Japanese Marriage Laws.

Harper's Weekly.
Although Japan has revealed her
self as highly enlightened in so many
spheres of civilization, she has not
yet applied refornlatory principles TO
the institution of marriage.
There is as yet no such thing in
Japan as equality between the sexes.
The law relating to marriage recog-
nizes no wrongs except on the part
of the wife, from whom the husband
NAV obtain a divorce by merely as
serting that he is tired Of her, or upon
any of the following grounds:
Disobedience, adultery, barrenness,
jealousy, physical antipatfy, talka-
tiveness or theft
When a girl is about to marry, her
mother impresses upon her various
rules of conduct to be followed dur
inc her welded life. Some of these
are:
"Be always amiable to your mother
in law and father-ir-law.
"Don't talk too much.
Get up early, go to bed late and
never sleep in the afternoon.
"Until you are fifty, never mix in
crowds.
DO not consult fortune tellers.
do not wear light clothes.
Never allow yourself to be jealous
Even if your husband is in the
wrong never get angry.
"Never speak evil OF your neigh
bors.

The Hadley Show.

An appreciative audience greeted
the Edwin J. Hadley moving pic
ture show Wednesday evening, and
it is safe TO say that the highest ex-
pecta:ions concerning the entertain
ment were justified. The program
was entirely new and so varied that
there was not the least trace of
monotony. 1t would be difficult to
say what pictures were the best,
they were all good, and the whole
entertainment was the most STU
pendous exhibition of motion views
and skilled presentation that has
ever been witnessed in Bloomsbury.
The descent of the curtain at the
close of the show carried with it
conviction that the Hadley show is
leader, and far ahead of its COM
petitors.

No Trouble for Normal.

Normal had no trouble in get
ting away with Scranton of the
New York State League in the
opening game of the season on
Normal Field yesterday afternoon
The playing~ Of the Normal boys
surprised the visitors and their
base running was revelation to
everyone. But the one bright par
ticular star was Lynch. His strong
right arm was in evidence, and it
was the one all important factor in
landing the victory. In the first
inning he retired the side on eight
pitched balls, two tracturing the
air and the other going out OH a
little in6eld hit.
The weather kept many away
but still the attendance was quite
good. DR.. Cressinger of Sunbury
officiated as umpire, and his work
was fair and impartial. The score

Boards As Real Germ Nests.
Allegheny Health Official Explains That IT,.
No Joke.

A Pittsburg dispatch says: When
the order was issued several weeks
ago to the effect that the long boards
worn by many Allegheny citizens
would have to be cleansed, as they
were excellent propagating grounds
for scarlet fever germs, it was look
ed upon in the nature of joke by
beardless men and as an insult by
those who wear boards. In this
connection, however Captain James
Mclaughlin, of the Allegheny
Bureau of Health, says:
The matter was neither intend,
ed as all insult nor a joke. 1t is a
fact that great number Of cases ot
scarlet fever last summer were
found in families where one or more
of the members wore boards. II
was therefore decided that this class
of people must keeq their beard:
- well their places of abode
clean"

Divorce Not an Evil.

Women From Brutal Masters.

Over the bitter protest of Miss
Susan B. Anthony, the National
Council of Women on Friday adopt
ed resolution pledging the organ
ization to cooperate with church
and state to ascertain what are the
chief causes which induce or lead
up to divorce. Divorce, the resolu-
tion recites, is known to cause most
disastrous results in the state and
family.
a" do not consider divorce an
evil by any MEANS" asserted Miss
Anthony before the reading of the
resolution had been completed. "It
is just as much refuge for women
married to brutal men as Canada
was once refuge from brutal mas
ters. l will never vote for a resolu.
tion that will cut off women from
refuge from designing and bruta,

Oerebro-Spinal Meningitis,
Leading Medical Men Say the Disease is in
Some Manner Communicable.

The mysterious disease Of menin-
gifts that has been puzzling the
people, and some of the physicians,
the past few months is now on the
decline. The New York World in
commenting upon the ravages Of
the disease says:
"Cerebro spinal meningitis is an
imperfectly understood inflsmma-
tion of the membranes enveloping
the brain and the spinal marrow.
II is most to be feared in poor and
closely crowded quarters of the great
cities, yet in rural Silesia it has been
SO severe that the peasants have
fed from its ravages, and in New
York a railroad president has died
of it in a fashionable hote'. 1t is
veiy sudden in its attack and causes
excessive suffering. New York
will not soon forget the description
of the agonies suffered by a poor
girl who had contracted meningitis
and was wrongfully put in a cell
for alcoholism. The disease is doubt
less in some manner communicable.
Half a century ago cerebro-
spinal meningitis was as little
known by name as appendicitis,
though as spotted fever" it had
done some execution. 1t appears to
be at its worst at the end of cold
winter, when the general average of
vitality is at low ebb. AT present
Boston and New York are troubled
by the disease, but Our southern
cities, with their milder climate
have little complaint to make of it.
1.-The medical profession is
thoroughly aroused to the danger
of meningitis and diligently seeking
remedies. A cure as successful as
the fresh air treatment has proved
in consumption or the antitoxin in
diphtheria would be invaluable.
