| General note | "In preparing the present 'manual' for the use of young ladies, the author has been guided, not more by a desire to offer that which might be really and permanently useful to them, than by a profound respect for the female character ... The materials of the work, which he has drawn from a variety of sources, have been selected with especial reference to actual utility."--Preface, p. vi. |
