WOMAN'S PAGE. Socks for the Summer Season BY MARY MARSHALL. If there is one question that the ‘hildren's doctor dislikes to be asked and one for which he is always pre- pared, it is the question of stockings vs. socks. “Do you approve, doctor, of short socks in the Winter?” or “Would it be safe for little Peggy to wear socks all the year?” He knows that the young mother who asks the question wants him to approve of socks; he also knows that if he does approve and if Peggy takes a severe cold he will get the blame. But fortunately there is no question ©f socks in the summertime—and every STRIPED WITH RED AN BEIGE SOCK WITH PLAID , OPEN-WORK SOCK OF BEIGE LE.

Tray Meals. Some people associate tray meals with days spent in bed and iliness, and there- fore assume that nothing very appe- tizing or substantial ever is served on a tray. But tray meals may be made as substantial or interesting as you please. One of the most delightful “lunch- eons” I ever attended was at the apart- ment of & very busy professional woman, who always her own lunch served on a tray and finds it a diversion for her friends to have theirs served in the same way. She has a very large, charmingly living room, and when the time comes for luncheon her maid out & number of little Japanese stands of dinner-table height, which she sets before the guests wherever they happen to be sitting. Then she brings in the trays-—all alike of the black Japanese sort—spread with fine linen tray cloths, and the lunch. In the meantime the maid has placed a large serving tray on a larger table and from this passes extra bread, butter, water, olives and various condi- ments. The chief advantage of this sort of luncheon, I admit, is its novelty. In the city apartment with no dining room but a large living room it saves the trouble of arranging a large table and moving the furniture about. ‘The man at work at home—artist, clergyman, writer, for instance—often finds it a great convenience to have his this w‘n‘r %0 that he can continue his work without much interruption. If you live in a large house not very easy to heat in Winter you will find tray meals a convenience for supper or luncheon. MENU FOR A DAY. luncheon served in BREAKFAST. salt.

Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND. ‘There is nothing so cheerful as an open fire, and even though there be a furnace fire in the house, the addi- tional heat from the fireplace is not enough to make the room unbearably hot. In the Summer, on the other hand, a crackling blaze will do much to take away the chill that is often so disagreeable after the furnace fire has gone out for good. Aside from the heating question, there is something about the ofien fire that makes conversations delightful. And as for tea and cakes in front of it—well, fs there any setting which lends such charm to a hostess? Needless to say, the fireplace needs no great amount of decoration, for, in itself, it is decorfitive and the simpler it is the more charm it seems to lend e hsteation appropriate In the an fireplace for the informal living room.

Donalson, well known in this and other cities as a clown and Negro imitator, was ar-| rested here today by several military detectives, two of whom had traced him here from Philadelphia. | Donalson has of late been attending several mysterious meetings held in Philadelphia, and this led the military authorities to believe that he might have some knowledge of the alleged Ehn to burn that city. After his arrest e was committed to the Old Capitol Prison here, ‘The military detectives seized Donal- son's frunks. In them they found many letters from persons in the Southern States. But the military authorities have not stated whether there is any- thing in these letters to implicate Don- alson in a plot to burn Philadelphia or to perform any other illegal act. Orders have been issued by the Navy Department to reduce the number of vessels in the Potomac Flotilla which has been guarding the Lower Potomac since the war began. Now that fighting is over, it is not believed by the Gov- ernment that such an expensive patrol is any longer necessary there. Within a week about one-half of the vessels of the flotilla will go out of commission—about 20—and most of the officers will return to civil life. The Don. flagship of Comdr. Parker of the Potomac Flotilla, is at the Navy Yard, having come up the river yesterday. The fine steamer Lady Sterling, Lieut. Comdr, Pierre Giraud, arrived at the Navy Yard today, and is attracting much attention. She is a schooner- rigged, sidewheel blockade runner, and was captured a few months ago while trying to run in from the sea by the Union vessels blockading the harbor of Charleston, S. C. It is reported that in the future the Lady Sterling will be kept herg for the use of the President of the United States. All officers and enlisted men of the 2d and 5th Army Cor arriving in Washington en route to join their corps are_to report by order of Gen. Grant Maj. Gen. Parke, commanding the District of Alexandria, at Alexandria, Va, there to await the arrival of their commands. These two corps are moving toward Washington now.

This is of greas value especially where mothers «++ no matter how they urge « ++ have difficulty in persuading children to eat vegetables in the right amounts.

It is acceptable, therefore, in nearly every instance where bran might be too severe. Your physician will agree. Think what this means to children whose health-habits are irregular . . . and to you motbers who are so concerned!
