 A woman's house address appears at the lower right corner of her card, her "At Home" day at the left. A receiving day never appears on a man's card.

Should a woman use her visiting card as an invitation, she adds the date and hour in writing at the left corner.

Professors do not use their title on their cards. A physician's social card reads either: Dr. Henry Stewart Peters or Henry Stewart Peters, M. D. His professional card bears his address, office hours and telephone number in small script.

A clergyman's card reads: Rev. Thomas D. Loyde.

A married woman leaves one of her own and two of her husband's cards when calling on another married woman. A woman never leaves her card for the men of the household. The custom of leaving a large number of cards is quite obsolete. Not more than three is a good rule to follow. One card for the Misses Brown includes the unmarried daughters of the family.
