COMPENSATION LAW CHANGES Include Exemption of Employers of Less Than Five—No Compensation Without More Than Ten Days’ In- capacity. In the proposed amendment to the workmen’s compensation bill, farovably reported in the house by the judiciary committee, the exemption of emplovers of less than flve persons from the operation of the law effected in the first portion o fthe amendment offered. Section 1 of the amendment pro- vides that sectign 2, of part B, of the 1913 law be amended to read as follows: “All contracts to employ- ment between an employer and em- ploye, as these terms are de- those made between an employer those bade between an employer having regularly less than five em- ployes and such employes, whether made before the date of this act and continued in force after said date, shall be conclusively presumed to include a mutual agreement between employer and employe to . accept part B of said act as amended, and they become bound thereby, unless either party refuses to accept tl provisions of part B as amended.” It is further provided in the first section that none of part B terms shall apply to an employer having part regularly less than five employes unless the employer accepts that part, becomes bound by it, and so notifles the commissioner of his dis- trict. Three exceptions to this part of the section are, however, when the employer may accept by giving notice, if the emplover accepts, the employe is deemed to have accept- ed, and the employer may at any time withdraw his original accept- ance by giving proper notice. Section 2 of the amendment changes section 6 of part B of the act by providing that the payment of compensation to an injured em- ploye shall not affect the rights of the employer to recover from an- other person the amount of compen- sation or damages due. Section 8 In substance provides that the injured employe must notify the employer. of injury, and on failure to do so, the commissioner may reduce the award of compensation proportion- ately. Seamen are covered in this section, and provisions made for their care in hospitals under the federal marine laws. Section 4 changes section 8 of the law so that no compensation is pay- able unless the injury incapacitates the employe for more than ten days from earning full wages; and on the cleventh day, compensation begins to accrue. ~ Section 5 refers to death reculting from injury within twe years, in which case $100 shall be payable for burial expenses and to dependents, one half the average weekly earnings of the injured em- ploye and proportionately to par- tial dependents. Section 6 deflnes total and partial dependents. Sec- tion 7 grants for total incapacity one-hall the average weekly wage, not to exceed $10 a week, nor be less than $5. ‘What an eye or a leg, finger, thumb, or ear is worth is de- termined by section 8, and this section provides that any voluntary agreement concerning compensation between employer and employe may be subject to modification by the commissioner by reason of changed conditions of fact. Section 10 relates to officers of the commissioners, and provides that the Second district commissioner have his office in Norwich. Section 11 pro- vides the $4,000 annual salary for the commissioners, and gives each $3,000 expenses a year. Section 12 deals with reports of accidents to tl ccmmissioners, who shall send therh on to the factory inspector. Sectio 13 declares that a claim for com- pensation must be filed within a year of the date of the accident, and the other 11 sections of the amendment are not_ especially inter- esting, except sections 21, which defines ‘“employer” and ‘“emplo; and says that an employe is an outworker or a casual worker, o a persor who is of the e'mmoyer?ré family and dwelling in his house.

To Put On Flesh | And Increase Weight A Physician’s Advice Most thin people eat from four to six. pounds of good solid fat-making food every day, and still do not increase in weight one ounce, while on the other hand many of the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly and keep gaining all the time. It's all bosh to say that this) is the nature of the individual. I isn’t Nature's way at all. Thin folks stay thin because; thels wers of assimilation are defective. ey absorb just enough of the food they eah to maintain life and a sem. blance 8% health and strength. Stuffing] won’t help them. A dozen meals a dajyf won't make them gain a single “sta; there” pound. All the fat-producing ele: ments of their food just stay in the in testines until they pass from the body as waste. hat such people need is something that will prepare these fatty food elements o that their blood can’ absorb them and deposit them ali about the body—something, too. will multiply their red blood corpuscles and lincrease their blood's carrying power. ¢ For such a condition I always rec- ommend eating a Sargol tablet with, every meal, Sargol is not, as some be- leve, a patented drug, but is a scien tific_combination of six of the mosf] effective and powerful flesh buildi elements known to chemistry. It i absolutely harmless, yet wonderfull effective and a single tablet eaten with each meal often has the effect of creasing the weight of a thin man from three to five pounds weight increase or money back.
