At this, relates the Chicago Chroni-

narrator to tell the whole truth and
nothing but the truth" there was
much conscious and blushing dissent.
"Methinks you all protest too

guarded and secluded as they are in
Spain. Perhaps no better illustration
of this characteristic could be given
than the manner in which a courtship
Is carried on there, which is the same
to-day that ii was in the time of Don
Quixote and Sancho Panza. The young
man gives outward and visible manifes-

under his loved ones window. AS most
families there live in apartment houses,
the window in question may be Ave
or six stories in the air. But under
the window some five or more times

If the lady does not wish to discour-
age him she will occasionally appear at
the window. On the other hand, If she
is obdurate she does not appear, and
finally he gives up his suit and ceases
to haunt the street. Presuming, how
ever, case in which the course OF true
