[Ill.u.s.tration: THE ELBOW JOINT.

(A hinge joint.)]

[Ill.u.s.tration: THE HIP JOINT.

(A ball-and-socket joint.)]

Some joints, as those of the skull, are immovable; some, as those of the spine, may be moved a little; and others more or less freely, as those of the limbs. In machines, the parts which move upon each other need to be oiled, to keep them from wearing out; but the joints of our bodies oil themselves with a thin fluid, called _synovia_. This fluid resembles the white of an egg, and comes from a smooth lining inside of the joints. The ends of the bones which form joints are covered by gristle or _cartilage_, and are fastened together by very strong, silvery white bands, called _ligaments_. A sprain is caused by overstretching or tearing some of these ligaments.
