two trays are raised another thirteen
centimeters, and another fresh lot Of
fruit y inserted below. The n1st lot =
still more shaded from the heat, but re-
mains in an atmosphere saturated with
moisture from the new supplies below.
Thus the fruit rises a few ccntimeterB
every ten or fifteen minutes, moving
continually away from the fire, and yet
always bathed in vapOr from the fruit
under it. In from four to six hours it
rises to tho top of the shaft and is by
this time finished. It has parted with
Oh its water, and has undergone an en-
tire change in its nature. When fresh,
four-fifths ofthe ripe peach consisted of
water. It also contained certain per
centage of acids and q certain proper,
tion of sugar, starch, and other chem
ical constituents. After passing through
the evaporator, it is reduced to four
fifths of its original weight, the loss be-
ing almost wholly in water. The fibrous
skeleton Of the fruit remains, but the
acids are reduced and the sugar has IN
creased in quantity. The other por-
tions-starch, etc.-are nearly UNI
changed, the color is retained, and there
is still q trace of the fragrance of the
ripe fruit. The process the fruit has
passed through seems to resemble a
supplementary ripening. The familiar
instance Of the after-ripening of winter
pears in dark closet, where the hard
and sour pear becomes sweet, juicy and
mellow, may serve to illustrate the
chemical change that takes place in this
process. The evaporated peach is dry,
but ripper and sweeter than when fresh.
Every valuable quality of the fruit is
retained; the water alone has been ex-
traced. Soak the dry peach in enough
cold water to cover it and it assumes its
natural size and flavor. 1t is then prac-
tically ripe peach, with the water re-
stored. 1t makes no difference when
the water is replaced; it may be now,
next year. or ten years hence, in this or
in any other climate; add the water to
the dry peach at any time and it may
be cooked and eaten in any form that
fancy dictates.-Cha1es Barnard, Serb
ner for June.

An Imprisoned Owl.

The Lancaster PENN Examiner says
"The owner Of large farm, not far
from Lancaster, had an opportunity o
few days ago Of witnessing how an inter-
loper is punished by the martin specie
of birds. A pair Of martins had taken
poss ession Of a small box, and were
building their nest. One day, while they
were absent a screech owl took poss ession
of the box, and when the martins came
home at night would not
allow them to enter. The small
Ter birds were non-plussed for
while, and in short time flew awayf
seemingly giving up the fight. But i,
the owl was of this opinion he was sad
ly mistaken, for in a short time the lit
tie ones returned, bringing with them a
whole army of their companions, who
Immediately set to work and, procuring
mud, plastered the entrance to the box
shut. They then all flew away. In a
few days the box was examined and
the owl was found dead.
