under year old in this state amounted
to 1872 per cent under two years, 60 per
cent under years, Ga per cent of the
total motality. The mortality of babies

total average mortality for the whole

Suppose each railroad coming into
Waco be asked TO give US one excur-

get the people into the habit Of
coming to Waco. They wou'd become
identified with our fine water, our
better stocks Of goods, our cheaper
prices and become acquainted with
our merchants.
