the public schools and gymnasia. He was for four years an office clerk for Stern Brothers, tobacco manufacturers,
and for three years correspondence clerk for a large machine establishment, after which he went to Prussia in the
interests of an ivory, meerschaum, amber and pearl importing house, having charge of their goods at a commercial

and four years later engaged in the manufacture of vinegar for himself. In 1882 he came to New York city and in
1883 removed to Tonawanda, Erie county, where he has since been a successful vinegar manufacturer. He is familiar
