Mexican servants, Of which there are a
large number attached to most house
holds. are satisfied with small wages.
They consider four dollars per month q
munificent salary. and in time get rich On
it, according to their ideas of wealth.
They sleep rolled up in their serapas on
the floor, in the court, wherever it is
most convenient, require few clothes,
and those generally the gifts or cast off
garments of their employers, and are in
variably pious and apparently contented.
Indeed, | have observed that the poorer
they are and the lower down in the social
scale, the more pious and contented they
are sure to be. AS class they are the
most honest, obliging and simple-hearted
folks ever met Their household work
is arranged very Systematically. There
is one creade whose sole business it is to
make tortillas; another to do the market
inc and act as steward another who does
nothing but cook; another to wash !;
another to keep the house tidy; others TO
wait on table and attend the children, to
brush the mistress's hair and shake the
dust from her dresses (which literally
sweep the dirty streets whenever they go
out. American short skirts being con-
sidered drcadfully imnodest), beside
