Ultimate Sophistication Reached

Everyday Law Cases
Is Employe Receiving Share.
Of Profits O Pdrtner?.
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

When the Star Dry Goods Co. went
out of business, John Brooks not only
lost a good job. but he found himself
besieged by creditors Of the concern,
who demanded from him payment OF
their accounts. They based their
claim against him, they stated, on the
ground that he had a share in the
profits of the company, and was
therefore a partner
A person. they claimed, cannot share
in the profits of business without
assuming and sharing in the losses.
John Brooks was uncertain about
his liability. He had been employed
by the Star Co. at $4,000 a year, with
10 per cent Of the profits of the bust
ness above $4,000. His share of the
profits in the first four years amount
ed to SO 900 year. The fifth year he
received no extra compensation. as no
profits had been made, and in the
middle of the sixth year the company
went out Of business.
The creditors brought suit against
him, as they had threatened, but the
court dismissed their case, and held
that Brooks was not partner on the
following rule:
while sharing of profits raises a
presumption of partnership, the mere
fact that an employee receives a share
of the profits as compensation for his
services does not change the relation
Of master or servant between them so
as to constitute him a partner, and
therefore he is not liable for the COM
pany's debts"

But when she had gone out into the

not make you fat. Omit sugar, and all
oily foods, and limit the starchy ones,

so much of other foods, but take glu.
ten or graham bread instead of that
made from white flour.
II you lose pound or two a week
it will be enough, and that may be
done without much sacrifice in your
diet.

Curative Electricity.

X-rays are probably the Most Ger.
tain way of curing ringworm, espe.
cially when II affects the hair. The
treatment is curious, for a light
colored pastille is placed in the course
of the rays as the skin Is being
treated. When this has turned q Ger.
tain shade Of brown the exposure has
been sufficient and the treatment Is
done. However, in two or three
weeks the hair falls, leaving the spot
quite bald. 1t is treated with ONT.
ments and in couple of months
healthy new hair appears.
X.rays are magical in treating
favus, the rays being used after the
crusts have been removed with po0i,
tees. TheHe wassa1most an epidemic
of this in London q few. years ago
after lot Of refugees from Poland
and Russia poured in. The X-ray
treatment stamped 1t out. X.rays are
also used in such skin troubles as
lupus or Bazin's disease, both forms
of tuberculosis of the skin.
The rays have also been used TO kill
hair where 1t is not wanted and to
make it grow where it Is. In cases
of badness IL is SUCCESSFUL IL short
downy hair still grows on the scalp.
If the treatment is properly given

but in six or eight weeks the new and
stronger growth appears.
In cases Of profuse perspiration with
an offensive odor, a condition called
hyperidrosiS, exposure to X-ray will
stop this great activity of the sweat
glands for a time, to the great relief
of the sufferer. X.ray treatment will
also cure any itching skin, certain
growths of warts on the skin, also
that curious, unpleasant.looking red
overgrowth which makes an otherwise
permanent scar on the skin and which
frequently follows burns and wounds.

A good drink
for the
children
because it is
pure

CANADA DRY" is an especially good drink to
serve freely to the children because of its purity
and quality and because it is made from the
highest grade Jamaica ginger.
That is an important point to remember be-
cause many cheap ginger ales do not contain
any ginger whatsoever, but are made with cap
sicum (red pepper.
Naturally they do not have-they just can't
have-the same delicate flavor as Canada
Dry" nor are they as genuinely good for you.
Proof of the outstanding quality of Canada
Dry is found in the fact that it is served in the
great hospitals in Canada and in this country.
There u.s. indeed, no beverage in all the world
that is made with more exacting care than Can
ada Dry" 1t is so different from the ordinary
ginger ale that it might almost be called by
another name.
