Among the authors of original scientific books, Hirsch Rabinowitz should be given the first place, as the writer of a series of treatises on physics, chemistry, etc., which appeared at Wilna, between the years 1866 and 1880. After him come Lerner, Mises, Reifmann, and a number of others. The period was also prolific in periodicals representing various tendencies.

"My Jewels are truly valued!" asseverates Hirsch always: "Ephraim is my enemy; ask Herr Reklam, chief Jeweller in Berlin, an impartial man!" The meetings are occasionally of stormy character; Voltaire's patience nearly out: "But did n't I return you that Topaz Ring, value 75 pounds?

It was she who had said she had been in her employ and had taught Helene Helene! It was she who had related anecdotes about the Convent at Tours and the nuns who were so wise and kind! Robin's hand went up to her forehead with a panic-stricken gesture. Fraulein Hirsch had made an excuse for leaving her with Lady Etynge to be brought up to the top of the house quite alone and locked in.

A man and a woman are in custody. Their names are Hirsch!" "He's a member of the committee!" I exclaimed. "I saw him bring in the bag. It was Madame, his wife, who distrusted me all the time." "Do you think," he asked, "that you were followed here?" "Very likely," I answered Staunton turned to a tall, dark young man who stood by his side. "Tell Mr. Courage what has happened," he said.

"Yes, I see them all and why, there's a chamois!" Sepp seized the glass which she held toward him. "The gracious Frauelein has a hunter's eyesight; a chamois is feeding just above the Hirsch." "We are right for the wind, but is this the best place?" said Rex. "We must make the best of it," said Sepp.

He counted the shining dollars on the counter, and then pushed the money and the clothing toward Leonora. "Here is our Luztow's rifleman's uniform," he exclaimed. "And here are the dresses, sir," said Leonora, handing the wearing apparel to the old man, but, while doing so, she quickly bent over it, and pressed a kiss on the silk dress. Old Hirsch looked at her with amazement.

It is only fair to the memory of Lucien Hirsch to say that he never cared the least about me. He died a short time after this and some one said to the Baron: "What a fool Margot Tennant was not to have married your son! She would be a rich widow now." At which he said: "No one would die if they married Margot Tennant."

The farm is free and clear save for $400 lent by the Hirsch people to pay off an onerous mortgage. Some comment was made upon the light soil. The farmer pointed significantly to the barnyard. "I make him good," he said. Across the road was a large house with a pretentious dooryard and evergreen hedges. A Gentile farmer with many acres lived in it. The lean fields promised but poor crops.

"They are so eager and so triumphant when a boat gets across the Pond." She went away very soon and Robin watched her out of sight with interest. They saw her again a few days later and talked a little more. She was not always near the Pond when they came, and they naturally did not go there each time they walked together, though Fraulein Hirsch was fond of sitting and watching the children.

At times the wedding of a wealthy Jew, or the funeral of some eminent man, demanded his services and for a week or more money would be plentiful and happiness reign supreme. Hirsch Bensef entered the hut and found Jentele, Maier's wife, perspiring over the hearth which occupied one corner of the room. She was preparing a meal of boiled potatoes.
