Be Polite to All by Anonymous
"Be Polite to All" by Anonymous is an illustrated narrative likely written in the late 19th century. This book serves as a moral tale aimed at instilling values of civility and respect among individuals, regardless of their social status or appearance. Through its story, the book emphasizes the significance of treating everyone with kindness and the dangers of judging others based on superficial observations. The narrative centers around a notable encounter between
a rude train conductor and a seemingly unimportant, lame man. Initially disregarded by the conductor due to his appearance, the man is later revealed to be the Chairman of the Railway Company. After experiencing disrespect, the Chairman chooses to impart a lesson instead of seeking revenge, advising the conductor to show politeness to everyone he meets, regardless of their outward appearance. Ultimately, the encounter teaches both the conductor and the readers that appearances can be deceiving and that one should always act with courtesy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
