"Ten shillings on every pound if he does not want a big salary," said De Haan instantly, "and twelve and sixpence on every pound if he does it for nothing." And Pinchas, who was easily bamboozled when finance became complex, went out to find Raphael.
The members of the Society met in Aaron Schlesinger's back office to consider them. Schlesinger was a cigar merchant, and the discussions of the Society were invariably obscured by gratuitous smoke Schlesinger's junior partner, Lewis De Haan, who also had a separate business as a surveyor, was the soul of the Society, and talked a great deal.
We must dole out our praise and blame quite differently, and we must be very scrupulous to give only a little praise so that it shall be valued the more." He stroked his white, beard tranquilly. "But how about meetings?" urged Raphael. "I find that sometimes two take place at once. I can go to one, but I can't be at both." "Oh, that will be all right," said De Haan airily.
Perhaps they remembered, too, that he was cheap. "But we must all edit the paper," said De Haan enthusiastically, when peace was re-established. "We must have meetings every day and every article must he read aloud before it is printed." Little Sampson winked cynically, passing his hand pensively through his thick tangled locks, but Raphael saw no objection to the arrangement.
"If I can print at all, I can print anything," responded Gluck reproachfully. "How many shall you want?" "It's the orthodox paper we've been planning so long," said De Haan evasively. Gluck nodded his head. "There are seventy thousand orthodox Jews in London alone," said De Haan, with rotund enunciation. "So you see what you may have to print. It'll be worth your while to do it extra cheap."
"The advertisement canvasser is a more important man than the editor." Ebenezer pricked up his ears. "I thought you undertook to do some canvassing for your money," said De Haan. "So I will, so I will; rely on me for that. I shouldn't be surprised if I get the capitalists who are backing up my opera to give you the advertisements of the tour, and I'll do all I can in my spare time.
Sugarman blenched and skipped back and the line of fists wavered. "Don't be fools, gentlemen," said De Haan, his keen sense of humor asserting itself. "Let Mr. Leon sit down." Raphael, still dazed, took his seat on the editorial chair. "Now, what can I do for you?" he said courteously. The fists dropped at his calm. "Do for us," said Schlesinger drily. "You've done for the paper.
"Well, when are you going to get him?" "Oh, we shall have advertisements rolling in of themselves," said De Haan, with a magnificent sweep of the arm. "And we shall all assist in that department! Help yourself to another cigar, Sampson." And he passed Schlesinger's box.
A breath of breeze from the river, sighing through the palms, brought to my streaming cheeks a hint of coolness and to my nostrils more than a hint of the garbage broiling on the beach. Anyone who could be romantic in Borneo must be in love. The Assistant Resident, Monsieur de Haan, was as glad to see me as a banker away from home is to see a copy of The Wall Street Journal.
Coconut soap is very hard, and brilliantly white, and is dissolved in salt water more easily than any other soap. On Pigafetta's map Leyte is divided into two parts, the north being called Baibay, and the south Ceylon. Pigaf., 70. According to Dr. Gerstaecker: Oedipoda subfasciata, Haan, Acridium Manilense, Meyen.
