ALBERT C. RITCHIE, GOVERNOR. 773


in the discretion of the Commission, for not less than ten

weeks nor more than one hundred weeks, as the Commission
may fix, in each case having due regard to the character of
the mutilation and disfigurement as compared with mutilation
and injury hereinbefore specifically provided for.

(4) Temporary partial disability. In case of temporary
partial disability, except the particular cases mentioned in
Subdivision Three of this Section, an injured employee shall
receive fifty per centum of the difference between his average
weekly wages and his wage-earning capacity thereafter in the
same employment or otherwise, if less than before the accident,
but not to exceed ($18.00) eighteen dollars per week, during
the continuance of such partial disability, but not in excess of
three thousand five hundred dollars, except as otherwise pro-
vided in this Article.

In case the injury causes death within the period of three
years the benefits shall be in the amounts and to the persons
following:

If there be no dependents, the disbursements shall be lim-

If there are wholly dependent persons at the time of death,
the payment shall be sixty-six and two-thirds per cent of
the average weekly wages, not to exceed, however, a maximum,
of eighteen dollars per week, and not less than a minimum
of ($8) eight dollars per week, unless the deceased employee's
established weekly wages were less than eight dollars per week
at the time of injury, in which event the compensation shall
be an amount equal to the average weekly wages, and to con-
tinue for the remainder of the period between the date of
death and four hundred and sixteen weeks after the date of
injury, and not to amount to more than a maximum of five
thousand dollars, nor less than a minimum of one thousand
dollars.

If there are no wholly dependent persons at the time of
the death, but are partly dependent persons, those partly de--
pendent shall receive compensation as follows: The weekly
payments to such dependents shall be in an amount not ex-

weekly wages or ($18.00) eighteen dollars per week, but may,
in the discretion of the Commission, be for a less amount per
week and to continue for all or such portion of the period of
416 weeks, after the date of the injury, as the Commission
