The Square Hand With Mixed Fingers

Illustration

This is a type that is often seen,and more so among men than among women.It consists of every finger being different in shape,sometimes two or three,sometimes all.It is often found that the thumb of such a hand supple,or bends back very much in the middle joint;the first finger is generally pointed,the second square,the third spatulate,and the fourth pointed.Such a hand indicates great versatility of ideas;at time such a man will be full of inspiration,again he will be scientific and extremely logical;he will descend from the most imaginative idea to the most pratical;he will discuss any subject with the greatest case;but from want of continuity of purpose,he will rarely,if ever,rise to any great height of power or success.
