Here the toe of the pedal bone projects into thesole and renders it convex, instead of being concave, and correspond-ing with the lower surface of the pedal bone. The laminae and elastic substances between them and theircontiguous structures no longer suspend the pedal bone to thecrust, but the weight falls partly upon the sole by means of thetoe of the pedal bone, and i)artly on the frog, which descends solow that in spite of the thickness of the shoe it touches the ground.
