A Forest Of ston. in Australia.
From the London Globe

In Albany, In Australia, is to be seen
a tor forest-in other words petrif1ed
trees. The trees are OF a gray stone.
1t is suggested as an explanation OF
the strange phenomenon that in the
depths of past ages the forest was in
full vegetation and then through some
upheaval Of the earth it was buried in
sand. Little by little water acting on
the sand penetrated the branches and
solidifed. The wood gradually disap-
under the layer of stone and in
time took its form. Then in succeed
ing years the winds again carried away
the sand, and h forest appeared anew.
