Which I happen to have found kicking around a book store. Some of its comments are priceless...
'No woman on the stage will ever make a respectable wife.Although most easily observed,she has shown every part of herself to a paying audience.Distrust a woman who will show her legs on the stage'
'Heavy legs and flat shoes are signifiers of a most coarse nature.Avoid this as you would the Pox'
'A delicately turned ankle,feminine boots and stockings on a gently curving leg-you may surely go for this girl'
'If you are constantly observing the back of your beloved's legs during your courtship,remember this:you will always have to play second fiddle to her'
'Thin yet muscular legs are best for a man who likes his household run with military precision-she will get up early in the morning to blow up the servants(?!)'
'There is one accompaniment to the delicately turned ankle which many a man will find a source of great happiness-red hair.Propose at once'.
'If the legs of a woman are very masculine,fly from a woman so endowed,she will be no use at all'...
