DR. HARDHACK’S PRESCRIPTION.
Dr. Hardhack makes a professional visit to the Proudie mansion, New York City. In the sitting-room are gathered Grandma Proudie (L), Mamma Proudie (C), Aunt Flighty (R).
Mamma Proudie. I greatly fear our dear Emily will never be restored to health.
Aunt Flighty. Oh, don't say that. I've known people to look terribly white and a great deal thinner than Emily, and not die of it.
Grandma Proudie. [To Mamma P.] I thought you were going to send for Dr. Hardhack.
