Why this should occur will be readily understood by a reference to Fig. 100. It will here be seen that the injury to the keratogenous membrane has led to great interference with the secretion of horn from the sensitive laminae. As a result, the regu- larly leaf-like arrangement of the horny laminae has been largely broken up. Certain of the laminae are altogether wanting, while others are broken in their length and rendered incomplete. With this conditi

Microscopic examination of the structures involved in such a case reveals the fact that with the contraction is an
