American society women have new
fad. Several well known leaders of
the society set of New York are now
supposedly taking the rest cure. and
officially they are in strict retirement
In certain French retreats. IN reality
they arc confined to their rooms In
various hotels through having the
skin removed from their faces, necks
and arms. The process. which con-
stinues until a new skin has formed, Is
slow. and painful. but tho result Is very
satisfactory.
Women who have been thus skinned
come out after twelve weeks with a
tender. rosy complexion OF four
weeks old baby. Nine. Adair. the
beauty doctor. who has gone to New
York to reskin Mrs. Katherine Glenn
mons Gould, has left six American pa
tents In charge OF her assistant The
names OF the prominent society wo-
men are carefully concealed. and their
friends only surmiso their identity
from the fact that they are making
a retreat"
