Headed by Judge W. 1). Shepard of
the United States Circuit Court of the
Western District of Florida, a party
of Pensacola automoblllsts spent yes
terday ip. Montgomery eight seeing and
resting. ' The" party drove through the
country from Pensacola, a distance of
1(0 miles, In a big touring car, and
will continue their trip to Atlanta.
All report a delightful trip, whleh,
however, at times became strenuous
when a few muddy streaks were en
countered. Judge Shepard enjoyed the
tflp thoroughly and yet he took a
train for Atlanta last night for the last
stage of the trip. Clerk F. W. Marsh
of Judge Shephard’s court, and the
other members of the party will con
tinue the Journey to Atlanta In the
touring car thla morning. They will
leave early this morning over the
Mount Meigs Road.
The party la composed of Judge
Shephard. Mr. and Mrs. Marsh and
Messrs. De Silva and Stewart. Mrs.
Marsh enjoyed the trip as thoroughly
as any of the men in the party and
bore with equal equanimity' the few
hardships through which the party
passed.
Kach member of the party Is enthu
siast over the roads of Montgomery
Cbunt'y. ’ tt wa» a treat to the gueats
and to the overworked machine when
the lige gravelled roads of Montgomery
County were reached.
‘‘If all the roads between Montgom
ery and Pensacola were as good as
those of Montgomery County an auto
mobile trip between the two cities
i would be only a pleasant Jaunt. I be
lieve It Is the best system of roads I
ever saw. The whole county lias a
right to be proud of these magnificent
highways,” said Mr. Marsh.
The party weiit from Pensacola to
Flomaton, and from Flomaton to Rep
ton, from Repton to Midway. Coming
north they hit the worst roads of the
trip, between Midway and Butler
Springs. More than once everybody
had to dismount and assist In "jacking"
the machine out of the mud. Leaving
Butler Springs the party passed
through Fort Deposit, Sandy Ridge and
Davenport. And after leaving Daven
port they rolled on the line Montgom
ery roads and sailed Into the city In a
faw minutes. The party was high in
praise of the kindness and hospitality
iektended them by people living along
tthe route they travelled.

FOR SCHOOLS
Large Sam Expended in
Alabama.
43* ROUSES WERE ERECTED
Splendid Record Made Possible by
Rural School Law.
Daring ftt Year the Mate Donated
To the Varloaa Districts For
Purpose Of Repair
Mn.ssn.n2.
Noarly $400,000 lias been spent for
the erection and Repairing of school
houses In Alabama since Marah 2, 1007.
Figures from the books of the State
Educational Department alsb show that
this money Has beOn expended upon the
erection of 43S school houses In the
rural district, and for repairs on sov
enty-two rural school houses.
This splendid record for education in
Alabama was made possible through
the passage of ths Rural School House
Daw during the spring of 1907.
Through the means of this law the
State has donated to the rural dis
tricts of the various counties for the
purpose of repairing and erecting
school houses, the slim of $99,599.52.
Under the law $1,000 Is appropriated
annually to each county for the school
houses, but the appropriation Is de
pendent upon the net proceeds of the
tag tax. Also In order, to secure the
appropriation from the State It la
neoessary for the people to raise local
ly not less than the amount appropri
ated by the State, and the State can
not give more than $200 to a district
during any one year.
State Superintendent of Education
Harry C. (Tunnels, said' yesterday: "On
March 1 of this year the State Auditor
Informed me that sufficient funds had
accrued from the tag tax from which
the school fund is supplied, to justify
the department to approve warrants
to the aount of $900 for each county
of the State.
"Many applications have been filed in
the office during the past six months
from the various counties, and the de
partment Is sending out warrants
amounting to $12,150 for rural schools.
"The fact that only $800 Is available
at the present time does not mean
that the balance of the appropriation
for each county, $400, will not bo
available thle year. In fact. I am of
the opinion that the balance of the
appropriation will be available to the
department within the next sixty
days.”

