Owing to the difficulties placed in the way of the printing trades 

 by war conditions, The Journal of General Physiology desires to 

 cooperate with the printer by eliminating unnecessary labor in 

 the setting up of manuscripts. To accomplish this object, parts 

 of the papers to be printed in different styles of type should be 

 separated in the manuscript. For example, every experiment, 

 table, or quotation of over five lines should begin on a new 

 sheet. When the text is resumed, a fresh sheet should be 

 started. Separate sheets should be used for the running head- 

 lines, title, author, foot-notes, and bibhography. The name of 

 the laboratory where the work was done together with the 

 words, "(Received for pubhcation, , 1918)," should 



also be written on a separate sheet. 



The entire manuscript should be copied with triple spacing. 



In general the forms for headings, tables, references, etc., 

 outlined in the "Suggestions for the preparation of manu- 

 scripts," issued by the Pubhcation Department, should be 

 followed. A copy of the "Suggestions" will be found on the 

 back pages of the 25-VoIume Index of The Journal of Biological 

 Chemistry. We are glad to mail additional copies to contributors. 



The Journal requests that, when possible, authors prepare 

 their manuscripts in conformity with these suggestions.
