J--UUi of Boston, who has done such eminent work in alleviating tine condition of diabetes/!** lp article in a recent Alneiiean Medio*! journal in which he t«nw> ifes prevention of the disease. For some time obesity has been assorted wtth the fflsssw, but little has been done to prove this, as the record^ usually not height, weight and age s-> that authentic comparisons could he made! Dr. Jssijri ha?; s-eeently analyzed 1000 cases of which accurate account was kept of height, weight and age. His records Bhow that the smallest, percentage of diabetes occurs in those underweight and incroaaes as the person becomes overweight. He also cites the example of the prevalency of diabetes amoftg the Jewish race, who are regularly over weight. Dr. Joslyn further backs up his argument by the statement that this is the foundation of the modern treatment suggested by Dr. Allen, who has substituted the so called starvation treatment to check the disease. If the principle of low nutrition is effecive in treatment it should be effective in prevention. Dr. Joslyn, thinks that obese patients should be frankly told they are candidate^: fam the disease and courting it. Sugar in Jelly O ; More jelly is spoiled by an overdose of sugar than by using too little. For currents, raspberry and blackberries use % cup of sugar to 1 cup of juice. For cranberries, sour apples use from % to H cup of sugar to 1 cup of juice, You cannot make jelly from fruit that is over ripe because the necessary acid is gone. Three things are necessary in jelly making, pectin, acid and sugar. If you have too little of the first two and two much of the latter it "won't jell." Never make -more than six glasses at a time. If you want complete specific, clear directions on jelly making ask for the University of Illinois Jell Bulletin at the Home Bureau office.

She's the girl who pities her poor mamma's nerves and runs for a doctor when she herself should be the patient. But like Eve long ago in- Eden, she gets wise to the trick. And she beats Eve at it, too, for all Eve got was an apple, while Connie scores a regular husband. "Mamma's Affair" was a riot on the stage, but now with Connie in the lead, backed by the brilliant ii.'g h pictorial pippin. wit of John Emerson and Anita Loos, The garden of Eden is presented with the fabled apple tree and serpent. In a richly comic scene Eve induces Adam to hand her the apple by pretending to go into hysterics, which gives the excuse for the subsequent play and which is dedicated to woman's staunchest alley, her "nerves." To contribute to her own selfish ease, Mrs. Orrin, a wealthy widow, the mother of Eve, has a "case of nerves" whenever her comfort is disturbed by the thought of her daughter ceasing to minister to her wants by enjoying her self. To keep her daughter within the sphere of influence she agrees to a plan proposed by Mrs. Marchant, a sycophantic friend, namely, that their children wed and live under their (Mrs. Orrin's and Mrs. Marchant's) jurisdiction: Eve consents to please her mother, but does not care for the fortune seeking Henry Marchant. Doctor Harmon is called in during one of Mrs. Orrjn's "attacks" while they are staying in a hotel. He sizes up the situation and prescribes that the mother and daughter be separated, under the plea tfii# Eve is too ill to see even her fond parent or her affianced husband. Eve falls genuinely in love with the doctor, whose sense or honor does not permit him to marry Eve, altho she has proposed to him, because Henry Marchant accuses him of seeking her for her wealth. Mrs. Orrin has another attack of nerves and tries to hurry the wedding of Henry and Eve. By this time the doctor has fallen in love with Evs and needs no urging to marry her, despite her mother's and Henry's violent opposition.
