revival of carving on quartz and crys- tai and some very good work is done along this line Translucent stones are used as well as veined opal ones The heads of mythological persons are carved on these and sometimes figures from friezes, or often from well known pictures. The idea is to make the ring as simple as possible, so diamonds are not introduced.
 Among the special finds Of women who travel are the Indian rings of Parsee priests. These are quite long on the finger and are set with varied stones in vivid colors. Another quaint fashion which brings pearls and sap phires into place is to have ones mon ogram made of them and set into dull silver.
 The shirt waist ring proper is made of a rnajtrix and costs little. The tur- quoise ones with a strong green col bring are admired and onyx, artifcially colored has gained a good place.

THE WATER SITUATION.

The win of the people has been ex- pressed upon the water question, and she mayor feels relieved to think they have assumed the responsibility
 Last week some of our friends e1- pressed a willingness to favor any Feasible plan because they did not wish to be regarded as obstruction6sts N Is apparent today that the majority cannos be obstructioMsts, and let us hope the majority does not believe that thsre are any in the minority.
 Mayor Thayer is frank enough and makes his meaning clear. He called shs attention of the citizens to the fact that beside rejecting Jordan brook as q source of future supply of pure wa ter. they had done nothing more than to express the will of the majority and that if gave no legal base for himself or the water board 10 act upon It seesr~ to The Bulletin that he was broadly hintfng te the citizens that they should get together and proceed in an orderly and a legal way to have their wishecs embofdaed in Q petition, to be by him rsaeed in & warning for @ meeting Of ths citixens In a way which would settle this question.
 He aprersntly recognizes that 1he next move In ths game Is up to the eatixens. and in his declaration that the responsibility is upon them he evi- 6entiy expects from them the legal action which win carry the matter to correct and final conclusion.
 It ahouid be borne in mind that ths whole city Of Norwich has not the le- gal power to override the health officer whom sosver he may be; and that the cleaning up of the Trading Cove wa- terShed should be quickly accomplish sd. the water reanalyssd and the mat tar disposed of in an orderly and legal manner.

He cannot be blamed for seeking s release which will take the responsibility from him, whether the community thinks it is slight or not This is wlsas he wants, and Is really entitled to: and the citi- song can accomplish it by ordering the watershed at Trading Cove brook cleaned up and having the water shown to bc equal to F'nirvtew water.

Short Waist Is Not Practical in Linen.

The tendency to run the skirt up past the normal waist line is pro- nounced among the cottons and linens as elsewhere. but while 1t may be readily enough worked out in very sheer soft material, it presents tub ping difficulties in the heavier stuffs. smoothly and plainly over the waist curve and yet would be quite out of style if stretched tightly as the girdle skirts once were.

that they use his photograph to fur

Sixteen of the corn diet patients
suffered during the year from diar-
rhoea, while only ten of the corn free
diet had it and there were more cases
of constipation on the corn free diet
than in the corn diet cottage.
I'm the corn diet cottage four cases
of pellagra developed, with three sus.
poets. In the corn free diet cottage
five cases of pellagra developed, with
four suspects
1T is therefore seen by the above
that in this rather extended study,
corn was not contributory factor in
the production of this disease"
Monkeys and guinea pigs were fed
on various kind of corn for long pc.
RODS without showing any results.
Experiments We're then made on pa.
tients at the Peoria hospital to de
termine the influence of diet. The
general diet at the Peoria hospita'
was taken and number of daily
grams of protein per man was de
termined. According to some opin.
ions. the protein was below standard
Ind to others it was above the stand
ard. Groups of patients were placed
upon diets differing in the amount OF
protein daily ration. but definite
results of this experiment have not
yet been received.

ried by the buffalo gnat or the black

port DR.. George A. Zeller, superin-
tendent of the hospital for insane at
Peoria. where the most cases have
been found. has collected the data on
the prevalence and wide distribution
of the disease
1t was first noticed in Italy in the
eighteenth century and since then has
taken million people, and the Italian
government maintains twenty-five pub
lie institutions for the victims of the
disease.
In Illinois the disease now claims
about 800 known victims.
The disease was recognized at the
Dunning hospital in 1867, and short
time later at the Peoria hospital for
insane. The Illinois cases have been
studied by the highest authorities in
the army and navy medical corps, who
have also investigated the disease in
Italy. and they pronounce the two
types exactly alike.
Since August 10, 1910, 100 known
deaths from pellagra have been off
cialy reported in Illinois.
