$8,000,000 WORTH. 0F FEDERAL FUNDS ALSO FUR ALABAMA B!
All Bids For State Bonds Must
 Be In By May
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU
 -HE AGE-H HERAL.D Mout0Omery. Ala, April 24

Acting on the statement of the state highway commission that the federal government now has availa- ble S3o00,000 for road construction work in Alabama. the state highway bond commission today called for bids on Series E of the state highway bond issue authorized two years ago. The second issue will be $3.000,0 900, and all bids must be received by the bond commission not later than noon of May 31
 The bonds will bear interest at the rate of A. per cent year and will mature at the rate of S500.000 an- nually. beginning in 1943. This will make the first $50o,000 mature at the end of 20 years. The second issue will be the same as the first issue, ex- cept that the bonds of the first issue will expire beginning 1881 and ending in 1886.
 Bonds Attractive.
 Reports to Governor Brandon, Har- well c. Davis. attorney general, and John A. Rogers, chairman of the state highway commission. who compose the bond commission, indicate that financial conditions are better now than they were when the first issue was offered and also that the second issue probably will be more attrac- tive, as the bonds will run for a longer time. Experience has con Ninced bond buyers that longtime bonds are better investments than short time bonds, and this has be- come especially true now, due to the agitation for fedora. amendme mt prohibiting the free securities by etatcs and other units of of the gov ernment. Jny bonds sold prior to the effectiveness of the amendment could not be forced to pay taxes.
 The original issue. sold to Ward. Sterne x Co.,, of Birmingham and Montgomery, last year, brought a premium, and the bond commission IS hopeful that the bids this year will be more attractive.

OZARK WANTS BETTER STATION FACILITIES
Train Shed And Other Improve.
 ments To Be Asked

OZARK, Ala. April 24-Cspeeiall A petition is being circulated, and which has the backing of the Cham Der of Commcrcc, asking the Allan tie Coast line 10 include in it's list of contemplated Improvements the erection Of d shed at the passenger station.
 As it is HOW all people having business al the passenger station are compelled iu ra my weather to seek shelter m a single waiting room which is inadequate. Morever, from the waiting room 10 the place of distance and passengers alighting from or boarding a train simply have to take the weather ls they find it. The erection of shed would obviate these inconvenences.
 Petitions are being gathered from citizens of the towns between Mont gomery and Dothan asking the A. C. l.. to put better equipment on local trains Nos A and 45. The complaint is made that the coaches now in serv ice on these trains are wooden and old dirty and obsolete. Ii Is pointed out that these trains are poular with the public and so well patronized that they are generally crowded. Ii is. therefore. considered unfair that the many people who ride on these trains should be subjected to the discomfort of having to ride in old, worn coaches. Moreover, the schedule of of wreck the wooden coaches would most certainly collapse, with heavy casualties, it Is argued.
 The request is made in the petition that steel coaches be substituted for the ones now in use.

IT HAVE been watching the re-
 suits of constipation for 47
 years, since l began the prac- tice of medicine back in 1875. I am now 83 years old, and though from time to time the medical pro- fession makes some wonderfully interesting experiments and tests, the fundamentals of causes and relief in this particular ailment are unchanged.
 But the people take greater in- terest today in their health, in diet, exercise and the drinking of water. Constipation, however, will occur from time to time no matter how one tries to avoid it. Of next importance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. 1 believe in getting as close to nature as possible, hence my remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin, is mild vegetable compound. It is made of Egyptian senna and pepsin with agreeable aromatics. Chil- dren will not willingly take bitter things. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant tasting, and youngsters love it: It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written me to that effect.
 Over 10 million bottles of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are now sold every year, and 1t is the most widely bought family laxative in the world. I say family laxative because all in the family can use it with safety. It is mild enough for the infant in arms, effective in the most chronic constipation
