Small hands — Delicacy of mind; broad ideas; synthetically talents. I will insist on this point when 1 reaches the Fingers.

Average hands — the hands sense, practical gifts, and healthy, if moderate, imagination.

Large hands — A love and aptitude for minutiae and details; analytical talents. I will pay my respects to this characteristic when I reach the Fingers.

Very large hands — A mania for useless details; the hand of the martinet and meddlesome, never satisfied employer.
