THIS IS SOME DICTIONARY Arabia Affair Used by Scholars Is In 20 Volumes and Weighs About 100 Pounds. The ponderous dictionaries of En- rope, even the famous many-volutned etymological Index of Larousse, which is the monumental work of all modern tongues, are more than surpassed, says the New York Sun, by the Arabic dictionaries of 500 years ago, which are still the great authority for stu dents. In that language. The Arabic dictionary most nsed by scholars who are familiar with no other language Is In 20 quarto vol umes and weighs close to 100 pounds. There is a 50-pound ten-volume abridg ment of It, presumably for use at home. This and virtually all the Ara bic dictionaries were made in the time of the Harun-al-Rashld. The Islamic empire Is credited by Moslems with two great eras. The first was that of conquest, when the only history was written with the sword. Then came -Ltur!es of Mo hammedan domination, when the Mos lems peacefully held the empires they had conquered in Asia and In the Ibe rian peninsula. During these art and literature flourished and the Arabic dictionary was born. In Arabia the flower of this period was in the golden time of Caliph Harun-al-Rashld. Each of the words that have been familiar in the dally life of the no mad Arabs for centuries has an enor mous number of synonyms. The lion, for example, was feared by villagers and bunted not only for sport but as a matter of necessity. Therefor In the Arabic dictionary the Uon has more than a hundred different names. The camel was the sole means of transportation across the thirsty des erts and Is characterized in 122 dif ferent ways. But above all, the horse and the sword were the two great stand-bys of the Arab. There are more than 200 words that convey Ideas of "horse" sod "sword." All other familiar words, such as tent. Sock, herds, ws ter, woman, sun and air, havt long lists of synonyms that ire Interchange able and In constant use. This affords some slight explanation why Arabic dictionaries are of large site. Arabic, so the Arabs say, was the language of the Babylonians, and It Is also contended by them that It was the tongue which Abraham spoke. NOW PREFER USEFUL GIFTS Younger Generation of Women Said te Look for Utility When Present Are In Question. One must mingle with the younger generation to comprehend the chang ing standards of domestic life. Those tilings once the heart's desire of wom en have not lost their charm, we are told. While the proverhlul route to s man's heart has not rliaugrd Its road bed, and good cooking Is still the trnde-tunrk of a deslruble wife, yet anniversary expressions of a bus band's love ore said to be changing Its form. The new note Is utility. This Is ex emplified by a story that comes to us from one who recently visited a young couple while they discussed their ap proaching anniversary. "I think I shall get Ruth a neckluce," the yming husband said. Ruth demurred. What then did she wish, was his query, with the suggestion of a diamond or a piece of mahogany furniture, or some other embellishment for the home. "If you really Insist on a present," she said, 'T have always wanted or electric washer and t vacuum clean er." This suggests the story of the negro bridegroom who, when the honeymoon wnned. brought home a heavily mir rored dressing table and a wnshtuh. "Now,.Mundy," he said, "you can sld dnwn In front of this and watch yo'self starve to death, or you can usa this tub and earn yo' llvln'." Omaha Bee.

Phone UT ONE'S JOB MUST COME FIRST Salary Should Bs a Sscondary Object for the Man Who Is Anxious te Advance. I have never known a young man to advance far when he thought much about bis salary while at work, or who let that salary have anything to do with the Interest he was putting Into his Job. l"he Job Is the chance, the op portunity, to show what you are made of. to show what you have for sale your ability, your personality. If you have something unusual for sale you may be sure you have what every employer Is always looking for. If you are alert, enthusiastic, original. If you try to stamp everything that goes through your hands with superior ity, you may be sure that you. will soon find a place at the front with commensurate salary. On the other band, the man who drags through Just onough work to get by, who gets to his Job when he bos to and watches the clock for time to go home will not see his salary envel ope fatten very rapidly. Quibbling over one's salary ha spoiled many a career. It Is not what you ere paid for doing, but what you do that you are not paid for that is the key to the position above you. This Is almost Invariably the case. The service you render which you are not obliged to give is the thing that attracts your employer. Orison Svrott Mardcn In Chicago Dally News. Thermometer Deterioration. Even thermometers become old, and consequently Inaccurate with age, mer curial Instruments ' reading too high and spirit Instruments too low. In the former case the bulb appears to shrink, thus forcing the quicksilver too far up the stem. This gradual shrinkage is supposed to be due to the fact that the t-xternnl presoure on the bulb may be considerably higher than the Internal pressure, the air as fnr as possible hav ing been removed before the srlnss Is sealed. On the other hand, the spir it thermometer Is sealed with the bulb covered In a freezing mixture, in order to lock up In the glass as much nlr ns possible. The instrument thus Blarts with the Internal pressure which In time nppeaiH to be reduced cither by expansion of the glass under the In ternal pressure or by leakage. Scleu f'fli .Amerlcnn.
