Fascinating little book of manners, for kids and adults. We can all learn from these, and would do well to incorporate many of these civility rules into our lives, even today. We'd have a more polite society, and probably get along better with each other. This little book doesn't take 10 minutes to read through, there are 110 maxims contained in these pages. They were intended to polish manners, teach how to treat others, and help us practice self-control. Many of these bring scriptural admonitions to mind. It would be hard to pick a favorite since so many are so terrific, and some of them are even humorous!
