rived too late and found that the whole

The Red LObster.

The question is often asked, says the
Lancet. without satisfactory answer
being supplied. Why do lobsters ana
certain shrlmps and prawns turn red
on boiling? One reason may be that
the black pigment Of the lobster Is an
iron compound in the lower state OF
oxidation. which boiling oxidizes 10
the higher state. Red human hair Is
said TO owe its brilliance to iron exist
ing in the higher oxidized state, ana
by means of reducing agents, such as
pyrogallic acid or nutgall, the color
may be modified. In short, oxygen Is
great painter and probably accounts
for the beautiful autumnal tints OF
plant life.
