The integument covering the outer nose is in general thin and closely bounddown to the underlying fibrous tissue, being particularly unyielding over the tip andalae. With the exception of within the alee and lateral borders of the nostrils, the PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS: THE EXTERNAL NOSE. 1407 fatty tissue is very meai;ie. The sebaceous glands, on the other hand, are welldeveloped and open in many instances in conjunction with the follicles of the delicatehairs that cover all jxuts of the surface. On the aUe the closely placed glands are ofexceptional size and o])en by ducts readily seen as minute de])ressions. Vessels.—In ortler to compensate for the exposed jiosilicjn, the external noseis generously supplied with arfirics, derived chiefly from the facial and ophthalmic,which are united by numerous anastomoses with each other as wel
