ishment, and the kind who have too much
The first kind of babies starve because
their stomachs are too weak to digest the
amount of food necessary for their growth
and healthful development, and the other

begins, from stomach and bowel disor-
ders.

however mild, are not what is demanded.

TEXAS AT THE POLLS.
Light Vote Cast on the Three COnsti-
tutiOnaI Amendments

tutiOnaI Amendments
Dallas Tex, Aug. 3-The lightest vote
ever cast al genral election in Texas
was probably polled to-day on the three
constitutional amendments. Returns re-
ceived up to II p. m. indicate that not to
exceed one-eighth of the voters of the
state took the pains to go to the polls.
This apathy was especially pronounced
through North Texas.
The irrigation amendment and the
amendment TO validate the public improve
ment bonds of certain new counties. and
which the state bought with the perma-
nent school fund to the amount of about
100000, appear TO have been adopted;
but the amendment to permit certain coun-
ties to issue bonds to subsidize new rail-
roads is probably defeated.
The strongest opposition to the irrigation
amendment is said 10 have been found in
the votes of East Texas. The fate of all
the amendments will probably turn on the
extent Of the vote in Western Texas
where The principal and direct interest is
conferred as they are operative there.
