Eyebrows.—The Eyebrows are projecting arches of fat and skin, cov- ered with short and thick hairs which encircle the upper portion of the eye. They are provided with muscles, so that they can be made to shade the eye more or less perfectly, as ne- cessity may require. 630. Eyelids,—The Eyelids are movable membranous and mus- cular coverings which are placed directly up- on the eyeball, and are designed for protective organs against mechanical violence and too powerful light. Their free edges are called Tarsal Carti- Where are the lachrymal canals and what do they carry? What is the nasal duct? 689. Describe the eyebrows. 690. What are the eyelids ?
