Once he discounted his bill." "Is that so?" Abe said, as they reached the front of Potash & Perlmutter's store. "Glad to hear M. Garfunkel is so busy. Good-morning, Max." Morris Perlmutter met him at the door. "Hallo, Abe," he cried. "What's the matter? You look pale. Is Rosie worse?" Abe shook his head. "Mawruss," he said, "did you ship them goods to M. Garfunkel yet?"
With this ultimatum he hastened uptown to Pfingst's warerooms, where he assured the automobile dealer that unless the guarantee was signed, there would be no sale of the car, for he flatly declined to pay cash and Pfingst refused to accept the purchaser's note without Potash & Perlmutter's indorsement.
"After all," he said, "I might get a good price for the house anyway." From Mosha Kronberg's tenement house on Madison Street to the cloak and suit district, at Nineteenth Street and Fifth Avenue, is less than two miles as the crow flies, but Morris Perlmutter's journey uptown was accomplished in less direct fashion.
Abe saw Louis that very evening, and they met by appointment at the store ten days later. In the meantime Louis had inspected the house, and when he entered Potash & Perlmutter's show-room his face wore none too cheerful an expression. "Well, Louis," Abe cried, "you come to tell us it's all right. Ain't it?" Louis shook his head.
"Leave me the name and address, and I'll see that they send it direct from the store. I'll put one of your cards inside." "And another thing," Morris concluded. "See that you don't hold nothing out on us by way of commission." Mrs. Perlmutter smiled serenely. "I won't," she said, in dulcet tones. It was the fourth day after Potash & Perlmutter's receipt of the wedding invitation.
Perlmutter's emotions, and before she was sufficiently calm to disclose the cause of her distress, the gedampftes kalbfleisch gave evidence of its impending destruction by a strong odour of scorching. Hastily Mrs. Perlmutter dried her eyes and ran to the kitchen, so that it was not until the rescued dinner smoked on the dining-room table that Morris learned the reason for his wife's tears.
