fingers, in your hand.

                  As previously stated, there are 206 bones in our bod-

            ies, which are connected to each other like those in the

            hands. Each of these bones is situated in their places ac-

            cording to an intelligent plan. It is thanks to this perfect
            plan that you can bend your body forward, kneel and turn

            your head to the side. But make no mistake: you cannot

            do all these things just by using your bones, because

            bones cannot be bent. There are joints at the connection

                                              points of your bones. Thanks

                                              to these joints, you can easily

                                              bend your arm, raise your leg

                                              and use your fingers.

                                                   Let us give you an ex-
