Water That Turns Frogs 10 Stone.

The local biologists of Lawrence
County, Pennsylvania, say TINT thero
is n spring in Beaver Township, in
that county, which has wonderful
lapidescent qualities, it's potrifyiny
powers heing sufficient to transform
moss, sticks, leaves and even animal
flesh into solid stone in surprisingly
brief period. This rill of wonderful
water is located on tho farm of ono
w. S. McGinnis, and is less than two
miles from the little village of West
Moravia. It's singular properties were
first noted Ivy William Ellsworth AWAY
back in 1887. AT that time there was
stone lying near where the spring
bursts forth that was not much larger
than common wooden bucket. At
the present time that stone will weigh.
according to estimates made by reli.
able citizens, not less than fifty tons.
There is wide difference between
the roadside boulder and the wonder

The first finished its growth perhaps
millions of years ago, when it became

the latter lE annually adding to its
weight and bulk rs direct result of
stony deposits from the queer impreg-
mated waters which flow over and
around it. Moss forms very rapidly
on the constantly changing surfnco OF
this growing stone" nn account of tho
situntion, which is dark and damp.
The water of the spring deposits cal
careous coating over the moss, practi-
cally converting it into solid stone.
The following season the stone is again
covered with moss, and, after lapse
of few weeks tho latter il converted
into stone. This process has been go
ing on for years, until the small rock

A Lo; From Adam,s Time.

4 relic of long ago was nnearthed
recently on lot back of 5O7 South j
street, adjoining the Washington laun-
dry. The relic was only a piece of a
log, but it had been there, fifty-nine
feet beneath the surface, perhaps since
before Adam or Eve took up a home
stead in the Garden of Eden. It was
below two strata of gravel, imbedded
in solid clay. Well diggers found it.
The log was two feet in dia eter and
we'll preserved when taken out. The
wood appears to he maple.
The wood shows wonderful power
of preservation. 1t liz not very brit.
Gle, considering age, and the grain is
distinct. Around small knot there
are signs of petrification.

Some Queer Atoms OF Anatomy.

There is school of learned special
lists who hold that the white cells of
the blood ore traps for the destruction
of microbes.
Each respiratory duct is one fourth
OF nm inch i'll length, tho total length
in all the human body being about
nine miles. Tho human heart weighs
from eight TO twelve ounces and bents
100, 600 times every twenty-four hours.
An amount of blood equal to all that
contained in the body passes through
the heart once every three minutes.
1t has been calculated that the whole
number of sweat glands or pores in the
skin is upwards of 1900, 600.
About two thirds of pint of mir is
inhaled and cxhaled ut each breath of
ordinary respiration
1t is estimated that in lifetime of
three score years and ten TINT the
heart beats not less than Q, 53S, S4S, 900
times.
Tho lifting power of the heart, ac.
cording to DIR. Richardson, is equal to
the fent of raising five tons one foot
per hour.
A German writer in tho London
Standard claims that the heart coutin-
ues to grow until after the fiftieth
birthday.
Every well-developed adult of the
human species has lung surface equal
to 400 square feet. The hearts
power is sufficient to lit itself 13, 600
