43. Should a further accident occur to an employe already receiving
payment under this article for a disability, or who has been previously
the recipient of a lump sum payment under this article, his future com-
pensation shall be adjusted according to the other provisions of this
article and with regard to the combined effect of his injuries and his
past receipt of compensation under this article. In case of the remar-
riage of a dependent widow of a deceased employe without dependent
children, all compensation under this article shall cease, and further
no widow or widower shall receive any benefits under this article where
the marriage shall have taken place after the person entitled to benefits
hereunder shall have been injured, provided there are no dependent
children.
If aggravation, diminution or termination of disability takes place or
be discovered after the rate of compensation shall have been established
or compensation terminated in any case, the Commission may, upon
the application of any party in interest or upon its own motion, read-
just for future application the rate of compensation in accordance with
rules in this Section provided, or in a proper case, terminate the pay-
ments.
A husband or wife of an injured employe, who has deserted said
employe for more than one year prior to the time of the injury or sub-

ploye without dependent children, all compensation under this article

case to exceed twenty-four hundred dollars by paying a sum equal to
three-fourths of the then value of such payments.

tention of his employer to produce such injury or death, the employe,
