[Etiquette, from the Fr. _étiquette_, Sp. _etiqueta_, a ticket;

delivered not only, as Cotgrave says, for the benefit and

advantage of him that receives it, but also entitling to place,

to rank; and thus applied to the ceremonious observance of rank

or place; to ceremony. Webster adds, "From the original sense of

the word, it may be inferred that it was formerly the custom to

deliver cards containing orders for regulating ceremonies on

public occasions."]

oblige.
