girl asked him to step into the physi
cian’s office the Jew rushed forward
to the doctor, shook his hand vigorously
and said jovially: “Well, here I am
again, doctor.”
But the medicine man realized that
lie had never met this patient. So, after
a few minutes of cursory examination,
he said:
“Well, the medicine certainly did do
you good. You arc rapidly improving.
I suggest that you continue taking the
medicine I gave you the first time.”
. Proud Montefiore
Such a story would have to he an
old one, for these days you don’t find
many of our poor Jews, much less
wealthy ones, who take time off on a
train journey to say their prayers. It
was true, however, of Sir Moses Monte-
fiorc, the famous English philanthro
pist.
One time, as Sir Moses was riding in
a train between London and Glasgow
and the afternoon sun began to wane,
he stood up in his compartment, went
to a corner and began to say the reg
ulation afternoon prayer. His fellow-
traveler in the compartment, a non-
Jew, began to sneer at Sir Moses and
to cast insulting remarks. But no re
sponse came from the figure in the
corner.
When he had finished his prayers Sir
Moses turned to the man and asked:
“Can you change a hundred-pound
note?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t,” the fellow
replied.
"How about a fifty?”
"No.”
“But surely a ten?”
"Not even that.”
Whereupon Montefiore remarked:
“Then I can’t see what makes you so
stuck up in the presence of a Jew who
happens to he following the dictates of
his religion.”
