Nietzsche speaks very scornfully of

save the highest cheer, the brightest
thoughts, the gentlest attentions, for
the friends. One should always keep
some impersonal topics OF converse
ton ready. SO that your thoughts to-
gether should not huddle down to the
sordid atmosphere Of narrow spaces.
BE not only the sunshine to your
friend, but be a broad outlook and a
wide view! Love must have space and

Human life offers us nothing else
so beautiful as real friendship; not

Famous Pearls In klssorv

We read OF pearis--oyster pearls,
as they were called-in Chinese rec.
ords dating back nearly 5000 years
land Persian history and Persian poetry
abound In mention of the pearl M a
symbol OF purity, and this association
Iof ideas has persisted until the pres.
ent day. But 1t is curious fact that
though we have read so much about
famous pearls which have played great
parts In history, there is hardly ar
authentic instance OF any pearl being
still In existence which has any an
-tiquity OF Its own or made history Of
any Importance. This Is partly due
ito the fact that valuable pearls were
nearly always stolen In the brave days
icf yore. and their unlawful owners
had good reason for concealing their
historical identity.

Central Arabia, which has been

its secrets to NJ. Barclay Raunkiaer.
who has reported to the Royal Dan
jsh Geographical Society that he ar
rived at Muscat in Oman on May
after a perilous trip through the in
terror Arabian deserts.
Only meager details of the trip
have been received by the society,
but these give tn members reason
for believing that the exploring en-
petition has been highly successful.
The explorer left Copenhagen
last November, but his real exploYa-
tons did not begin until he reach
ed Basra from Bag I'D in January

ance of the Vail of Basra he was
able to continue his journey to Ko-

chose to go through the desert via
the GASES of Bereda and Riad in the
heart of Central Arabia, inhabited
by the Wahabis, and thence east
ward through the oasis of Mofuf to
the coast. That he succeeded in
this dangerous plan Is indicated by
his message to the society. ...

ceived speaks of the excellent, re-
suits which he obtained from his
anthropologieal, geological and bot
anical observations. M, Raunkiaer
