Kresge Bldg (Official City, State and Coun’y Newspaper) HAD THE COLONISTS WAITED There is sometihing interesting, somehow, in the news that the British government has at last abolished the tax on tea. Not that that will make any difference to tea drinkers on this side of the Atlantic. But the tax is blood-brother to another tax on tea, which caused a ship load of that commodity to be tossed into Boston harbor, upwards of a century and a half ago; and surely we can be par- doned for feeling a sort of proprietary interest in it. Perhaps this development is proof, after all, that the early colonists were a trifle hasty.

Sensible people, they imply, would hardly have gon to war over such things. These things, however, did not cause the revolution. They simply served as symbols through which the in- artisulate aspirations of the dwellers in the American wildern::. could find a voice. ‘That is the way. things always happen. Whenever some cr tic ever: takes place in the midst of high emotions and smouldering grievances, you can look out for an explosion.

Yet it -:2rved 20,000,000 Frenchmen for the great struggle of the revolution and worked a change in Europe that is not over yet. John Brown, likewise, was a half-brained old fanatic and a crank. Yet the Civi: War might well have ended differentl; if his dramatic exploit and hanging had not been before the eyes of the people of the north. !

I you have tuberculosis, your cough has already decreased, and less pus is being brought up as all other parts of the body are eliminating toxins more rapidly. If you have been suf- fering from rheumatism, there will be less pain in the affected parts. If you have been wheezing with asthma, your heavy breathing has already stopped, owing to the reduction in gas pressure, and the elimination of heavy meals which have formerly in- terfered with the breathing muscles. If you have formerly felt “all tired out,” you are now surprised that on such @ light diet you have more energy than before. This is because the body is less toxic, and you are not using egg digest food. No matter what trouble you may have suffring from, every func- tion of your body is now working overtime to produce more elimination and to effect a successful bodily housecleaning.
