You are nowise fashionable nova
days IL you haven't got the measles or
at least are not quarantined with said
infantile disease which is ravaging the
beauty of our young people just now.
Irnere Is Lisa MOTIFS, lne attractive uepu-
tante OF the last season, laid up in
h darkened room-to protect her eyes,
OF course-and Valentine Mitchell, too,
another charming girl, is suffering from
tho selfsame malady. Charlotte Brown,
who is doing such splendid work in
music over in New York this winter,
came home for while last week. and
now she is quarantined over here and
Unable to return to her studies because
her small brother has a case OF measles.
Mamie Hecksher also has a case and
30 has Uncle Guy.
J, It really is too bad II It were not
bit funny; It would be 30 much moro
stylish to have something like appendi-
citis or Inflammation OF the sinus, which
Is the very last word In things social.
