Celia, brought to the county clinic lhst
Saturday in the arms of a sixyearbld
sister. The mother was carrying two

derfed, and just recovering from an i'll
ness
Dr. Kluttz advised the proper diet,
and the look of despair that came over

q prescription beyond her power to fill.
Here was ease for me-two babies. a
mother willing, and yet unable to get
or do that which was needed to save
her babies.

careful to shut the door as l came up,

COMPLIMENTS GAS COMPANY.

From Phoenix (Ariz) Gazette.
The price of gas in FL Paso is to be
reduced by the FL Paso Gas and EIec-
trio company another five cents per
1000 feet. and the rate after July first
will be $1.35. During the six years thai
the present management has owned the
FL Paso Gas and Electric company the
business has increased six times. Here
is one western company at least, that
recO gnizes the good sense of the policy
adopted by few eastern companies to
lower the rate to the minimum that
will increase the consumption to the
maximum for the population, resulting
in greater revenues and better satisfa.;-
ton among the patrons. All the traf-
fic will bear" is a pig-headed policy in
the gas business. Phenicians are pay
