HOUSE MAY PROBE
HOSPITAL CHARGES
Dr.. A. B. Hooe Writes Letter to Dis
tiet Committee Concerning
Providence.
SOME DOCTORS OPPOSE

It lis considered probable that a Con-
gressional Investigation will result from
charges made against Providence Hos
pital by DIR. A. Barnes Hooe. who yes
terday sent to the chairman of the
House District Committee letter. in
which he suggested that the Indictment
of methods at Providence by the Medical
Society of this city be sounded by Con-
gress.
The letter Of DIR. Hooe followed charges
made at a meeting Wednesday Of the
District Medical Society. Providence
Hospital officials were charged with ex-
erting undue influence to persuade pa
tents to submit to, operations by house
surgeons rather than by family physi-
clans
Washington doctors in statements last
night said that they thought enough
harm had been done Providence Hospital
by the publicity given the charges. They
said that undoubtedly the hospital au-
thorities had been sufficiently punished,
and that the explanation of their side
OF the charges might have some effect
on the public.
There Is a meeting of the House Dis
trict Committee scheduled for today. 1t
is possible that the letter will be con-
sidered at this meeting. So far no action
has been taken.
The letter OF Dr. hOoe 10 the chairman
of the District Committee of the House
was as follows:
II beg to inclose you herewith news
paper clippings. showing a condition of
affairs at Providence Hospital, a govern
ment-supported institution. which the
Medical Society OF the District OF CO.
lumbia deemed necessary to investigate.
charged that undue influence is brought
to bear upon private patients at the hos
pital to make them accept as physicians
and surgeons members OF the profess
sion connected with the hospital rather
than their family physicians and surgeons
who sent them to the hospital. There
are other conditions at Providence Hos
pItal which think II would be we'll for
the sppropriating authorities Of Congress
to ascertain, to the end that the public
which Congress appropriates money to
benefit may be better served. II you
would care to have the stenographic re-
port of the testimony taken by the eN-
ecutive committee OF the Medical So
ciety at the investigation OF Providence
Hospital which has just been concluded,
will place II at your disposal
Yours respectfully.

HINTS IN SETTING. TABLE.

Everyone may not learn to set a
table artistically, but there are few
who cannot learn to set it much bet
ter than they do. 1t is called art by
some, and as such should be recog-
nized by everyone.
It is not so much what is put on the
table in the form Of dishes, linen and
service, as how 1t is done. Unusual,
faddish setting Of the table should
be avoided for the everyday or holt
day meal, unless it would be for such
days as Halloween.
The setting for the table usually
falls to the daughter of the house, II
there is one; II not, the mother does
1t herself or directs how it should be
done If there is q helper in the home.
There is no place in the entire home
which can show the individual artistic
touch Of mother or daughter as the
table, and there are some absolutely
fixed rules for the placing Of most Of
the service.
In the first place, linens should be
spotless and white and as fine rs your
style Of living will warrant, the sim
pier ones for everyday use and the
finer ones for special occasion.
They may be all this. but il not per
fectly washed and ironed, the corners
Of the cloth folded perfectly, even the
very foundation Of the table setting
will be a failure.
Table decorations should not be too
elaborate, and always in keeping with
the character of the day celebrated or
the desired color scheme used, writes
Alice G Kirk in the Cleveland Lead
er. Thanksgiving day colors are usu-
ally yellow to correspond with the
pumpkin and chrysantEemum, which
is the usual flower Of the day.
The soup plate is on a service plate,
which is an eight or ten-inch plate
Observe closely the accuracy with
which knife, fork, spoons, goblet and
other service. are placed on the Ia
BILE.
The soup spoon is placed to the
right of the knife and teaspoon and
the soup ladle to the right OF the soup
spoon. Using left hand for removing
cover Of tureen, you are ready to take
the ladle in right hand and serve soup
which may be passed to the other
members Of family at table.
The water glass or goblet should al
ways be placed at end Of knife blade
The bread and butter plate is on the
left ide at end Of fork. The silver IL
always used for the outside toward
the plate, either from right or left
Napkins should always be placed In
left side Of fork.
Twenty-four inches is the usua
space allowed for each cover or per
son.

Serving Tartar Sauce.

A delightful way to serve tartar
sauce is to cut lemon in half, clean
out the inside thoroughly and then
fill the halves with the sauce. One is
served to each guest. When fish is
served the little lemon cups are
placed around the edge of the platter
and one served to each guest. By
this method the sauce remains firm
instead of melting into a liquid when
put into a warm plate.-Washington

care of the wounded. At Magenta
you were again wounded in the front

our warriors at Syria, in China and
in Mexico. At the battle of Reichs-

the field amidst heap of slain cuiras-
