Tlu: < I'iil, in , nj'fln experiments hern reported. — Although the present experiments were not 

 planned for the study of these particular questions, they throw some light upon them. The 

 details, in their bearing upon the protection or nonprotection of body protein and fat. an' brought 

 together in Table CXX in the appendix, and the average results are summarized in Table 11 here- 

 with, which shows the amounts of available protein and energy of the diet and the amounts of 

 protein and fat gained or lost by the body in the experiments with and without alcohol.

" When two ,ir more similar experiments are grouped together, the group is counted as 1 experiment in draw ing 

 the average, experiments thus treated are put in parenthesis in the second column; thus, I 15 to 17). 



The grouping in Table 14 i- on the same basis as in the corresponding tables in the preceding 

 pages and in the Appendix.
