The trick is that you can "stack" different -twoway- graphs
on top of one another, like in the example below:

*-------------- begin example -------------
clear
input quintile     total       afi   rfi
             1   1096.83    717.27   .44
             2    4045.8   1430.88   .35
             3   5741.28    1747.3    .3
             4   9429.86   2414.48   .27
             5   19040.5   4688.59   .27
end

gen xtot = quintile - .2
gen xafi = quintile +.2
twoway bar total xtot, barw(.40) || ///
       bar afi xafi, barw(.4)    || ///
       line rfi quintile ,yaxis(2)  ///
       ylab(0(.1).5, axis(2))
*------------- end example --------------------

Hope this helps,
