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. Nineteenth Century.

"Do employers- hire men and then

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
