The six mice each received at the beginning of the second day double rations 

 (to last from Saturday till Monday). They evidently ate both during the first day 

 or so and starved and lost weight during the second day. The same daily rations 

 on the fourth day considerably increased their weights on the fifth day. It will be 

 seen that those which ate the rations containing somatose lost weight from the first.
