I closed the door of DIR. Certeis'
room behind me to keep out the
smoke which was thickening in the
hall. Tho flremen had included the
room in their patrol and had left the
lights turned on. 1t was a most re-
vealing room. l thought as / crossed
its threshold, rather reluctantly, in
the way a woman always enters the
room of a man who is not her hus-
band, son OF brother.
Certeis' private suite certainly be-
trayed the man as / knew him-ele-
CANT, selfish and reserved. The apart
ment had been decorated to harmon
ize with some superb blue and yellow
Chinese rugs-antique treasures
whose cost would run well into six
figures.
Only one who loved beauty intense
ly and for its own sake, and only a
very selfish creature. would use such
rugs as common floor coverings. They
were what is known as museum
pieces" 49,,
Were Certeis to care intensely for
a beautiful woman, he might treat
her exactly as he treats these rare
rugs" I said to myself, he might
shut her away from the world-for-
ever"
Finishing my rapid survey of the
place, II occurred to me nat nothing
had been permitted TO Interfere with
the glory OF the rugs. There wasn't
a picture on the walls, no design any,
where to spoil the design of, the car
pets. Their was, however, a photo

see what kind of art Certeis kept at
his bedside proved too much for me.
I picked up the frail hand-carved
frame. turned it toward the light and
beheld-a picture of myself! 1t wa
q very good one. I had given it to
him in the days of his ardent wooing.

gave me such a clear glimpse of a
heart tragedy. Other men got over
their love affairs. Why couldn't Tony?
One would think he would not great
He was so sophisticated-and so

After Influenza What Then?

After this Spanish influenza has swept
the country almost like the black death"
did in Europe in the Fourteenth Cen
fury, after the storm has passed, we are
confronted by the wrecks of men and
women who have been left in a
weakened condition, with pale faces and
feelings of general lassitude and weak
ness. 1t is a fact to be borne in mind
that the effort on the part of nature to
throw off the poisons during the attack
of Spanish influenza results sometimes in
nephritis, or inflammation of the kidneys.
In view of the seriousness of this dis
ease as a result of toxemia, it is most
essential that treatment be directed to-
wards prompt elimination of the toxins
(poisons) from the body. This means that
the excretory organs the bowels, skin
and kidneys should be excited to their
best efforts to throw off the poisons.

PENNA MANUAL

The Delaware Industrial Accident
Board walch administers the Work
mems Compensation asst at a recent
meeting decided 10 request the Della
ware Rating and Inspection Bureau III
formulating a system Of applying eA-
perience rating 10 Delaware risks dur
ing the year 1920.
As a result Of This request, The Della
ware Compensation Rating and IN
spectlon Bureau has agreed as follows :
i.-Rales TO be eighty-1ve per cent.
Of the rates in the new pennsylVan' "a
Manual 20 be effective midnight De-
cember 81. 1919
3.-Adoptlon OF the Pennsylvania
schedule rating plan, effective midnight
December 81. 1919.
3.-The Pennsylvania experience rat
ing system. TO become effective mid
night. December 81, 1919, with an eX-
perience period Of eighteen months for
an pollcies expiring on or before March
81, 1920. and an experience period OF
two full policy years for policies eN-
piring later that that date.
The Industrial Accident1 Board mas
approved the above propositions, ana
makes the following statement
The adoption Of the rate level Of
eighty-nve per cent. Of the Pennsyl-
yania rate level, that IS, eighty-ilve
per cent. Of the present rates on the
average, is quite Important to employ
ers in this state. II is true that some
rates are increased and others decreas-
ed by the additional experience avail
able for making Pennsylvania raies.
Evening journal., 1919-11-25

The average Of the new Pennsylvania
rates, however, is just about the same
for all industries, excepting coal min
ing, that Il has been during the pres
ent year As the present Delaware
rates are those OF the present Pennsyl-
vania Manual, this section is in effect,
a nfteen per cent. decrease Tn Delaware
rates, and will have much broader
effect. in that il applies universally 10
all insurers, whereas experience or
schedule rat ng systems must OF neces-
city, apply 10 larger risks
IN considering the subject OF rates,
u must be borne In mind that the last
Delaware Legislature materially in
crossed the compensation benefits. For
instance. the maximum weekly COM
pensation payable was increased from
ten dollars to fifteen dollars per week.
The compensate period was extend
ed, and the medical and hospital service
was increased from twenty-five to
sevcnty-flve dollars. These increased
In benefits naturally have the effect Of
Increasing the aggregate Of insurance
premiums"
IN conclusion, we desire TO say that
we shall be glad to have employers
consult us as frequently as they may
desire i'm connection with cOmpcnsa-
ton insurance meters. In order that
we may know that their risks are
properly CLASSIFIED and that they are
paying proper Insurance rates"
