The enlargement of the lower jaw is discov- ered by manipulation. On removing the skin from the sides of the face of such a subject, and dissecting the muscles and perios- teum (covering of bone), the bones appear to have undergone a softening process, and particles can be separated by means of the finger-nails. At the same time, if a transverse section of any of the shaft-bones be made, they will be found to have undergone structural changes. For example, they will not only appear soft- ened, but honey-combed, and many of the laminae and cartilagi- nous braces will have been decomposed or dissolved, so that the bone looks like fibrous net-work.
