FISH YARN-ALWAYS A
BETTER ONE COMING

London, Oct 25-That is the
worst of those fish stories. Somebody
always comes along with a better
one.
Recently the Evening News told
the V. A. DIS story of the frozen fish
that came to life in the cooking pot.
Then a correspondence naval Of
ficer, it should be said-easily puts
that to shame.
IAN interesting experiment was
tried some little time ago." he writes
TO us, with an ordinary herring.
THE fish was put into large bowl
of water and every day small guam
tity of water was removed and ain
equal quantity of fresh water was
substituted until eventually the fish
lived and thrived in purely fresh
water.
THE owner was so pleased with
the success of his experiment that he
then tried removing a very small
quantity of water daily until the bowl
was empty, and found that the her
ring did exceedingly well, entirely
without water, and as he was so live
ly in the empty bowl he had to put
him in a cage.
He flew from perch to perch just
like bird, until one day some sud
den noise startled him and he fell
into his water trough and was
drownd!"
