To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In sitting between two persons, one of whom is of higher rank than the other, the face should be turned more toward the first ; if between a gentleman and a lady, the lady has the preference. To look around at the chair, before sitting down, is highly im- proper. The sitting down must not be hasty. The body must be as erect as possible, without stiffness. If one has a sword at his side, in sitting down he draws it for- ward with the left hand; when seated, he lets it glide back to his side. It ...is not allowable to draw the coat-tails forward with both 6 Digitized by LjOOQ IC 82 ESTHETIC PHYSICAL CULTURE. hands before sitting down, unless in the slightest degree, and without occasioning remark. It is better left undone, as is the practice with all polished gentlemen. For Ladies. — Ladies who, in the costume of the "rococo" age, cannot feel the chair on account of their hooped skirts, find it very difficult to seat themselves well. There is constant dan- ger of shoving the chair back with their skirts.
