SKIN DISEASE IN
COMPENSATION
Important Ruling Made by the
State Board in a Phila-
delphia Appeal

In an opinion rendered by Chair
man Harry A. Mackey, of the State
Workmen's Compensation Board, the
decision of Referee Klauder, of the
Philadelphia district. in allowing COM
pensation to a claimant who was in
fected by handling skins in course of
his employment is upheld. The case is
an unusual one, as Clarence Roller.
the claimant, held that in handling
skins for Drueding Bros, his employ
ers. his hands and right arm became
infected with a skin disease. The ref
cree found that a poisonous substance
called sumac was contained in the
skins.
Mr.. Mackey says in his opinion:
We consider the occurrence as an
accident 1t is sudden in it's action.
1t directly affects the physical It's
sues. It is not the secondary result
of some idiopathic or other disease.
The force which causes the injury,
though a natural one, proceeds from
without and is encountered in the
course of the employees service"
In the course Fof the opinion the
chairman refers to some cases in
which the effect of germs was consid-
cred in ruling on compensation.

Spank Spot That Mother
Did," Edict to Teachers

Washington, Pa. - Spank the spot
that mother used to hit with the old
hickory switch" This in so many
words is the edict issued by the Wash
irgton school board as a result of
numerous complaints of violent and at
times brutal chastising of children in
the schools which have been made by
irate parents.
Heretofore, the directors had only
instructed the teachers as TO the inn
plement they should use. But they
have been welding these so wildly
that the directors have named the one
particular spot on which they are to
cUnfine their attack.

You cannot expect to have
a healthy body if you have
impure blood running in
your veins.
The blood is the great
source of nourishment for all
flesh tissues. When the blood
is not pure it carries poisons
and impurities to all parts of
the body, causing local ills
that cannot be cured until
the blood is purified.
Rheumatism, Catarrh and
Malaria are the direct result
of impurities in the blood.
It shows in such symptoms
as a lack of energy, loss of
appetite, sleeplessness, and
many other little ills that
may become serious if the
cause of them, blood impuri-
ties, is not removed.
Nature has given us the
true remedy for blood dis
orders and their kindred ills,
in the roots and herbs from
which s. S. s. is made.
These ingredients contain
the power to act directly
upon the blood corpuscles,
making them pure and
healthy so they can do their

Everyone appreciates the usefulness
of a silk coat which may be made to
serve for many occasions and emer-
gencies. And everyone will welcome
the newly designed silk coats for
spring whose arrival is hurried to meet
the requirements of southern tourists.
Just now both long and short coats, OF
taffeta and other silks, are among the
most pleasing Of the heralds Of the
new season. They almost divide hon
ors with the beautiful white gowns of
net and lace that hold the center of

A point that is most interesting, in
gerie dress, is that anyone who is
clever enough in handling materials
may aspire to owning them. The ma
terials used for making them are mod

pend for distinction on originality of
design and beauty of workmanship. A
silk Goa may be the most common

and unusual as the model pictured

silk is cut and put together.
The model shown is full, with a long
faring skirt, and is loosely belted
