"This is the wizard hand that works
miracles, the dextrous sweep of which
over the ivory keys sets women into
ecstatic mysteries and drives men to drink
| through jealousy"
j. B. Hargett, professor of palmistry
sat before table in his office, upon which
| lay sheet of blackened paper, bearing
the imprint of hand. Every line of the
hand was shown, even to the very finest
| markings of the cuticle. 1t was a large
hand, with fingers rather short in proper
tion and wide apart.
''1t is the truly artistic hand" said the
professor contemplarively. ''It is the hand
of Paderewski. The impression? Oh,
nothing more than sheet of lampbIack
| secured the impression at Los Angeles"
81 met the professor with some friends
| at his car. They were about to pull out
when the thought occurred to me. Pade-
| rewski was perfectly willing. but when
made the preparation of lampblack his
private secretary was very much alarmed
with the evident doubt as to the effect on
that wonderful hand. / reassured him
with the explanation that ii was nothing
| more dangerous than plain lampblack.
Paderewski placed his hand on the paper,
but did not press heavily enough and the
impression was poor. This Is the second
attempt, which is much better.
"What do it's lines indicate? Here is the
reading which [ made at the time" and
the professor read from a manuscript a 8
follows:
The first impression that I got from
this hand was that 1t was the product of a
cold country. Its grasp and texture were
those of baseball player. Its finer pow
ers were, however, apparent In the touch.
1t shows the hereditary power OF cold re-
gions and nothing in the development in
cident to blue skies and balmy breezes
The skin and formation indicate hardi-
hood. 1t is made for hard work and bears
the evidence of having done hard work.
1t is capable of remarkable skill. 1t is truly
the artistic hand. The emotional and i'm
aginary qualities are strongly marked
