A MEXICAN WATER WAGON 



Tn Mexico City one can see almost every form of land transportation that civilization 

 has to otter. Here is the peon with a load on his back. There one sees a sled used before 

 wheels were invented, and across the way a solid-wheeled wagon of a design antedating the 

 invention of spokes. Here is a carriage, there a street-car, and farther up the street a 

 modern automobile earning passengers to a railroad train about to start out of tbe city. 

 Now and then a flying machine tries out its wings, and the gamut from the human burden- 

 bearer to the most modern carrier is run.
