He took the fish home and kept it in a large vat of salt wa ter. Every morning the professor dip ped out of this vat half a teaspoonful of salt water and replaced It with an equal amount of fresh water. The herring survived and passed bis days apparently in the best of spirits. In the course of time the water I d the tank was rendered completely fresh. Not a grain of salt was left lu It. And still the herring remained cheerful and in good health. Next the berr pro fessor began to deprive the fish, little by little, of the fresh water element In which he lived, lu this also he was successful, and after a time the herring gamboled around In a perfectly dry tank. The herr professor next put the fish in a birdcage, and the Intelligent crea ture continued to thrive. But one day the herr professor noticed that some thing seemed to be the matter with his pet. He had forgotten to give It anything to drink. Thereupon be put a dish of water In the cage. The next morning, when the herr professor came to look at his fish, a melancholy sight met his gaze. The herring had fallen head first Into the dish of water and had been drowned.— Harper's Weekly.
