Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lessons on Manners: Arranged for Grammar Schools, High Schools and Academies

Granting the truth of this statement, manners taught as the outward expression of high thoughts seated in a heart of courtesy outrank in importance many other school subjects. As the embodiment of beau tiful ideals of conduct they are most refining in their effect upon character.
