APPLE TAPIOCA PUDDING

Pick over and wash ¾ of a cup of pearl tapioca. Pour 1 quart of boiling water over it, and cook in the double boiler until transparent; stir often, and add ½ teaspoonful of salt. Core and pare 7 apples. Put them in a round baking dish, and fill the cores with sugar and lemon juice. Pour the tapioca over them and bake till apples are very soft. Serve hot or cold with sugar and cream. A delicious variation may be made by using half pears, or canned quinces, and half apples.
