Short, semi-biographical pamphlet produced by Stimso Adid in 1956, intended as "instructional reading for young men," featuring essays on sexual union, table manners, elocution and the mores of polite society. The work is divided neatly in twain, the latter half being dedicated almost entirely to Adid's fascination with the metaphorical properties of pantaloons.
