This, even when c-looked. is not fill: for food, as it is hard and irritating, and is said by good authorities to possess astringent qualities which counteract _the bene- i.ciial_ results obtain-ed from the fruit itself. Fruirt skins are designed for the protection of the fleshy part or pulp from nnseots. I Dried apples are the most whole- some. a-nld for many purposes the most couuvevn.-ient. In the driled - fruit we have preserved the best qualities, and the natural water, lost by evapora- tilorn. is replaced by the soakimg in fresh. ooldt wa-ter.- The time requir- ed tosotte.-n or fill them out to their original bulk is from eight to twelve hours.
