Withered Fruit Restored

Take a shrivelled apple, and, placing it under the receiver, exhaust
the air. The apple will immediately be plumped up, and look as fresh
as when first gathered: for this reason, that the pressure of the

indeed that it will sometimes burst. If the air be let into the
receiver, the apple will be restored to its pristine shrivelled state.
