A series of sensible, well-written, and pleasant essays on the care of
the person, manners, etiquette, and ceremonials. The title _Bazar Book_
is taken from the fact that some of the essays which make up this volume
appeared originally in the columns of _Harper's Bazar_. This in itself
is a sufficient recommendation--_Harper's Bazar_ being probably the only
journal of fashion in the world which has good sense and enlightened
reason for its guides. The "Bazar Book of Decorum" deserves every
commendation. --_Independent._
A very graceful and judicious compendium of the laws of etiquette,
taking its name from the _Bazar_ weekly, which has become an established
authority with the ladies of America upon all matters of taste and
refinement. --_N. Y. Evening Post._
It is, without question, the very best and most thorough work on the
subject which has ever been presented to the public. --_Brooklyn Daily
Times._
It would be a good thing if at least one copy of this book were in every
household of the United States, in order that all--especially the youth
of both sexes--might read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest its wise
instruction, pleasantly conveyed in a scholarly manner which eschews
pedantry. --_Philadelphia Press._
Abounds in sensible suggestions for keeping one's person in proper
order, and for doing fitly and to one's own satisfaction the thousand
social duties that make up so large a part of social and domestic life.
--_Correspondence of Cincinnati Chronicle._
Full of good and sound common-sense, and its suggestions will prove
valuable in many a social quandary. --_Portland Transcript._
A little work embodying a multitude of useful hints and suggestions
regarding the proper care of the person and the formation of refined
habits and manners. The subject is treated with good sense and good
taste, and is relieved from tedium by an abundance of entertaining
anecdotes and historical incident. The author is thoroughly acquainted
with the laws of hygiene, and wisely inculcates them while specifying
the rules based upon them which regulate the civilities and ceremonies
of social life. --_Evening Post_, Chicago.
* * * It would be easy to quote a hundred curt, sharp sentences, full of
truth and force, and touching points of behavior and personal habitude
that concern us all. --_Springfield Republican._
By far the best book of the kind of which we have any knowledge.
--_Chicago Journal._
