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.

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
