SuEStSNtu, NNLullStNig NHlAACh away DJ Shimko's enthusiasm.
 If the deal goes through" Shimko declared in burst of generosity, q would even pay for the coffee myself"
 And when would you bring the fel' Ter hereT" Zamp asked.
 "I would see him this afternoon yet" Shimko replied as he opened the store door, "and I would telephone you sure, by Dachtel's place, at o'clock"
 Zamp, full of gratitude. shook hands with his landlord.
 If l would got such a head like you got It to think ont schemes, MT. Shlm- ko," he said rorvcntly. "I would be millionaire. bet ycr,"
 The thinking out part Is nothing" ShimkO said as be turned to leave, Any blame fool could think out scheme, y'undeystand, but 1t takes pretty bright feller to make 1t workw
 If fCller wouldn't be in business for himself" ShimkO said to Isaac Mel sclson as they sat Tn Wasserbauers cafe that afternoon. "he might just as well never come over from Russland at an."
 "I told you before. Mir Shimko," Mel sclson tctorted. "I nm from Lcmberg gebOrn."
 "Oestreich oder Russland, what is the diCfcrencc?" Shlmko asked. If a feIler Is working for somebody else, nobody cares who he Is or what he is, while if he's got a business of his own, understand me. everybody would re- spcct him. even if he would be born in. we would say for example, China"
 Sure. know. Mir Shlmko," Meisel- son rcjoncd but there Is businesses anu businesses. and what for a busl- ness Is a small retuI clothing store on Canal street,"
 Small the store may be, alu't deny ing It." Shimko said; but uln't 1t bet ter fellcr does big business In a small store as small business in a big storc?"
 If he does a big business, ycs.' Mel seIson admitted; but if a feller does a big business why shoud he want to got a partner"
 "Ain't I just telling you he don't want no pOrtner?" Shimko interrupted. And as for doing big business, 1 bet yer We could drop in on the feller any time and We would find the store ! full of people,"
 "Gewiss," Melseson commented. three people playing auction pinOchle In a small store k a big crowdw
 No auction piuochle gets played in that store, Mciscison The feller has working by him two cutters and three salesmen, and he makes 'em earn their money. Only yesterday am in the store, and If you would believe me, Meiselson, his own landlord be wouldn't talk to at all, so busy he is"
 Tn that case what for should he need ne for a partnerI l couldn't under stand at all" Meiselson declared.
 Neither could l." ShlmEo replied, but q feller like you, which he would soon got S2,OOO to invest, needs him for partner. A feller like Zamp would keep you straight MeiscISOn. What you want is somebody which he is go- Ing to make you work"
 What dye mean, going to make mo | work?' MeiSelsOn asked indignantly. 'I am working just us hard as you are, I MT. Shimko. When a feller Is selling toilet soaps and perfumeries, MT. Shim- ko, he couldn't see bis trade only cer- 1 tain hours of the day"
 T ain't kicking you are not working, Melselson," Shlmko said hastily. All I am telling you Is what for a job Is selling toilet soaps and perfumery? You got limited trade there MeiSel- son, because when 1t comes to toilet | soaps, understand me, how many peo- pie takes 1t so particular? bet yer with a hundred people, Meiselson, eightyuses laundry soap, fifteen ganvers soap from hotels and saloons, and the rest buys wunSt in six months a i've 1 cent cake of soap. As for perfumery, | MelSelson, for dollar bill you could 1 get enough perfumery to make q thou sand people smell like an Italiener bar Der shop; whereas clothing, Meiselson, everybody must got 10 wear 1t. If you are coming to compare clothing with toilet soap for a business, Meiselson, there ain't no more comparison as gold and putty"
 Meiselson remained silent
 "FurthprmOre," ShimkO continued, If Zamp sees a young feller like you, which even your worst enemy must got to admit 1t, MeiselsUn, you are a swell dresser, and make a fine, up-to- date appearance understand me, he would maybe reconsider his decision not to take partner"
 Did he say he wouldn't take q part
