SPANISH SELF-TAUGHT. By Franz Thimm; pp. 83, 12 mo.; Kansas City Book 
and News Co., 1880; 25 cents. 
This will be found a very useful hand-book to the people of the West, so 
many of whom have business and social relations with those of Old and New 
Mexico, where the Spanish language is almost universally spoken. It consists of 
a grammar and a reader, with English pronunciation and translation of every 
word, phrase, and sentence ; so that by it alone a stranger can make himself un- 
derstood by a native wherever the Spanish language is spoken, or written.
