New York, Dec. 27.—Mrs. Isabel Mallon, the writer, is critically ill from pneumonia at her home in this city. Her physician last night said he feared she had but a few hours to live. Mrs. Mallon has been confined to her bed two weeks. In October her mother, who was her inseparable companion, died after a lingering illness. The shock was a severe one to Mrs. Mallon, and for several weeks she was confined to her bed with nervous prostration. As the writer of "Bab's Babble" Mrs. Mallon gained a national reputation. She wrote these letters year after year until a short time ago, and they were always bright, entertaining and clever. She has also written extensively for the Ladies' Home Journal. She recently completed a book, not yet published, entitled "The Business Girl."
