Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ...around here? Abram. Well, I tell you. Vera will have nobody for a husband other than a doctor of medicine. Hyman. That may be. But your business is with your books, and don't come mixing in to other affairs. Stick to your books, and the best of health to you! Anna. Interrupting. What do you care if our son has his say?
