Morris blushed, while Lina and M. Garfunkel both made a critical examination of the garment's eccentric fit. "Why, that's one of them forty-twenty-two's what I ordered a lot of this morning, Mawruss. Ain't it?" Morris gazed ruefully at the plum-color gown and nodded. "Then don't ship that order till you hear from me," M. Garfunkel said. "I guess I got to hustle right along."
"Why," he gasped, "that's one of them forty-twenty-two's I ordered yesterday." Anna lifted both her arms the better to display the gown's perfection, and Garfunkel examined it with the eye of an expert. "Let's see the back," he said. "That looks great on you, Anna." He spun her round and round in his anxiety to view the gown from all angles.
"I'm going to leave you to do the worrying, and in the meantime I guess I'll look after getting out them forty-twenty-two's. Them forty-twenty-two's them plum-color Empires was your idee, Mawruss. You said they'd make a hit with the Southern trade, Mawruss, and I hope they do, Mawruss, for, if they don't, there ain't much chance of our getting paid for them."
Siegmund Lowenstein, of Galveston, was in here yesterday, and I sold him a twenty-four-hundred-dollar order, including them forty-twenty-two's, and you know as well as I do, Abe, them forty-twenty-two's is stickers. We got 'em in stock now over two months, ever since Abe Magnus, of Nashville, turned 'em back on us." Abe's reception of the news was somewhat disappointing to Morris.
