Uae md Ynlue Of Apples.

The apple holds the same position
among fruits that wheat does among
grains. 1t is q luxury as it comes fully
ripened from the tree and its juice
makes very pleasant and wholesome
drink. The apple contains sugar and
other nutritive compounds in the form
of food. If eaten freely it is said to pre-
vent debility, help digestion, prevent
scurvy, and strengthen the powers of
animal labor. 1t is not only valuable
as a substantial food, but it may be
served in many different forms as des-
sert.
For the convenience of housewives
we give the following recipes:

with thin crust, and bake three-fOurths
of an hour in moderate oven.
