SERVES SAMMEES
Establishes First of Chain

and Service Centers
DAINTIES AT COST RATES
Dy HENRI BAZIN
Klnff Correspondent of the Evening Ledger Lltl
the American Armv in France
AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUARTERS
IN FRANCE. Sept. 30.
'Hie American Satvatton Army in "on
the Job" somewhere In France. In a little
while It will be "somewhere," and that In
quantities Under tho supremo direction
of Colonel William S. Barker, of New York,
nnd the direct personal direction of Staff
t'nntnln William Halpln, who comes from
Philadelphia, the first Salvation Army hut
mil thrown open today not many railcs
fiom where theso lines are written.
The hut Is really a long sectional wooden
""'"'""tf- 15 & 40 fcct' Hr'antly "shted
'1u" l" windows upon each side. The
lor at ono end is as wide as the wel-
ome that goes with It. I did not measure
" but S-'mmc"' ln columns of fours could
n.Ka thi-mich with room to snare.
Tho hut is In charge of Ensign Hlckcy,
wlio has ile men and sK Salvation lassies
with him They are nil musicians and will
glc concert and song services for the
Sammee nt frequent Intervals. They pro
pose, In uddltlon, making fudge, home-made
caramels, cookies and cikcs, with real
American pic to be sold at cost prices.
The aim of this Salvation Army venture
Is in a mensuro different from the alms
generally associated with the army's work
at home. Religion Is by no means tho main
scheme ln view, but rather righteousness,
and tho s.ihatlon of the body, coupled with
clean, healthy, moral p.-iBtlmlng. To that
end the huts will be used for service and
Bible classes on Wednesday and Sunday
evenings At nil other times they will be at
the disposal of tho Sammccs for denomina
tional services, or club and fraternity meet
ings. Already arrangements have been
made for a Jewish service by tho Hebrew
Sammee of the battalion quartered near
the hut, and tho Loyal Order of the Moose
will have an Initiation and lodge meeting
during the coming week.
Tho six women rank as captains In tho
Salvation Army. Their names are Edith
Hlckcy, wlfo of tho ensign ln charge;
Helen Purvlnnce, Margaret Sheldon, Geneva
Ladd, Elsie Merrlflcld and Frances Reuton.
They come from Chicago nnd western
points. It Is their Intention to open a
clothes-mending bureau, nnd to darn socks,
sew on buttons and repair rents In khaki
trousers free of charge. All Sammee has
to do Is to bring his torn or worn duds, and
get 'em back ready to wear In a few days.
The influence of theso six women has
already been felt in the village where tho
hut has been erected. They arc the first
American women who have come Into the
army zwne to llvo the life of the troops and
as such, nre looked upon In respectful won
der. They will cook their own meals In
quarters nttached to one end of the hut,
and sleep on Sammee cots, rising nt reveille,
and being ready to serve at all hours. Tho
Salvation Army men will live ln tents and
take mess with the Sammces.
Stiff Captain Halpln, who Is In charge
of tho enterprise directly on the Job ln the
zone, told your correspondent that the Sal
vation Army expects to put up n similar
hut In every town nnd village In the zone.
Captain Halpln, who is n member of the
Philadelphia Musical Union nnd Is well
known at Salvation Army headquarters.
Eighth and Vino streets. Is establishing a
newspaper section of the hut. Ills aim Is
to supply newspapers from every town ln
the United States from whence hall the
Sammees, In sections where the original
hut stands, and where alt futuro ones nre
to be erected. I found that as usual amonir
all young Sammees that I have talked with
In these somewhere In France, that a fair
proportion hall from Philadelphia, nnd I
started the newspaper section by hnndlng
to Captain Halpln seven copies of the
Evenino Ledger, with the promise to let
him have more as time went on. When 1
left for correspondents' headquarters, seven
different Sammees were looking nt thes
seven different Evenino Ledgers, and
every mother's son of thorn had his paper
open nt the sports page, giving tho baseball
news tho earnest once over.

