve it with discretion.
