Where ''Don Quixote" Was wrlttsn.

The chief glory of Argamasilla is the Casa de Medrano, a solid stone house, standing probably in the same condi- tion, but for tine decay of age, as when Cervantes was kept prisoner in its cellar. There is little doubt that this is the very place where the design of the book, which was "engendered in a prison" (see prologue to the first part of Don Quixote) was first nodded. Some twenty-five feet by eight, and sev- en feet high, with mere hole for win- dow, this unhealthy cell is 50 dark that when the original door, still partly standing, with it's iron clamps and nails, is closed it precludes the possibility of Cervantes having been able to write in it. But to say this would be to the Argamassillans personal insult--An- gust F. Jaccaci, in Scribner's..
