Mendel did not take his eyes from his teacher; he could scarcely master his impatience. "Well, Rabbi," he asked, "of what do they speak?" "Of things beyond your comprehension," replied the teacher. "The writers of both these books were good and pious Jews, who, because of their learning, were branded and ostracized by many of their co-religionists.
"A couple of bright boys like Mendel Immerglick and Louis Frank can work up a nice business after a while." "Can they?" Abe rejoined. "Well, more likely they work up a nice line of credit, Mawruss, and then, little by little, they make it a big failure, Mawruss. A feller what curls his mustache like Mendel Immerglick ain't no stranger to auction houses, Mawruss.
His withered lips sought hers and love flooded their souls at last. When the first delicious instants were over, Mendel drew a chair to the table and wrote a letter in Hebrew script and posted it and Beenah picked up Miriam's jacket.
"Your excellency is too good," said Mendel, joyously, as bright visions of emancipation flashed through his brain. "I am told that you have great influence with your people," continued the Governor. "Am I correctly informed?" "I am too young to influence them, but I believe I have their esteem and respect." "They, at all events, place confidence in you," answered Pomeroff.
"Your excellency," said Mendel, in a quiet and dignified manner, speaking in perfect Russian, "I come to seek your assistance in a matter of great importance to a large class of your subjects." The Governor, surprised as much by the purity of language as by the temerity of the Jew, looked at the young man, scrutinizingly, for some moments. "What do you wish?" he asked, at length.

"I would give the Jew an opportunity to become not only a useful but a respected citizen."
"If his energies are directed into the proper channels, he will become a shining light in Israel." "Come, Mendel, let us go home," he said aloud, and they started silently for the town, both too much engrossed in thought to speak. Only once, Mendel asked: "Rabbi, you are not offended by my questions?" and the Rabbi replied: "No, my boy.
Indeed, Prince Czartorisky was so convinced of their patriotism, that he always advocated the same rights for the Polish Jews as were claimed for the Polish Gentiles, entrusted his children to the care of Mendel Levin of Satanov, and instructed his son, Prince Ladislaus, always to remain their friend.
"What!" cried Mrs. Spencer, in dismay, thinking of Marjorie. And Marjorie and Delight, unable to keep away any longer, came into the room just in time to hear the doctor's statement. "What's the matter, mother?" cried Delight. "Tell me about it! Is Maggie's little boy going away?" "You tell her, Doctor Mendel," said Mrs. Spencer; I can't."
He that hungers let him partake of it, he that is in need let him eat and be satisfied." As though in response to the hospitable invitation, there came a soft rap at the door. Mendel opened it and the bright light revealed a man and a woman, whose haggard faces and tattered garments presented the very picture of misery. "Father! Mother!" Mendel cried, joyfully.
