NAL rs is imagined, for in handling
and moving them from one place to
another they are dipped up in nets and
carried about in baskets nuch like
corn or potatoes. Sometimes they are
out of the water thirty minutes, and
seldom is it that they are injured. How
long they will live depends altogether
upon their treatment. In the govern
ment aquarium at Washington is a
goldfish that is known to be fifty years
of age, and it is not perceptibly larger
than when first placed there. There is
said to be in the royal aquarium at
Rome, Italy, fish that is more than a
hundred years of age, but it has grown
slightly in the last twenty-five years.
