AS a BUSINESS AND FAMILY MAN
The fault finder says that u Jew sis
close in his Bargains. Why shouldn't
he be. That very fault finder, if he had
the same financial instinct, would be
three times as greedy, and not onc-half
as generous. The American goes out TO
have q good time q day by the sea,
shore, or u night at the theatre. The
chances arc ten to one he goes alone, or
with a party 81 men. The jew, if it is
III the daytime, takes not only his wife,

all, they enjoy themselves, for the jew,
unlike the Gentle, is easily amused, and
can find pleasure among those Cf his

| This is us it should be. The consequence
is, you very seldom hear OF divorces
among the jews. As people, they love
fun and good living, and are willing to
pay for both. They are tile best patrons
the theatres have; they adore good
| music, and even among the poorer
classes, little money will be saved, that
