ROCK FORMATION.

In One Sense Stones Do Grow, and
In Another They Do Not.
Rocks do not grow In the sense that
plants do. They may increase in size
by means Of accretion, and they may
also undergo other changes. Old sea
beds. lifted up and exposed for ages. be-
come stratified beds Of sandstone or
limestone; volcanic ashes and lava
strewn over hills and plains become
tufa. hard enough for building stone,
and the pebbly shores Of rivers and
smaller streams may sometimes
change into conglomerates. The simple
mineral, however, docs grow. especial
~ when it takes upon itself the form
Of crystal. A sparkling prism of
quartz increases from an atom to
monster crystals of varying length and
size by what biologists know as a
process Of addition and assimilation. "
This process is wonderfully slow, but
with mathematical exactness that ia
surprise to persons even "weli up"
In the science Of geology. In one sense
stones grow: In another they do not.
The crystal may become longer and
larger. but the bowldsr ON the roadside
will not increase a hairbreadth In
length or width in the next 10000
years.
