New Postmaster at MCCreQ0r.

The Post Office will change hands
about the first of the month. Anton
Huebsch succeeding L. N. Kramer.
Mr.. Kramer's term of service covering
nearly five years and that of his assist
ant, Miss Isabelle Boyle, have been
eminently satisfactory to the people of
the community. If the merit system
instead of Ito the victor belong the
spoils" system obtained in the matter
of post Offices they would surely be en-
titled to long lease. Bot yet the Re-
publicans have had their finger in the
patronage pie a long time, and we, at
least, can't regret that the Democrats
are distributing plums at Washington
nowadays.
The appointment ard confirmation
were made some time ago. By some
oversight, the name of Huebsch ap-
peared in the bond without the neces-
sary 80" in it and the nominating, con-
firming, bonding and all the rest had to
be done over again. This has caused a
delay of some months and accounts tor
the fact that the final confirmation was
not made until August 28th. -McGreg-

KRAMER.

Jacob Kramer and wife Katharine
were very early settlers in Howard
county. Married in Alsace, Germany,
in 1853, they emigrated to America in
the same year, stopping first at Free.
port, ILL.,, and in 1854 permanently To-
eating about miles northwest of
Cresco. Like all pioneers of this sec
ton they built their first home with
logs from the surrounding forests. The
Indians of that day were numerous and
treacherous. Though the privations
were many, still they persevered on
and made for themselves and four
children comfortable home.
Mother Kramer was converted at a
quarterly meeting held in Preston,
Mimi, in 1858 and became an earnest,
devout christian, herself and bus.
band being charter members of the
Evangelical society which erected a
church in 1875 southwest of Florence
vile, where until her death she was a
regular attendant at worship.
Their home was q refuge to the
early pioneer preachers, and the seen ?
of many happy revivals and quarterly
meetings. People came from long dis.
tances to attend these meeting and
remained for days. ,,4y
Eleven years ago her husband was
called to his reward, since which
time she and her brother Diebold
Bronner have lived in Florenceville.
She was born in Alsace, Germany,
Feb. l, 1882, and after brief illness,
beloved by all she passed peacefully
away Oct. 4, 1913 at the ripe age of 81
years, 8 months and days.
She is'survived by her three child
rem Jacob A. Kramer, Dexter, Mimi,
Mrs. Mary X. Griese, of Belmond, and
Mrs. William Bigalk, of Albion twp.
Beside IA grand children and one
great grand son she also leaves four

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines,

If you want to contribute directly to
the occurrence of capillary bronchitis
and pneumonia use cough medicines
that contain iodine, morphine, heroin
and other sedatives when you have a
cough or cold. An expectorant like
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is what
is needed. That cleans out the culture
beds of breeding places for the germs
Of pneumonia and other germ diseases.
That is why pneumonia never results
from cold when Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is used. 1t has a world wide
reputation for it's cures. 1t contains
no morphine or other sedative. For

BAWDEN

Mabelle Aleta Bawden, second daugh-
ter of Jesse and Edith Bawden, was
born at Rush, Joe Daviess County,
Illinois, on July 4, 1893, and passed
away at the home of her parents at
Bonair, Iowa, October 3. 1913, aged 20
years, 2 months and 20 days.
Mabel was young lady of splendid
character. She was a Christian girl
and no one could bring reproach upon
her profession. She affiliated herself
with the Church of God at the age of
10 years and has ever been consist
ent, earnest member. These latter
years she was especially active in the
church work, being teacher in the
Sunday School, steward on the official
board, and president of the Epworth
League.
Her death creates a vacancy that
cannot be filled. She leaves an in
fluence that will not wear out in this
generation and may be spoken of in
the next.
During her illness she was patient
sufferer and always considerate of
others.
Not only do her beloved relatives
mourn her loss, but many friends in
and about Bonair and also in her old
home in Illinois, will sorrow deeply.
1t was evidenced that she had many
friends by the bestowal of many
flowers and little kindnesses while she
was i'll. The floral offering at the
church on the day of the funeral
services was an additional witness of
the loyalty of friends.
Surely she can say to the Lord, with
Job when his suffering ceased: II
know that Thou canst do all things
and that no purpose of Thine can be
restrained. had heard of
Thee by the hearing of the ear, but
now mine eye seeth Thee
Funeral services were held at the
home at 2 o'clock, Sunday afternoon,
October 5th, and at the M. E. church
in Bonair at 2:30 o'clock, where large
assemb'age of friends paid their last,
sad respects.
Six young gentlemen friends acted
az pail bearers and six young lady
friends were honorary pail bearers.
