most everybody iii his section as a
man OF uhquestloncd honesty and In.
tegrity, IS enthusiastic in his praise Of
Tanlac' lhe medicine that is accom-
plishlns such remarkable results
throughout the South.
Mr.. Lewis came in Jacobs Pharm-
acy, Memphis, Tenn, recently, for two
more aetIcs of Tanlac, and in con-
versatlon with DR.. e. b. Elder the
Tanlac representative, said:
T'm convinced from the great bene-
fits my vie and myself and many of
our frlefds have obtained from the
use Of hnlac, that it is without an
equal. Mrs. Lewis suffered for ten
long yeas and found nothing in all
that time that would even give her
temporal! relief. In fact, her condi-
ton kept getting worse until she be-
gan taking Tanlac. She couldn't d.
gest anything she would eat and the
gas forming on her stomach caused
severe pans in her chest and short
ness Of brath and at times it seemed
that her breath had stopped entirely.
She suffered about all the pain and
distress Indigestion can cause and
was so nervous she could sleep but
little Finally she became SO weak
and rundown she just had to give up
and quit tying to do anything at all.
"She hal about lost faith in all
medicines, as she had tried so many
and got NJ relief. But after reading
and hearing SO many good things
about Tanac she asked met to get it.
We both sarted taking it at the same
time and We have had the most graft
flying resuls. Mrs. Lewis can now eat
and enjoy her food for the first time
IN many day, and she has no gas on
! her stoma:h or shortness of breath.
SIC is not nervous now and her sleep
is sound and refreshing, and she is
Ikea different woman.
suffeled with billousaess and
mahra and two bottles of Tanlac

and void like for some arrange

The decision follows: ....
"On April 10, 1916. Eugene c. judi

an injury to the right eye which ne

1.-The fact that he was led from the
mill by his fellow workmen might or
might not have accounted for blind
ness in the remaining eye at the time
as the injury was causing great pain
and the happenings Immediately fol-
lowing the injury were only natural.
THE contention of the respondents
is that the left eye was past its use

applicant claims that he could see with
the left eye prior to losing the right.
but admits that he had never tried
the eye alone or by closing, the right
eye. The wife had no knowledge that
the left eye had lost it's usefulness,
and the oculist who had fitted this man
with glasses had never told either his
wife or husband of this fact, If such it
were. No -oculist was present to give
evidence at the hearing, but il was
agreed that affidavits would be sub-

been able to read ordinary type since

the applicant compensation of $S.65 per
week from April Is to May %. 1916,
and that compensation equal to one
half the difference of former wage and
earnings of employee continue from
May % until partial disability has
ceased.
In this case the employee was en-
gagged in the cutting of paving blocks
and used breaking hammer weighing

his former wage at piece work or cut

The respondent denies liability of COM
pensation on the ground that injury
did not arise out of and in the course
of employment.
The decision handed down Tuesday
states that 1t makes no difference in
the opinion of the chairman whether
infection starts from a blister, scratch
or from metal becoming lodged in the
flesh. or whether the blister was one
minute or one day in forming. The
decision continues:
There is no evidence that the en-
ployee knew that a blister was form
ing upon his hand. and it is common
knowledge that it is very seldom that
a man working at hard labor ever
knows that blister is forming until II
has fully developed or has burst by
pressure from the tool or implement
with which he may be working, The
fact that the period of formation is not
instantaneous as would have been the
case of a burn should not deprive this
employee of compensation because he
did not get similar injury in a differ.
