* Grab the nearest book.

* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
"Oftentimes dancing or card-playing follows the tea; and the guests remain until ten o'clock, or even later. In this case the bonnets or hats are removed with the visitors enter. The usual custom is to leave within an hour, and you should then make your adieux to the members of the family. Introductions are not often given, but all can fell at liberty to converse with one another. Evening "tea parties" or "coffees" are gaining much favor, and are kept up till quite late hours. Little tables are placed about the rooms, and all sit around them at lunch, and are as jolly and informal as possible. After a few days a ceremonious call should be paid by the guest, not to exceed ten minutes."
BOOK: This nearest book on my book self is The Household and Ladies Cylopedia, published in 1886. Given as a gift, hand written on the first page, "To Miss Gorden, Compliments of Ella Donnelly, 1889. A friend of my great grandmother.
(Such a perfect entertaining book for a Lady like me! LOL!!)
And we are to tag? (Sooooo Sorry!)
