In the days of the American colonies, Jacob Stein came to Philadelphia from Germany. He was a well educated young man, with fine dreams, and who studied law. However, fancy words don't fill mouths, and so to begin with, his new career in America was that of a door-to-door salesman. At first Jacob would sit alone in his room at night, reading the words of Qoheleth.
