THE leadership of Samuel Adams was
itself a sign OF the times.
He was a man of the people, pas
sionate In his assertion OF rights, and
likely to stir and increase passion IN
those for whom he spoke. Subtle
born politician; bold, q born leader OF
men, in assembly OF in the street, ne
was the sort of man and orator whose
ascendency may mean revolution almost
when he chooses.
The assembly. at his suggestion, went
beyond the ordinary bounds OF protest
and sent a circular letter to the other
colonies, as If to invite comparison OF
views and a general acquiescence in the
course OF settled exposition IL had itself
adopted.
When the ministers in London demand
ed a withdrawal of the letter, the as
sembly of course refused and the other
colonies. were more than ever inclined
to stand by the stout Bay Colony al
whose capital port the fight centered.
The ministers, in their desperate pur-
pose to compel submission. declared their
intention to remove to England for trial
any one who should be charged with
treason-under an almost forgotten
statute passed long before jamestown
was settled or English colonies dreamed
OF in America.
That reused the virginian House OF
Burgesses once more.
They declared. with a sort of quiet
passion, in their session of 1863, that nc
one but their own assemblies had a Fighi
to tax the colonies: that they had the
inalienable right to petition the govern
ment at home upon any matter of griev.
anee whatever. and to petition. if they
pleased, jointly. as a body of colonies
united in right and interest and tina

anywhere except in the courts of hi'

was highly derogatory of the right o.
British subjects" and not for nomen
to be deemed within the lawful power o.
the crown.
There was no need this time' for Mr.
Henry. All men were now of the SAM
opinion in Virginia, and the action wa
unanimous.

The Common
Wasl1rag Dangerous.

The United States Public Health
Service and the various state and lo-
cal boards of health have taken ade-
uuate measures for the abolition of
that distributor of disease germs, the
common towel. Now comes the news
that the common washrag is even a
greater menace to health. The hotels
and public hostelries have recognized
this for some time, and have supplied
their guests with sterilized wash
cloths in individual sealed packets.
The damp "sour" smelling washrag
still exists, however, in many private
bath rooms. Imperfectly washed out

quently the same wsshrag is used by

easy means of transference of mouth

many households each individual has
his own wash cloth and mis- individual

another that there is ready inter

Constantinople, Aug. Pet is well
these days in Turkey TO heed the law,
especially military law. Europeans
who have lived in Turkey long either
fear or respect Turkish law and court
procedure. Most of them feared it
in the past and fear it today, because
the abolition of the capitulations has
made foreigners amenable to the
Turkish law and courts, and neither

Street Urchin
Has Improved
His Appearance
By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, Aug. 29.-According to
London police officials, war has been
responsible for q marked improve
ment in the appearance Of the Lon
don street urcfin. Never before, it
is said, has the average boy on the
London streets been so we'll clad as
today.
This is attributed largely to the
separation allowance received by the
wives of soldiers at the front, and
also to the fact that most employers
have found it necessary to put their
boy employees into uniform in order
to keep them, so great is the popu-
larity of the uniform, whether mill
tary or civil.

Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy.

Few medicines have met with more
favor or accomplished more good than
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. From a small
beginning its sale and use has ex-
tended to all parts of the United
States and to many foreign coun-
tries. Everywhere it has received I'M
stinted praise. We confidently be-
lieve that it has relieved more pain
and suffering and saved the lives of
more people than any other one
preparation in use. One or two doses
of it is enough to relieve an ordinary
attack of collie or diarrhoea. It has
been used in many epidenlics of dys-
entery with perfect success. 1t is
especially valuable for summer diar-
rhoeas in children. Every family
should keep it at hand as attacks Of
cholera morbus often result fatally
before medicine can be procured or a
physician summoned. Obtainablc
