8) Never should your table knife be used for conveying food to your
mouth.

9) You find your small bread and butter plate and butter spreader at
your left. Never spread at once an entire slice of bread; break off a
half or a quarter and spread it on your bread and butter plate,--not on

10) When your plate is passed for a second helping, let your knife and
fork remain on it, side by side; also, when you have finished. Never
rest your knife or fork partly on the table and partly on your plate or
your napkin ring. Avoid mixing your food on your plate.

ice-cream fork is provided.

12) If cutting the lettuce leaves of your salad is necessary, cut with
your fork.

13) Make the least possible noise in chewing, and none at all in taking

small mouthfuls, and you can avoid noise.

14) Don't drink from a cup while it holds a spoon. When not using your
teaspoon, let it lie on the saucer. Do not drink from your saucer. Stir
quietly, and lay your spoon in your saucer at once.
