Salt \Salt\, n. [AS. sealt; akin to OS. & OFries. salt, D. zout,       G. salz, Icel., Sw., & Dan. salt, L. sal, Gr. [?], Russ.       sole, Ir. & Gael. salann, W. halen, of unknown origin. Cf.       {Sal}, {Salad}, {Salary}, {Saline}, {Sauce}, {Sausage}.]       1. The chloride of sodium, a substance used for seasoning             food, for the preservation of meat, etc. It is found             native in the earth, and is also produced, by evaporation             and crystallization, from sea water and other water             impregnated with saline particles.          2. Hence, flavor; taste; savor; smack; seasoning.                         Though we are justices and doctors and churchmen . .                      . we have some salt of our youth in us. --Shak.          3. Hence, also, piquancy; wit; sense; as, Attic salt.          4. A dish for salt at table; a saltcellar.                         I out and bought some things; among others, a dozen                      of silver salts.                                 --Pepys.          5. A sailor; -- usually qualified by old. [Colloq.]                         Around the door are generally to be seen, laughing                      and gossiping, clusters of old salts. --Hawthorne.          6. (Chem.) The neutral compound formed by the union of an             acid and a base; thus, sulphuric acid and iron form the             salt sulphate of iron or green vitriol.          Note: Except in case of ammonium salts, accurately speaking,                it is the acid radical which unites with the base or                basic radical, with the elimination of hydrogen, of                water, or of analogous compounds as side products. In                the case of diacid and triacid bases, and of dibasic                and tribasic acids, the mutual neutralization may vary                in degree, producing respectively basic, neutral, or                acid salts. See Phrases below.          7. Fig.: That which preserves from corruption or error; that             which purifies; a corrective; an antiseptic; also, an             allowance or deduction; as, his statements must be taken             with a grain of salt.                         Ye are the salt of the earth.            --Matt. v. 13.          8. pl. Any mineral salt used as an aperient or cathartic,             especially Epsom salts, Rochelle salt, or Glauber's salt.          9. pl. Marshes flooded by the tide. [Prov. Eng.]          {Above the salt}, {Below the salt}, phrases which have             survived the old custom, in the houses of people of rank,             of placing a large saltcellar near the middle of a long             table, the places above which were assigned to the guests             of distinction, and those below to dependents, inferiors,             and poor relations. See {Saltfoot}.                         His fashion is not to take knowledge of him that is                      beneath him in clothes. He never drinks below the                      salt.                                                --B.

Tin \Tin\, n. [As. tin; akin to D. tin, G. zinn, OHG. zin, Icel.       & Dan. tin, Sw. tenn; of unknown origin.]       1. (Chem.) An elementary substance found as an oxide in the             mineral cassiterite, and reduced as a soft white             crystalline metal, malleable at ordinary temperatures, but             brittle when heated. It is not easily oxidized in the air,             and is used chiefly to coat iron to protect it from             rusting, in the form of tin foil with mercury to form the             reflective surface of mirrors, and in solder, bronze,             speculum metal, and other alloys. Its compounds are             designated as stannous, or stannic. Symbol Sn (Stannum).             Atomic weight 117.4.          2. Thin plates of iron covered with tin; tin plate.          3. Money. [Cant] --Beaconsfield.          {Block tin} (Metal.), commercial tin, cast into blocks, and             partially refined, but containing small quantities of             various impurities, as copper, lead, iron, arsenic, etc.;             solid tin as distinguished from tin plate; -- called also             {bar tin}.          {Butter of tin}.

The neutral compound formed by the union of an             acid and a base; thus, sulphuric acid and iron form the             salt sulphate of iron or green vitriol.          Note: Except in case of ammonium salts, accurately speaking,                it is the acid radical which unites with the base or                basic radical, with the elimination of hydrogen, of                water, or of analogous compounds as side products. In                the case of diacid and triacid bases, and of dibasic                and tribasic acids, the mutual neutralization may vary                in degree, producing respectively basic, neutral, or                acid salts.

Problem \Prob"lem\, n. [F. probl[8a]me, L. problema, fr. Gr. [?]       anything thrown forward, a question proposed for solution,       fr. [?] to throw or lay before; [?] before, forward + [?] to       throw. Cf. {Parable}. ]       1. A question proposed for solution; a matter stated for             examination or proof; hence, a matter difficult of             solution or settlement; a doubtful case; a question             involving doubt. --Bacon.          2. (Math.) Anything which is required to be done; as, in             geometry, to bisect a line, to draw a perpendicular; or,             in algebra, to find an unknown quantity.          Note: Problem differs from theorem in this, that a problem is                something to be done, as to bisect a triangle, to                describe a circle, etc.; a theorem is something to be                proved, as that all the angles of a triangle are equal                to two right angles.          {Plane problem} (Geom.), a problem that can be solved by the             use of the rule and compass.          {Solid problem} (Geom.), a problem requiring in its geometric             solution the use of a conic section or higher curve.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Salt, Valley of       a place where it is said David smote the Syrians (2 Sam. 8:13).       This valley (the' Arabah) is between Judah and Edom on the south       of the Dead Sea. Hence some interpreters would insert the words,       "and he smote Edom," after the words, "Syrians" in the above       text. It is conjectured that while David was leading his army       against the Ammonites and Syrians, the Edomites invaded the       south of Judah, and that David sent Joab or Abishai against       them, who drove them back and finally subdued Edom. (Comp. title       to Ps. 60.)                Here also Amaziah "slew of Edom ten thousand men" (2 Kings       14:7; comp. 8: 20-22 and 2 Chr. 25:5-11).
