"And such a nice woman! That's what she needs yet on top of his heart trouble and her girl running round with Sollie Spitz; and, from what she don't say, I can see that boy causes her enough worry with his wild ways. That's what that poor woman needs yet!" "Look at Izzy, Mrs. Lissman. I bet that boy drinks or something. Look at his face like a sheet!

A man like Max Hochenheimer comes along, a man where the goodness looks out of his face, a man what can give her every comfort; and, because he ain't a fine talker like that long-haired Sollie Spitz, she " "You leave him out! Anyways, he's got fine feeling for something besides sausages." "Is it a crime, Renie, that I should want so much your happiness?

If last week my Sollie didn't fall off the delivery-wagon and sprain his back!" "You don't say so!" "That same job as you got him two years ago so good he's kept, and now such a thing has to happen. Gott sei dank, he's up and out again, but I tell you it was a scare!" "I should say so. And how is Tillie?" "Mrs.

"Right that same nail is there yet, Mrs. Meyerburg. Oser we should touch one thing!" "I can tell you it's a great comfort, Mrs. Fischlowitz, I got such a tenant as you in there." "When you come to visit me, Mrs. Meyerburg, right to the last nail like you left it you find it. Not even from the kitchen would I let my Sollie take down the old clothes-line what you had stretched across one end."

You remember Felix such a beautiful bad little boy he was what always used to fight your Sollie underneath the sink." "Gott in Himmel, so this is Felix's little girl!" "Ja, this is already his second. Come, Aileen, to grandma and say good afternoon to the lady."

"Put your hands in the pockets, Mrs. Fischlowitz. Deep, eh?" "Finer you can believe me as I ever had in my life before.
