As the index of temperament, the palm is of the utmost importance; i if hard and nonâ€"elastic, it indwates; stolidity; if soft. indolence and tran-‘ quil enjoyment; if elastic, activity of ‘ mental faculties; if hollow and firm. i it indicates mental vigor. The hard 'hand may experience a feeling of tstrong attachment, but exhibit little tenderness; but the: soft hand may ex- hibit tenderness, with only moderate attachment. Two individuals endowed with similar intellectual qualities, but differing in the development of their palms, will proluce widely different results. Some fingers are? smooth, while oth- ! lers show enlargements of their joints. i 1 In the smooth fingers M. D'Arpentigny i | recognizes the indication of inspira- 11 tion, intuition and passion; in the knot- a ty fingers those of induction and or-'1 der. Where the upper joint is distinct- l ‘ly pronounced, it is said to indicate; doubt, independence of thought and. self-confidence, but the term may he: |on1y applied when the hand is gener-l ' ally well developed. In an ordinary ! l or feeble hand this knot must beview- 1 ed- as an‘ index rather of a mind prone ‘ to indulge in petty distinctions, discon- {me joint de r. Shakspeare’s witches are made to place considerable prophetic power in their thumbs. “ By the pricking“. of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.” Generally a small thumb is a sign of irresolution; it is also indicative of an accommodating and loving Spir- it.
