A Pearl OF the Desert.

After a certain degree Of intimacy
had been established among. us NAH
mould (says Albert Rhodes, writing in
the July GALAXY Of q visit to a Bedouin
sheik) saluted me with than usual
aflability as | approached his tent one
day, the salutation being, "Peace be
with you," which, as will be observed,
is quite simple compared TO the extrav-
greetings of Cairo, where an acquaint-
ance's manner of saying good morning
often is, "May your day be white; !"
to which the inevitable response is,
"May yours be like milk"
lie asked M il | liked his people, and
If 1 did not think they were happy. My
swcrs were such us he expected. There
was something else, however, on his
mind, which after a silence he commu.
nicated to me. He invited me to come
and live with him, saying that il l did
so he would give me in marriage n
handsome young girl called "The
PEARL" who was one of his relatives,
and he pointed to where she was at that
