Really No Problem NJ All.

The question of the weight Of fish
In water was settled over $50 years
ago. 1t Is said that Charles II Of Eng
land once asked for solution of the
problem as to why pail of water
should weigh no more after a live fish
was placed in 1t than before. The rea-
sons ascribed by scientists we're many.
but no definite conclusions were
reached. Finally one man, more prac-
teal than the Others tried the expert
meht and discovered that the weight
vas Increased just as much as the fish
weighed.
