The point where they crossed the river was between Villar and Naves Frias, and, after an hour's walking, they struck the little rivulet called Duas Casas.

Possibly he had a Villar y Villar box with six or eight in the bottom of it; but boxes are not cigars. What he did provide his friends with was Manillas. He smoked them himself, and how careful he was of them is seen on every other page.

I never saw her equal." "And this?" questioned Rosa, taking up the package of souvenir cards. Paula indicated the destination of each one as she gave the name and address of many of her old neighbors in far-away Villar. "So you don't forget your old friends," observed my father.