Sunday School Lesion:
“Philip and the Ethiopian ”
It Deals With An Outreaching Religion; Old Is Linked to the New
by Reports of Death of King of Abyssinia.
HI WnjJAH X. ELkIS.
The reported death of the irreat Ne
gus of Abyssinia, King Keiralek. links
this old Bible story to present-day
news. The Ethiopia of the New Tes
tament episode is generally Identified
with Abyssinia, the country which a
few years ago startled civilisation by
defeating the forces of Italy. Abys
sinia is an old and proud nation, and
nominally Christian. Its ruler claims
descent not only from the Candace of
the present lesson, but also from King
Solomon.
The outstanding character in the in
cident which constitutes this Sunday
school Lesson is the prime minister of
the queen of Ethiopia. The common
Impression Is that eunuchs are mere
menial servants and palace messen
gers. Quite the contrary is frequently
the case, as In this Instance. For fif
teen years past one of the most potent
figures In the national affairs of China
has been a certain eunuch, who has
been raised to princely rank. Prob
ably the recent overthrow of Yuan
Shi-Kal was In part due to this
eunuch’s reactionary machinations. In
winning Candace's prime minister
Philip achieved a distinctive victory
for Christianity.
The Great Procession.
The scene of this dramatic meeting
between Philip and the eunuch was a,
desert place on the way between Je
rusalem and* Gaza. The spectacle makes
an appeal to the Imagination, for this
eunuch was one of the proselytes of
the gate, believers In Judaism, who
was on his way from the temple at Je
rusalem. Alone he was, except for his
retinue, yet he was a part of the most
significant procession of his day. From
all parts of the known world devout
Jews and converts made their way to
and from the hill of Zion. They were
a multitude In number and an influ
ence beyond measure.
Yet vastly greater Is the procession
which today goes up etv>ery Sabbath to
the new Zion, the house of God. There
Is stimulus for one's faith in a con
templation of the Innumerable host of
men, In teeming cities and In desert
highways, who are going to and from
the church of the Christ whom Philip
expounded to the Ethiopian. The mod
ern Zion Is represented by tho stately
cathedrals of Europe, by the New Eng
land meeting houses, by the great
Christian temple in Uganda; by
churches in every heathen land, and
men of all colors and races and condi
tions are following In the train of the
Ethiopian eunuch. Whoso has open
eyes may see, like the servant of Is
rael’s ancient prophet, a whole host ot
the army of God In procession to Zion.
What a Person Rends.
One unconsciously puts his fellow
travelers into certain classifications by
what he sees them reading. The kind
of literature which engrosses one Is a
pretty clear index to one's character,
culture, and calibre. Even the social
status of a stranger may be reason
ably gauged by the kind of book which
he Is reading. It Is Interesting to re
call how a common book has brought
together many of the best friends: a
kinship of taste In literature Is attll
one of the most delightful ties that
bind friends.
It was well for the eunuch that out
on the desert, where nobody was at
hand to pass Judgment upon him, he
did not Indulge In some furtive
glimpses Into the latoat issue of Ths
“Jerusalem Scandal-Monger." He was
engrossed, rather. In reading a scroll
of Holy Writ, thus employing his time
to the best advantage. He knew ths
art of beguiling a Journey, and ha
used It as an opportunity for the cult
ure of his best self. Many persona who
travel are Idle all tho while; others,
more careful of their time, plan that
even the momentary passage through
a tunnel shall minister to their spirit
ual development. One of the most
striking bits of recent magazine poetry
expressed a worker's worship while
riding In the New York Subway. Some
persons carry pockst volumes of good
literature—In most cases, of course,
the Bible Itself—that they may thus
minister to their spirits in moments of
enforced leisure.
The Hard Book.
It may frankly be contested that
there Is a great deal of cant In much
that la said concerning the Bible. The
advice la given Indiscriminately to all
classes of people to read the Bible, as
If all parts of the Bible were alike en
tertaining and Inspiring, and all minds
were fitted to extract profit from It.
The truth In that the Bible In most
places Is a hard book to read. Blble
readlng la an acquired taste. Even
those who do faithfully peruse the
Scriptures do not always do so Intelli
gently. The class to which the eunuch
belonged Is a large one: readers who
do not understand what they read. Nor
are all so honest as he. Some are con
tent with the mere sound of the famll
ldr and sacred words, and are little
troubled that they do not discern the
deeper meaning of the Inspired page.
The Bible needs Interpretation. It
should be read In the latest, simplest,
and best translation. Scripture should
be compared with Scripture. Every
available source of light upon Its
pages should be utilized, for It is a un
ique tribute to the Bible that It has
for centuries exhausted the fullest re
sources of scholarship In Its Interpre
tation, and still to-day the profoundest
minds are wrestling with It. Never
theless, so wonderful Is this book that
It affords platable and nutritious men
tal food for the simplest and most un
tutored Christian who takes to It the
same inquiring mind that was possess
ed by the Ethiopian eunuch.
A Wayside Meeting.
Whoever Is running Clod's errands Is
sure of delightful surprises by the
way. Philip was a sent man. a mes
senger who employed lffe In going
where the Lord bade him. So, follow
ing the strange command to leave the
thriving new world in Samaria, he
went southl toward Oaza on what he.

