In several villages Of Finland the woman
has authority, for religious sect exists there
whose disciples are forced to marry and to
take a vow to submit to the wife in all things.
The women choose one of their number for

the men behave themselves, and to punish
them II they transgress. Similar are the
"Purifoants" Of Liberia, who also recognize

THE vIADUCT ORDINANCE.
Changes of Procedure That Have
Taken Place Since It Was Passed.

Taken Place Since It Was Passed.
The Supreme court has decided that
the viaduct ordinance passed year
and half ago is legal and binding,
but no definite action looking toward
the erection Of the viaduct will be
taken at once.
The ordinance directs the city clerk
to advertise for bids for the construc-
ton Of the viaduct Immediately after
it's passage. City Clerk Lavelle said
yesterday that he has given the mat
ter no consideration as yet but it is
probable that he will consult the re-
corder before doing anything. The lat
ter is expected home from Virginia
today.
The ordinance now declared legal
was framed when Scranton was oper-
ating under third class city laws and
complications may result in this par
ticular. 1t provides that the bids for
the construction Of the viaduct shall
he received and opened and the con-
tract awarded by councils. The "trip
per" bill took the awarding of con-
tracts entirely out of the hands of
councils and vested 1t solely in the re-
corder and head Of the proper depart
ment.
The ordinance in question provides
for the construction of a viaduct from
curb to curb on West Lackawanna
avenue between Seventh and Ninth
streets, the cost of construction to be
borne jointly by the Scranton railway
and Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern companies, the city to pay all re-
sultant damages.

swarthmore College, swarthmore,
Penna

This institution was founded by the
Society of Friends, and has always
been conducted with view to promot-
ing the principles for which that re-
liglous body stands. It's work, how
ever, Is by no means sectarian but is
intended to promote, in the highest de-
gree, that sense of individual RESPONSE
bility which makes for true manhood
or womanhood. Having no desire to
make it anything but Small COL
lege," its management has been able
to maintain that intimacy of contact
between professor and student which
is rarely possible in a great university
and which is probably the greatest
force In any institution tending to the
development of character. The situa.
tion of the college helps in the same
direction. Beautifully located, sur
rounded by two hundred acres Of lawn
and grove, 1t overlooks superb stretch
of country extending away to the Della
ware, while clustered about the camp
us Is the village, occupied largely by
families connected in one way or an
other with the interests of the college,
and by the elevation of it's moral tone
presenting a strong contrast to the
communities in which some less Ia
vored institutions are placed. Still an
other assistance in the maintenance of
healthy college life Is the natural
grouping of young men and women,
under the same roof, maintaining as

nearly as possible the conditions which
obtain in cultivated home, and free
from the unnatural elements. which so
frequently make college life destruc-
tive of the finer traits of character.
Each of the four courses of study Of
fered by the college provides liberal
range of electives, and whether one
enters classics, letters. science or en-
gineering, he cannot receive the
Swarthmore diploma without having
achieved a liberal education. Then
there is intelligent physical training.
The college has not only maintained
an excellent record in competitive ath-
letics, but has given careful study to
the problem of building up, in the best
possible manner, the bodily vigor OF
each individual student. This has
given Swarthmore a remarkable health
record, and, what is still better, has in
frequent instances rescued from dan
ger young men and women about
whose future health and strength there
was just cause for concern. There
may be better places for young people
who merely want the fame of "going
through" college. Swarthrlore is for
earnest people, with the serious pur-
pose to make the most of life. ~

The MODEL RAILROAD,
Party of Newspaper Men Enjoyed a
Ride Over It to New York
and Return.

That the Jersey Central, since its in
| corporation as part of the Reading sys-
tenn, intends to enter into more active
competition than in the past for busi-
ness In all the communities that It
serves was plainly and forcefully stated
In an address made by General Man.
ager w. G. Besler Thursday afternoon
in the cabin Of the steamer Sandy Hook,
to party of newspaper workers en-
1oying a days pleasant outing as the
guests of that company.
Mr.. Besler said that the new manage
ment had adopted as its motto: "The
Jersey Central, the model railroad" and
would proceed as soon as possible to
make that motto a recognized fact. AS
token of good faith, the statement
may be added that new passenger
coaches of handsome design and spaci-
Gus accommodation have been ordered
and an overhauling Of the entire motive
power and rolling stock begun. "a
pleased patron the best advertisement"
was Mr.. Besler's way Of emphasizing
the company's purpose.
The eXcursionists to whom these re-
marks were addressed had left Scran-
ton in special train at Z o'clock on
Thursday morning, and they returned
shortly after midnight yesterday morn
ing after delightful run to Jersey
City, whence ferry had taken them to
Pier on the Manhattan side, and a
ride enjoyed down the bay to Atlantic
Highlands. The guests included repre-
sentatives of the newspapers along the
line, with sisters, sweethearts and
wives, and their comfort was gener.
ously ministered to by General Super
intendent w. c. Huntington, whose pri-
vate car had been attached to the spe-
cial as an observation car for the ladies';
General Passenger Agent c. M. Burt
and his assistant, Mr.. Hope, and Dis
trict Passenger Agent ]. S. Swisher.
Dinner was served on the Sandy Hook
during the outward voyage and supper
at the station restaurant at Allentown.
General Manager Besler was asked by
a Tribune reporter what plans he had
In view for the upbuilding OF passenger
and freight traffic in the Scranton dis
trict. While not caring to disclose these
in detail, he said that If first-class SER
vice and the most modern equipment
could influence business the road would
surely get an increased share of it. The
new Quaker city express, he said, has
more than fulfilled expectations and a
new and greatly improved schedule for
local and New York traffic is among the
early possibilities.
Accompanying the party on the boat
was Mr.. Besler's father, general man
ager of the c. B. & q. railroad.

The Great rledicine Cures
Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Neph.
ritis and AIbuminurla.

Thousands of people suffer through
living death from some form Of kid
ney disease. In the majority of cases,
the poor sufferers have been informed
by physicians that there Is no hope.
If you are a victim of kidney dis
ease. take courage, dear sufferer!
There is a mighty saving agent that
you have not yet called to your aid;
1t is Paine's Celery Compound. This
grand medical prescription has con-
quered as desperate cases as yours; 1t
has power to pluck you as brand
from the burning, If you have but the
faith to give 1t a trial.
You may perchance ask, "What will
Paine's Celery Compound do for me,
that other medicines have failed to ac-
complish?"
Paines Celery Compound will ac-
complish vastly more for you in your
distress than you can imagine. Its
first great vital undertaking Is the pur-
iflcation Of the life stream from waste
matter, the result of decomposition of
the tissues. 1t will remove all morbid
materials, saving you from uraemic
poisoning, which SO often proves fatal
in kidney disease.
In addition to all this, Paine's Gel
cry Compound will establish nerve
force and new nerve fibre; 1t will
nourish the weakened system and re-
store the full vital functions of the
kidneys.
If you value life, delay not the use Of
Paine's Celery Compound a single hour.
Your present critical condition de-
mands the immediate use Of this great
life saver.
Emma Doty, of Red Buttes, Wyo,
saved by Paine's Celery Compound
from fatal kidney disease, writes as
follows: II had a terrible pain in my
side owing to kidney troubles. could
hardly lie down; but the trouble has
all left me through the use Of Paine's
