1t seems as II there are fashions in
fish just now as there are in wearing
apparel. A fish that brings In German
markets nearly four times as much per
pound as our fresh mackerel and con-

the English like it Every year they
consume 5000 tons Of it. Yet we will
have none Of 1t.
This FISK is known as the goosefish,
anglerfsh. devilfsh and monkish.

than founder. slightly more than cod,
a little less than halibut and consider

The goOsefish has an average length
Of three feet and is broad and fiat,
somewhat resembling the founder In
general outline. The only way to get
It, SAYS a Philadelphia woman, is for
the housewives To club together and
demand it. At the present time fisher
men do not take the trouble to bring 1t
home, but discard 1t from their nets