Murder
NEW YORK, Nov. 3. Roland B. Moll
neux. central figure ln the famous murder
mystery Known ns the "Mollncux case."
nearly twenty years ago, died yesterday In
a I.ons Island Hospital
Mollneux was arrested after Mrs. Kate
Adams had died from drinking poison con
tained in a headache potion. It was at
lesed the poison was sent by Mollneux to
i fellow club member who boarded. nt Mrs
Adams's home and who was a rival of
Mollneux In the courtship of Blanche Chese
borough. Before Mollneux wis brought to
trial In November. 1899. he married Miss
Cheseborough. Subsequently his wife di
vorced him.
Mollneux suffered r. mental breakdown
from overwork In writing "The Man In
side," which was produced in 1913 as n
play He was sent four years ago to the
asylum In which he died. His second wife,
who was Miss Margaret Connell, and their
child were at his side. He was about fifty
two years old. t
In the world of commerce Roland Burn
ham Mollneux was the name of a chemist.
In the literary and dramatlo circles the
name stands for a playwright and writer
of no small ability. In the public mlpd the
name Is Indelibly associated with two fa
mous murder trials In which Mollneux stood
accused of causing the death of Mrs. Adams.
The prosecution charged that Mollneux
sent the headache powders containing the
poison to Harry Cornish. The prominence
of the accused man and of his father, Oen
eral Edward Leslie Mollneux, an English
min who had fought for the United States
In the Civil War, and had afterward made
a fortune ln the paint manufacturing bus),
ness tn Brooklyn, added to the public
Interest
Mollneux, convicted at the first trial, after
weary months In the Tombs, was sent to the
death house at Sing Sing, where ha spent
nearly two yeirs tn the company of doomed
men before he was granted a new trial and
acquitted.

ANXIOUS NEWI.YWED,
The modern kitchen cabinet has a place
for everything that Is ordinarily placed ln
the kitchen cupboard. However, as the
kitchen Is large and there Is room for a
cupboard, It would come In very handy as a
storing placo for extra dishes and large
kitchen utensils, etc. No pictures are used
on kitchen walls. Have a metal-topped
kitchen table. Cover floor with linoleum.
Place the kitchen furniture in such position
as to save steps for tho one who Is to work
In It. For Instance, put the kitchen cabinet
where it will be convenient to tho stove and
the sink.
American walnut furniture Is being used
In dining rooms and old blue window hang
ings look very well with It. If your wall
Is plain have figured hangings, but If not,
have plain ones, Center your sideboard In
a wall space and balance It In another part
of the room with a buffet or serving table.
In the smaller dining rooms little console
tables are taking the place of long buffets.
These do not take up very much space and
are very pretty. Over a console table hangs
a mirror, which should bo hung to directly
face the opening of the dining room on to
the Dutch hall. On the conbole a pair of
candlesticks look very well.
Have one large rug In your dining room,
as dining room furniture is very apt to
scratch the floor. The fact that small rugs
or runners slip need not keep you from
having them ln your sitting room and Dutch
hall, for there aro llttlo rubber treads that
come to keep them faBt to the lloor If you
are planning to have very good small rugs,
while the floors are new they will probably
show them off to better advantage than the
large rugs. Sometimes, though, a large rug
seems to add moro warmth and cozlness
to a room.
One might write a-volume on suggestions
to beautify tha home. Here, however", are
twe rules: Be careful to use colors, not
that always match, but that always har
monize. Do not load the house up with
pictures and bric-a-brac. There Is beauty ln
simplicity.
Hardwood floora can be wiped up with a
cloth wrung out in lukewarm weak, whits
Buds. They can bs polished with a plica
of brussels carpet tacked around a brick.
The department stores sell very good polish
ing oil, with which It Is well to go over the
floors occasionally. At house-cleaning ttm'e
they should have a thorough going over.
Use frames that match or tone In with the
wood In tha hall and sitting room. Dark
wood Is preferred to gilt ones.

He had hung out only one. You can look

telling Howdy about the stars and nbout
all the angels In heaven that I know the
angels that have been there n, long time and
nre now good at flying and tho'o that
havo Just gone Intely nnd have to fly with
one foot on a cloud till they get used to
wings when the first thing I knew there
I wai with my head on Howdy for a pillow
and the sky was getting palo and I was
cold ns a pickle
1 went Into the house and made a flro tn
t' o klchen to wnrm'up by nnd when I wns
i- arm I went and milked tho cow nnd the
it.nn who Is n. hundred years old was sleep
ing yet, fo I ate bread and milk nnd gave
Howdy a pan of milk, which ho ate, though
1 guess he wished milk had a bono In It.
Then I took tho hoo nnd mado a I10I0 for
the dead dog and rolled It In 11 blanket
nnd burled It. As Howdy and I were goina,
away through the hole In tho vines an auto
tame along nnd n lady who wns In It said,
"Llttlo girl, do you live here?" I said, "Ves,
ma'am, sometimes." She said, "Could you
get mo a glass of milk?" So I did and sho
drank It and gave me a quarter.
Tho mnn who Is a hundred ears old had
Kot up when I went Into tho houe, fco I
gao the money to him. lie went Into his
bedroom and shut tho door nnd I caw him
put It through a crack In tha lloor, for I
pteped at him through the keyhole. He camo
cut looking as If he thought he had dono
omethlng tinart, nnd ho said, "I nm n
hundred years old." I did not laugh, be
taubo you shouldn't laugh at any ono who
hasn't any sense and can't help It.
Wheti I got back to Mr. Itockrudder's I
told tho burglar all about the hoboes and
what Howdy did to them. Ho got palo and
snld, "I wish you were my girl." I said. "1
Hliould think you would, for anybody would
be lucky to havo a girl like me" Ho said,
"You certainly do dislike yourself." I don't
Urow what mado him think that, for I
don't.
I had not been In school very long toda
when a policeman came for me. The pollco
had arrested tho hoboe.t on suspicion and tno
burglar saw It in tho paper nnd phoned tho
rollco about what they did to tho man who
Is a hundred years old. So the policeman
took me to tho stntlon to tee If I knew
them, und I picked them out of a crowd and
Howdy nearly picked them out, too, bu. .
inado him stop. They certainly were "hewed
up. Tho police made me tell them who
i.iy father Is. for I have got to come again
v hen tho hoboes aro tried. Then nil tho
pillcemen remembered me, because I had
helped to catch the gnomes under tho bank
Dy the time they were through with me It
v-as too late for school, so a policeman
Phoned for Levy and I mado him take me to
J:m's and Maggie's. They have got a baby
cow, which they have named Patsy Klldare
nnd I am going to teach it to do tricks. If
I can teach it to turn over endways I think
I can start a show In our kitchen tr some
where and make a lot of money. I will
need It, for It Is going to cost a lot to

