The separation of the e s of the fissure in the lip is only the cflect of the retraction of the muscles, and is always proportioned to the extent of the cleft. Those who have hare-lips are capable of bringing the edges of the fissure together by muscular action, when they pucker up their mouths. On the other hand, the separation is considerably increased when such persons laugh, and the breach. Ap pears excessively large, after superficially paring off its edges on both sides. Hence, the interspace in the hare-lip must not be mistaken for a loss of substance. The truth of this is confirmed by the effects of sticking plaster, which has sometimes been applied to the hare-lip, as 'a prepa ratory measure before the operation, and which exceedingly lessens the separation of the parts.
