Excerpt from The Lungs: Basic Principles for Their Healing and Development

The nose is termed the organ of smell, and for our convenience we will divide it into the external nose and the internal or air passages. The upper part or root of the former 18 connected with the lower part of the fore head, while its base has two elliptical Openings called orifices. It is to be noted that its upper part 1s bony 111 structure and unyielding to touch, while its base or lower portion is not only soft and flexible to pressure, but is especially constructed in that way with cartilage and elastic tissue for the purposes of expansion and contrae tion, a prime factor always to be found in; the general make-up of any organ that takes a prominent part in the act of respiration.
