[Errata.—A few typographical errors in articles of this series have escaped correction. Page 254, change “300,000,000” to 3,000,000; for “alcohol,” thirty-third line, page 325, substitute paraffine; same page, eighth line, second column, use not for “but;” in “experiment,” same column, use heat for “sensation,” and in next to the last line of the article change “topics” to optics.—Prof. J. T. Edwards.]
The old red sandstone is the name given to the rock in Great Britain formed in the Devonian age, or age of fishes. Its thickness is in some parts 8,000 to 10,000 feet. It includes sandstone, marlytes of red and other colors, and some limestone.
The sandstone of the Triassic period, which includes the latest formations of the earth’s crust, is also characterized by fossils, and is often red in color; hence the name, new red sandstone, has been applied to it.
