The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1917-07-20

Charlotte Leroy Moshier, eldest
daughter of Harrison H. and Eliza
Ann Moshier was born in Leroy, New
York, October 31st, 1912 and died at
her home in Paw Paw July 18th, 1917
aged seventy-four years, eight
months and eleven days.
When she was eleven years old, her
parents moved to Michigan, settling
on a farm east of Paw Paw. She
was a charter member of the Christ
ian church of Paw Paw, placing her
membership there in 1862 and ever
since has lead consistent christian
life. Her many deeds of kindness
being often hidden from mortal eyes,
but no less powerful in the lives of
those she helped.
She was married to Arson T. Foote
November 18th, 1866 and with the ex-
ception of two years near Lansing,
her entire married life of nearly fifty
one years has been spent either in
Paw Paw or the immediate vicinity.
She was one of a family of five
children, of whom two brothers Otis
and Aaron have preceded her to the
better country, and leaves to mourn
her sudden departure, her husband
Arson Foote, one sister Mrs. John
Smith of Paw Paw, brother A. W..
Moshier of East Paw Paw, an adopt
ed daughter Mrs. Elmer O'Rourke, a
neice Mrs. E. /. Neher of Kalamazoo
and nephew Roy j. Moshier of east
Paw Paw besides a host of other
relatives and friends.
Of her life and faith and hope of
eternal gain, little need be said.
Those who knew her best, loved her
best. She lived as she believed all
should live, working and trusting day
by day, and was at all times ready
for the final summons, should it come
early or late. Her faith in God and
hope of heaven was as much a part
of her life as the air she breathed.
Heaven alone is able to chronicle her
deeds of kindness and words of COM
fort and tender counsel to those
among whom she passed the scenes
of daily life.

Interest in UkaIeIe.

Everyone who owns a photograph
has become familiar with the weird
witchery of the Hawaiian music and
no instrument has grown so rapidly in
popular favor as the Hawaiian ukalele.
Much of the novel tone quality and in
dividuality of the Hawaiian music is
due to the ukalele, the native Hawai-
ian instrument, of diminutive guitar
shape. Koa, a rare and valuable ma
tive wood is used in the manufacture
of genuine Hawaiian ukaleles, and no
other wood produces the same mellow
tone. Contrary to popular belief,
most of the ukaleles, no matter where
sold, are manufactured in this coun-
try, according to Mr.. Chas. Byers, in
Musical America. 1t is estimated that
more than 10000 of these instruments
were sold in California in one year.

Mental Derelict Had Planned to Use II

Governor Buchtel of Colorado said
he felt Just "bit nervous and just a
bit queer" when the detectives pre-
sented him with the loaded revolver
with which q mental wreck who had
developed the notion he ought to be
shot. had been hunting him for days.
The Governor went on to say: The
Hospital for the Insane is of course
the only place for these human
wrecks. They sometimes succeed
with their wild programs before they
can be placed within the shelters
which modern civilization provides
them.
"There is no way to account for the
desire of insane people to shoot pub
lie officials. Sometimes priests and
ministers are the targets. A most
devout priest In Denver was shot
while administering the Holy Com
munion at the altar. Our three mar
tyred presidents we're shot by men
who were mental wrecks. Presidents

he claims deduction, the listers shall as

Keeps Her Children
In Perfect Health
DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
the Family Laxative for
Many Years

Mrs. Aug. Doellefeld of Carlyle, ILL.,, re.
Gently wrote TO DR.. Caldwell, at Month
cello, ILL.,, that she has used DR.. Caldwelrs
Syrup Pepsin in her home for number
of years, and would not be without it,
as with it she has been able to keep her
four children in perfect health.
Dr. Csldwells Syrup Pepsin is com.
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that acts on the bowels in an easy,
natural way, and regulates the action of
this most important function. Nearly all
the sickness to which children are sub
ject Is traceable to bowel inaction, and
a mild, dependable laxative, such as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin should have a
place in every family medicine chest. 1t
is pleasant to the taste and children like
it, and take it readily, while it is equally
for adults.
DIR, Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold in
drug stores everywhere for fifty cents

tive substitutes, be sure you get DIR. Cald-

A LESSON FROM JACKSON-By Frank Crane

A lesson that the American people are learning
slowly is that democracy does not necessarily mean
neficiency.
Monarchy. absolutism Prussiansm, and all that
sort of thing has it's in the fact that it does
things The absolute boss who can act without
consulting any act without the defay OF
disputing senates and councils
In the first breakaway from one man power the
people fly to the opposite extreme and become
uuarrelling mob. All forms of American govern
ment have been thus faulty. Waste, graft, bosslsm
and confusion have characterized our city county
state and national governments.
We are getting our second wind, however There
are indications that We are determined to make
democracy efficient. This we can do by shorten
ing the ballot, simplifying machinery, centranznG
responsibility, and demanding @of public servants
that they make good or quit
In other words we are beginning to realize that
government is a business to be conducted by com
petent experts We paying more attention 10
mans ability TO administer his office than to his
ability to get elected to 1t.
An article in the Grand Rapids Press throws an
Interesting light on this by giving the details OF
what the commission-manager plan has done for
Jackson Mich a typical city of 10000 inhabitants
Previously to Jackson's adoption of the COM
mission-manager plan the city was in the bog or
aldermanic municipality. Then the city hired
man named GAYLORD Cummin. made him a response
HE boss lust as if he foreman of a factory,
and told him to go to 1t.
After year or so jackson SHOWS results some
of which are as follows:
Municipal officers taken out of politics.
All city purchasing is placed in the hands of
one agent.
Three hundred and eighty-three thousand dol
lars worth of property illegally exempted from
taxation was returned to the rolls.
All cash discounts are taken.
Sanitary inspection made efficient. rigid
milk inspection inaugurated, and tuberculosis
hospital equipped.
The waste of hundreds of thousands OF gallons
