Ivory wedding.  This is the thirtieth wedding anniversary,
       and is not usually celebrated.  If,
       however, it is done, the invitations may bear
       the words:  No presents received, and in accepting
       or declining the invitation congratulations
       may be extended.  Any article of ivory is appropriate
       as a gift.  An entertainment is usually
       provided.

Jewelry—­men.  Jewelry, except the very plainest,
       should not be worn, and in general the less
       the better.  A display of diamonds and fancy
       jewelry betrays the poor taste of the wearer.

A man wearing the pins and badges of secret societies should see that they are small and unobtrusive, for in jewelry, as in all matters of dress, quality rather than quantity is to be desired.

Jr.  When the son is named after the father, he
       adds Jr. to his name.  Upon the death of the
       father he omits it.  This abbreviation is
       sometimes added to a woman’s name on her
       card when her husband has the same name as
       his father, and it is necessary to distinguish
       between the cards of the daughter-in-law
       and the mother-in-law.

If the mother-in-law should become a widow and wish to retain the husband’s baptismal name, she should add Sr., while her daughter would erase Jr.

       If both become widows, and wish to
       retain their husband’s Christian names, the
       daughter-in-law should add Jr.

       ends:  I have the honor to remain your Majesty’s
       most obedient servant.
