A writer in * Macmillan ’ says the lower classes in Spam have actually no education. Seventy per cent, can neither read nor write, inere are no schools to speak of in the interior: even for the higher classes there are no governesses, and it is no ancommon thing to find a weU-bom !ady not very well up to writing a letter.

Uncultured and uneducated as he is, the Spanish poor man naa the manners of a thorough gentleman.