well have considered a wild goose
chase. We never can know what glad
Always Tired
To Get Strength
Whan your nervous and physical systems are tired out—worn
out—they need something more than food, to rerive them.
They need medicines—concentrated products of nature, that
aof as nature planned they should do, in helping along the functions
of life, when ordinary methods fail.
When it’s a woman—Cardui.
Cardui is not for men. There are plenty of good medicines
or tonics for men—but only one, we hare perfect oonfldeooe in, for
women*—Cardui.
We know what Cardui will do, for tired, worn-out, sick,
miserable women.
We know'what it has done, for thousands of women in distress,
and what it has done for others, it will surely do for you.
Mrs. Margaret L. Pheral, of Newburg, Ind., writes: “I had
sick headache, continuous hurting in my right
side, was always tired and every month had

encountered an experience which Qod
had been making ready for him. and
which meant everything to the Ethio

the world. The Christian Cbarch
would not willingly relinquish the his
tory of this small Bible class by the
roadside—a class smaller than that of
the most discouraged teacher to-dav;
and no more fraught with consequen
ce* to those concerned than many an
other small class has been.
The Mllstone la the Fsrum.
In the center of ancient Roma's
Forum was a goldgi mllstone. Thi
ther all roads led. One must start
from any point In the empire and
travel directly to this spot, which was
considered the center of the known
world. So In Scripture all roada lead
to Christ. Philip started at the Old
Testament passage which troubled the
official, and straightway led him to
Jesus, who was the fulfillment of tha
prophet’s vision

Baptist eg the Nations.
The Ethiopian, convinced of the
truth of Deacon Philip's words, went
all the way Into dlsclpleshlp, and was
Initiated Into membership In the com
pany of Christ's trlends. He was the
first of a long train of people of other
races who have Joined themselves to
Jesus Christ. To-day the average of
these accessions in non-Christian lands
Is more than four hundred every twen
ty-four hours. The Gospel Is doing
for them all that it ever did for the
white man.
The Ethiopian eunuch, the Chinese
coolie, the Japanese warrior, the In
dian pundit, all find that Christ la aa
much to them as ho ever was to Philip
or any other of the long train of di
sciples. And Christendom’s best con
tribution to the solution of present
world problems Is what Philip gave to
Candace’s prime minlsaer—the good
news of a personal Christ, who for
gives sins and transforms lives.

Rev. H. J. Mlkell at Noon Day Ser
vice Talks oa the Subject of
“Success Through
Failure.”
Hev. H. J. MIR ell of Christ Church,'
Nashville, yesterday) mgjle the flrM,
of hla two addreews at the noonday
services In thu Majestic Theatre. He
spoke on "Success Through Failure."
"We men are likely to be discour
aged over our failures lh religious
life," he said. "To show how we may
make our failures successes, we may
take Jacob for an Illustration.
"From the earliest days, he was a
supplanter, a coward, a briber and a
deceiver, and yet. In spite of all this,
there was something noble In him.
He was always ready to acknowledge
his faults ,yet always bound In sin.
He always had the spiritual working
within him. Even when he came be
fore Isaac, and said that he was Esau,
and lied, he had a higher motive; he
wanted to secure his father's blessing.
"At first, It seems as If his mean
ness, his weeknesses, his cowardice
would drive out his higher motives.
But Jaoob was determined and reso
lute. Finally he wrestled with the
worst in him and his manhood won
out. He never gave up trying, and
so he succeeded.
"Eaoh failure means only another
attempt and more attempts mean ulti
mate success.
"It you give up trying, If you say,
‘M'y passions are too strong for me,'
you can never succeed. But when we
say. ‘No, there Is better In me than I
have Just showed; I will try again,' and
really do try. we Invariably succeed.
"I would rather see a man with his
eyes on heaven, occasionally stumble,
than see a man with hla eyes ever on
the ground, escape the pitfalls through
excessive prudence.
"A man has got to fall into sin
sometimes. The tenor of one's life
Is hard But If you love God and re
alise your weakness, failure will not
deter you. Out of your striving will
come strength and success.
