How was that day? the first sign of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighborhood. When I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftels, I was made once more known of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending small gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable and looked at the collection of unattractive objects: a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens and yellow envelopes. Therefore, my eyes were finally fixed on the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the film of dust (一层尘土)through which I was looking; but I was sure that a deep impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed.1.
