"The eccentric hand intellectual." The caption doesn't say this is the hand of an eccentric and intellectual person but rather that the hand itself is eccentric and intellectual. Therefore, the illustration is transformed into a talisman, akin to the Hand of Fatima. From New Discoveries in Palmistry by Joseph Bryant Hargett, 1901.

While trying to find the source of this image, based upon the caption, "He may live in your house," we encountered this:
"Things that never happened can tangle with things that did, an imaginary being can hold hands with the flesh-and-blood real, he may live in your house, as a Henry of my own once did, he may read all that you have read and even make love to your wife. The atheist may lie down with the believer, the encyclopedia with the poem. Everything absorbed and wondered at in the faithless months – science, maths, history, law and all the rest – you can bring with you and put to use when you return yet again to the one true faith" —Ian McEwan, " When Faith in Fiction Falters, and How It Is Restored"
