ages given in court. It is proven by
statistics that one family in eight get
a settlement for damages; the law
contemplates that every person shall
have something.
1t is provided that the injured party
shall have medical attention and hos
pitalization for two weeks free. It is
not decided whether the company
shall furnish the doctor at the exclu-
sion of the choice of the individual or
the family. Since the companies US
ually have contracts there will no
doubt be some attempts at coercion,
since the man is going to favor the
person he works for. The employer
has the right to send in physician
to- ascertain the true state of affairs
and to prevent malingering, as there
will be an attempt, on the part of
some individuals, to get half pay un-
til the end of the forty week period.
One of the important clauses pro-
vides that no accident will be paid
where intoxication or partial intoxica-
ton can be attributed to the cause.
This puts the drinker at decided
disadvantage. In the first place men
will not want to hire drinkers; in the
second, if a man have the reputation
of drinking, will it not rather put him
to the trouble to prove that he was
sober? j.. ,. s*E.- r. 80.
Humane as the law appears, will it
not have the tendency to put a
premium on young men who can bet
ter protect themselves from accidents
at the expense Of old men who still
have something to do? Will it not
rather make the single man a pre-
ferable employe, since he has fewer
dependents? All these changes affect
US as members of society in the long
run. It is coming to a question of
the employer seeking the best man
for the place, one who will by his

clear judgment and good habits make
the safest risk. All these things point
to the realm Of preventive medicine.
A man needs good eyes, keen eyes,
an alert brain, a strong body that is
properly rested at night and not less
active on account Of the previous
nights dissipation. Men are going to
become more interested in their en-
ployes' mode of living than ever, for
it is matter of dollars and cents to
them. F. .-~
Read the law and. then get some
lawyer to tell you about, it, so that
you know your status; it will be a
two dollars well spent; then when
you are hurt you will know what to
do and what to expect. To be fore
warned is to be forearmed. -
