He was a very tall, thin man, with a long nose like a beak, which shot out between two keen, grey eyes, set closely together and sparkling brightly from behind a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He was clad in a professional but rather slovenly fashion, for his frock-coat was dingy and his trousers frayed. Though young, his long back was already bowed, and he walked with a forward thrust of his head and a general air of peering benevolence.

What did Sherlock Holmes think about the owner of the stick when he examined it?
If you are talking about the stick belonging to Dr. Mortimer in The Hound of the Baskervilles, he made several brilliant deductions: 1. He deduced that Dr. Mortimer served in the Charing Cross Hospital, as on the stick the following is inscribed: 'friends of the C.C.H'. This is proved right when they check in Watson's medical directory. 2. He deduced Dr. Mortimer left Charing Cross Hospital from the date on the stick. 3. He deduced Dr. Mortimer was either a house-surgeon or a house-physician because a well-established staff physician would not likely leave the hospital. 4. He deduced that Dr. Mortimer's dog was larger than a terrier and smaller than a mastiff by closely examining the space between the teeth mark on the stick. 5. He surmised "there emerges a young fellow under thirty, amiable, unambitious, absent-minded . . ."
How does Sherlock Holmes know that Dr Mortimer makes his own cigarettes in 'The Hound of the Baskervilles'?
Holmes says to Mortimer: "I observe from your forefinger that you make your own cigarettes." Holmes presumably noticed tobacco stains, or, perhaps, Mortimer let a few cigarettes burn until they scorched his fingers.
