The Bedouin Is decidedly a some iadividaal, lithe of limb like hk seats and 'with a cafe an Iait colored sUa. He has a sharp profile, excelled teeth. He often wears a stubby black beard and has beantifmuy penciled eye brows, and, thovgh .differing entirely In language, hi phyatgw and type, be closely resembles the Bedeam found In the Mahrt and Gara mountains. Fur thermore, the mode of life la the same dwelling m caves 'when necessary, feet having; permanent abodes on the lower lands and they have several other striking points In common. Greet ings take place between the Arabian Bedoalas and the Socotran Bedouins in similar fashion by touching each cheek and. then rubbing the nose We found' the Bedouin of Mount Haghler fond of dancing and playing his teberane, and also peculiarly lax In his religious . observances, and, though ostensibly conforming to Mo hammedan practice, he observes next to none of their precepts, and it Is pre cisely the same with the Bedouins wham we met in the Gara mountains. There Is certainly nothing African about the Socotran Bedouin. There fore I am inclined to consider him as a branch of Sat aboriginal race which Inhabited Arabia, with a language of Ms own.

"Do employers- hire men and then pay them what they think them worth or do they fix aalariea and then get such men aa they can to fit them?" asked a young man who had been go ing through the experience of changing his work. T won't try to answer my question, but I win tell yon a story. I called upon a manager to talk with him about a place of responsibility which I knew be had to offer. He seemed taken with me and I think had his mind made up to employ me. Final ly he asked me bow much salary I would expect: " T should say about $150 a month,' I answered. "Immediately his face fell. Tm sor ry, be said, 'but I expect to pay $2,500 a year, and I want a. $2,500 man. Good morning.' "From there I went to Inquire about another place. Again I seemed to suit, and we got to the question of traces. I knew the firm was not in the habit of spending much money. If I was to get the position I must bid low, and so I suggested $125 a month. Tm sorry,' was the reply, 'but we can't pay more than $100. I know you're worth more and the work is worth more, bnt we haven't got the money to spend, that's all. Goad morning.' "New York Post Union Pacific Plan a Trip to This Wonderful Land This Winter.
