A Knowledge of Spanish Indispensable. 



American youths who wish to add Span- 

 ish to their linguistic equipment should 

 copy the example of the studious young 

 Germans. A German clerk on his way out 

 to the Americas will work away on his 

 Spanish grammar on shipboard, and di- 

 rectly he lands he will make use of what- 

 ever he has acquired in the way of useful 

 phrases ; he makes of his native interlocu- 

 tors so many teachers of pronunciation. 

 The fine points in grammar and pronuncia- 

 tion — and they are many — he does not 

 trouble himself greatly about at first, leav- 

 ing to a later time the perfecting of himself 

 in the details of the language. But from 

 the very beginning he does not neglect the 

 grammar, that basis of all accurate knowl- 

 edge. 



Notwithstanding the depression in all 

 lines, young men well qualified are in de- 

 mand, and in fact are difficult to secure 

 even at high salaries; but there are few 

 places for the man of one language, or for 

 the man who has but a smattering of two 

 or three. Nor are there many opportunities 

 for the man who wants to come to Spanish- 

 America and be taught his business and the 

 language. The country wants prepared 

 men who can do a definite task and who 

 have the linguistic preparation to 'deal with 

 the people in their own tongue. — U. S. Gov. 

 Report. 



While the finest Cuban tobacco has 

 less than 2 per cent, of nicotine, the rank- 

 est Kentucky tobacco contains nearly 

 8 per cent. — Mobile (Ala.) Herald.
