Bowman has written on mucous membrane in Todds Cyclop — Paragraph worth reading. B. thinks that drawing up cheeks may give support to the orbicular to keep eyelids closed to proper degree or exert under bright daylight ─
When I speak of crying from distress, say especially to tell the mother that the infant wants food or nursing. ─
