But a sensible hostess will expunge from her visiting list the names of those Fersons who are ill bred enough to avai themâ€" selves of her hospitality and not to take the pains to make any return for it. In a case where one has never been invited to the house before, cards should be left within three days. If beitween intimate friends, where many invitaâ€" tions are given, and accepted, the perâ€" liod may extend itself to a fortnight. But in any case, the ceremony should be observed. It is too often neglected by persons who ought to know better. whether one has accepted or not, it is for the cou invited, that the return not because one has be the entertainment. In past days there was considerably more ceremony observed over calls afâ€" ter entertainments of every descripâ€" tion than is the case in these more hasâ€" ty and hurried days. People who go out a great deal would find the major part of their time taken up with calling in response to invitations they have, or have not yet accepted, if rules were not ‘ what they bhave been in the past. For instance, a mere ordinary invitation to afternoon tea does not entail a call afterwards. nor does a call after dinner prevail among intimate friends. With at homes, or in the case of formal dinâ€" ners ind other entertainments of the same sort, calling or card leaving is still rigidly observed. The call should be made within a week or ten days afi ter the entertainment, and cards shou! be left if the hostess is not at home. When any one has received cards for an at home, or a ball, and is not acâ€" quainted with the bost and hostess, but has been invited through some mutual friend, be orshe must still leave cards at the house afterwards, within the reâ€" gu‘lation period.
