New York. Oct Alleging that
Hermann Oelrichs, who she said, was
known to her as Billie Creighton,
had stabbed her Tuesday night while
thew were automobile riding, Miss
Lucille Singleton was unable to leave
her bed today. She says she is 10 and

the case, said this afternoon:

received each month a check from Dali

man named Smith, and were cashed by
the girl in a drug store in Harlem
Young Oelrichs was released shortly
after his arrest. when his mother ap-
peared at the police station and fur
nished $4,000 bail giving her 100000

Miss Mary Chambers, principal of

she attended school, was quoted today
as having said over the long distance

tooth, and when they see a real sugar
plum of husband that has been left
lying unguarded around the house they
are sometimes tempted to steal it.
Good hOusekeepers are divided as to
whether husbands should be skinned or
not before preserving. Some hold that
the first thing to do with a husband is to
peel off its bank roll, eOntending that It
Is easier to keep it that way, while
others argue that separating husband
from its small change is all that is neees-
sary, and that if you remove all of its
long green from it it is apt to sour on
You and ferment.
As both processes are successful it
seems to, be a matter of individual skill
with the housewife, so the young wife
may take her choice of methods.
The husband is now ready for the last
process of preserving. The old way, in
vogue in our mothers times, was to salt
it down in brine. This was done by a
housewife keeping on tap a large supply
of tears which she poured over her hus-
band morning, noon and night until he
was as sticky and salt as a keg of Goldfish
This means of keeping a husband did
not prove satisfactory, however, and the
modern scientific woman preserves her
husband in sugar instead of salt.
