Anpla Rlst.

A French chemist has shown that the
apple contains an oxidizing ferment
which produces the brownish or red
dish color OF cider The manner In
which this substance produces oxida-
ton can readily be observed by any
one who cuts an apple open and leaves
4 exposed for a short time to the air.
The cut surfaces gradually turn red
as the oxygen Of the air unites with
the Juice-in a word, the apple rusts-
Rusdng Of an apple may also be
brought about By simply bruising the
fruit without breaking the skin Ev-
erybOdy knows that apples that have
fallen violently to the ground show
red or rusty spots underneath the
bruised rind In this case the oxygen
Is derived from the air contained In
the ducts or interstices among the us
sues OF the fruit. and It becomes active
through the breaking Of the cells that
inclose the Oxidizing ferment II an
apple is cooked before its skin Is

Music In the Home.

We are all more or less aware OF the
value. and indeed the necessity OF fur
nishing books to all children and even
Of making IT possible for them all TO
see good pictures. We are apt, how
ever. to regard music as something
that we need provide only for the ex-
ceptional child. the child who shows
signs Of being what we call musical"
This is due partly to the fact that mu-
sic lessons are more expensive than
books, and that a ticket to a concert
costs about four times as much as a
ticket to q museum. Our mistake is In
fancying that costly music lessons and
concerts are the only means Of furnish
ing musical instruction of the best
kind to children. Some of the finest
music in the world is so simple that
any mother who plays the plano at all
can perform 1t for her children. and,
moreover, teach them to play II them
selves.-Home Progress
