varying physiological conditions should lie experimented upon, 

 while especial care should be taken to correlate the different 

 effects produced on the metabolic activity of the entire organism. 

 The author wishes to express her gratitude to Dr. Florence 

 Peebles for her helpful supervision of the investigations.
