'My promise yes. The ring no. 'But on what ground? 'She says I gave it to her. Sugarman clucked his tongue. 'Tututu! Better if we had followed our old custom, and the man had worn the engagement-ring, not the woman! 'In the workshop, Elias went on miserably, 'she flashes it in my eyes. Everybody makes mock. Oh, the Jezebel! 'I should summons her! 'It would only cost me more.
"Yes." Miriam burst into a fit of incredulous laughter. "As if Daniel would marry into a miserable family like that!" "It is as good as ours," said Mendel, with white lips. His daughter looked at him astonished. "I thought your children had taught you more self-respect than that," she said quietly. "Mr. Sugarman is a nice person to be related to!" "At home, Mrs.
If Mendel had been at home, he might have found a counter-analogy. As it was, Sugarman re-tucked Nehemiah under his arm and departed triumphant, almost consoled for the raid on his provisions by the thought of money saved. In the street he met the Shalotten Shammos. "Blessed art thou who comest," said the giant, in Hebrew; then relapsing into Yiddish he cried: "I've been wanting to see you.
"I am very glad to have such phylacteries on my arm, as you put it," he responded. "I fancy I should be a good deal froomer if my phylacteries were like that." "What, aren't you frooms?" she said, as they joined the hungry procession in which she noted Bessie Sugarman on the arm of Daniel Hyams. "No, I'm a regular wrong'un," he replied. "As for phylacteries, I almost forget how to lay them."
I have several extra fine maidens in my eye. Come now, don't look so angry. How much commission vill you give me if I find you a maiden vid a hundred pound?" "The maiden!" thundered Daniel. Then it dawned upon him that he had said a humorous thing and he laughed. There was merriment as well as mysticism in Daniel's blue eyes. But Sugarman went away, down-hearted.
"Yes, you will," said Sugarman, "when you learn how fine a man he is." The flush of confusion and trepidation already on Leibel's countenance became a rosy glow of modesty, for he could not help overhearing what was being said, owing to the lull of the master tailor's machine. "Tell me, then," rejoined Eliphaz.
"And then, Mawruss," Abe went on, "Rashkin hears that the I. O. M. A. is going to make you a permanent loan, so he goes to see Sugarman too." "That's right," Morris agreed. "And he says to Sugarman that so long as Sugarman is got to search the title to your house he wouldn't have to search the title to Rashkin's house, because both houses stands on the same piece of property.
"But if I do this thing for you I shall want a pound more," rejoined Sugarman. "A pound more!" echoed Leibel, in dismay. "Why?" "Because Rose Green's hump is of gold," replied Sugarman, oracularly. "Also, she is fair to see, and many men desire her." "But you have always your five per cent, on the dowry." "It will be less than Volcovitch's," explained Sugarman.
"An excellent thing!" said Sugarman. "A wife who squints can never look her husband straight in the face and overwhelm him. Who would quail before a woman with a squint?" "I could endure the squint," went on Leibel, dubiously, "but she also stammers." "Well, what is better, in the event of a quarrel? The difficulty she has in talking will keep her far more silent than most wives.
"And apparently you got none." "No," said Sugarman, growing wroth at the recollection. "He said ve are not in Poland." "Quite true." "Yes, but I gave him an answer he didn't like," said Sugarman. "I said, and ven ve are not in Poland mustn't ve keep none of our religion?" His tone changed from indignation to insinuation. "Vy vill you not let me get you a vife, Mr. Hyams?