Maggie sat on the floor with mo like .1

tnd then she and Jim nnd Howdy and ;
played hide and seek around tho house and
tho barn and I nearly laughed my head

How to Get a Correct Sitting Position
A FEW simple exercises, which can be
TV taken without the help of a teacher
will enable one to get the right position In
sitting.
EXERCISE 1
Placo tho hands upon tho hips, with the
thumbs back and the forearms straight.
Bring the elbows up nnd carry tho thumbs
back as far as possible. Look up nt the
celling, carrying tho head back until you
nre looking straight up. Press with the
thumbs ns hard as you can upon the back,
and draw down the chin. You will then
have a good position, with the chest well
out, which Is the object of 'this exercise.
KXERCISB 2.
Start from the tame position as before,
with the hands upon tho hips and the
thumbs well back, and the head turned
toward the celling. Keep looking up at
tho celling while bending slowly forward
at the hips as far as possible. Slowly raise
the trunk, still looking at tho celling, press
ing hard with the thumbs, and drawing
the chin in. That brings tho body up ln
splendid position.
EXERCISE 3
Sit well forward on the front edge of
the chair, facing the wall, with the toes
against the wall bo that the body may be
kept balanced. Place the hands upon tho
hips and bend slowly backward until the
head touches the back of the chair. Press
the thumbs upon the back, draw the chin
ln. and come slowly forward to proper
position. Count four while bending back
ward, and four while coming forward,
EXERCISE 4
Sit well forward ln the chair, with the
feet spread apart a little and flat on the
floor. Grasp the seat of the chair firmly,
look up at tho celling, and push the chest
forward as far as possible while holding
on to the chair with the hands. That pulls
tho chest up and the shoulders back. Try
to slide forward as far ns possible while
holding yourself back. In this way the
chest Is forced out. even ln a person who
Is really flat-chested.
The correct standing position Is easily
acquired by a llttlo practice. The Improve
ment In health and personal appearance Is
so great as to make worth while the effort
to obtain a good poise and graceful posi
tion. First of all. It Is necessary to get
a correct Idea of the erect position. With
the aid of a teacher this can be acquired
In a few minutes. Having no teacher, one
may employ a wall as a trainer,
Curvature of Spino
la It possible to overcome a alltht curvature
of the aplna In a parson thlrty-nva years nfatJi
If It It a lateral curvature and if by
muscular effort you can straighten up. the
curvature may be corrected entirely. If t
has become permanently rigid, It cannot be
entirely corrected.
Tea and Coffee
If I seam able to usa tea and coKes with n
bad effects, may I not continue to uae.them?
SIRS. T. 8.
If a person utes tea or coffee until he
sees the bad effects, very great harm has
already been done, These narcptlca pro

Changes occur In the arteries and the nerves
and ln the tissues of the body generally
until they become so Injured that they are

After all, the main charm of a eapt
is the way it falls in ripples across
the back, and tho main charm o
a stole is the way tho long, flat
ends fall in front. So here aro ths
best features of tho two styles com
bined in one neckpiece. Two of the
richest and most beautiful of furs
have been used in this model. It is
of Hudson Bay sable, entirely
lined with ermine, the ermim
showing where it is turned back
at the neck and under the stole
ends. In the back of this scarf
is a real cape, very full, that
falls to the waist line. Tho muff is
rather largo and shows tho ermlnt
lining at tho opening.
