Mrs.

Dr.

Grundy

has

prescribed

the

following

tab-

lets

which

are

taken

by

the

patient

before

each

func-

tion

with

good

result.

It

may

be

added

that

any

at-

tempt

to

keep

up

in

motoring

fashions

will

result

in^

insanity

or

inebriety.

Fashion

shows

herself

fickle

indeed

in this

raiment,

and

what

is

new

to-day

is

old

to-morrow.

For

other

occasions,

however,

tabu-

lated

form

is

sufficiently

correct,

regardless

of

seasons.
