Wooden Hand Growing out OF q

her husband to get it for her. He
cut the top off tho bush, aud com
menced breaking off the mistletoe,
whom, to his surprise and terror, he
discovered that the wood underneath
presented the perfect form of
human hand. Capt. Andrews hear.
ing of the wonderful discovery, went
to the house Of Mr.. Heron, who,
feeling rather uncomfortable over
the thought that he out it from a
grave, and perhaps having some
theory as to it's supernatural signii-
ance, very willingly let Capt. An
drews have it. The bush from which
it was cut was six reet high, and the
hand was on the top, pointing up
ward, presenting the position of tho
minister's hand when pronouncing
bcncdiction. 1t is about tho size of
a six-year-old ohild's hand, with long
slender fingers like those of person
very much emaciated by sickness.
The wood has enlarged formations
on each finger and the thumb, repre-
sonting and corresponding with tho
joints of the human hand. The most
remarkable feature about it is the
natural appearance of tho nails.
They had a kind Of flesh color, and
the rest Of tho hand, where tho bark
had been entirely removed, looks
