(Scene: The Waiting Room of a Fashionable Physician)
Fair Patient just ushered in: — “What — you here, Lizzie? Why ain't you well?”
Second Ditto: — “Perfectly, thanks! But what's the matter with you, dear?”
Note the fashionable furnishings in the fashion physician’s office: the Arts and Crafts & Aesthetic Movement furniture and the Asian, probably Japanese, or Japanaese-style pottery.
