VEGETINE
Purifes the Blood, RenoUdtes
ana f,,CigOrGtes the
WIoIe System.

ITS MEDICINAL PROPERTIES ARE
Alternative, Tonic, Solvent and Diuretic.
vEGETINE is made exclusively from the
juices Of carefully selected barks, roots and
herbs, and so strongly concentrated, that II viii
eitectually eradicate from the system every faint
of scrOfuln, scrofuIous EEuInor, Tu-
nors, Cancer, Cnncerous Humor,
Erysipelns, salt Rheum, sypiiiiitic
Disen.es, Canker, Faintnc-s nj the
Stomach, and all diseases that arise from i'm
pure blood. scinIicR, HnGamnsniory and
Chronic IL Rhcumaii-n,, Ncuralgia, t:out
and spinal CompIniuts, can only be et-
fectually cured through the blood.
For Ulcers and Eruptive Disen.es Of the
Skin, P":.ule.. fimpie., Ito.shc.,
worm, VEGETISE has never failed to effect
permanent cure.
For Pains in the Back, Kidney Com.
Piaints, DroP.y. Female Wcakur.s,
tion, and uterine diseases and General Dc
billy, .VEGETINE acts directly upon the
causes Of these complaints. IL invigorates and
strengthens the whole system, acts upon the Sc

System, no medicine has given such per-
the blood, clesnses all Of the organs, and pos
sesses a controlling power over the nervous sys-

In fact, VEGETINE is the best remedy yet
discovered for the above diseases, and is the only
reliable BLOOD PURlFIER yet placed
before the public.

Bethany Paragraphs.

Our little village has resumed a
little more lively appearance since
the reopening of Professor Clark s
school, and especially because the
great luminary of day has again
made its appearance after an alb
sence of several weeks, which dis
peeled the lovely young snow, max
ing things look more like home,
granting us the privilege of having
better mud and deeper mud than
anybody, and causing our farmers
to begin to make preparations for
seed time.
Mr.. A. NJ. Wilson, who has been
under the treatment of Drs. Grant
& Wilson for some time, has been
down on visit but has returned.
He says that his eyes are consider
ably improved, and we do sincerely
hope that his sight may be entirely
restored and he be soon among us
again.
Rev. T. b. Fisher adds another
number to our list. We are glad to
have him with us. If all commu-
mites were full of just such men as
he, how placid the stream of life
would be. He is not only stand
ard bearer of the gospel, but one of
the great educators of the South.
We have been visited during the
past week by Mrs. L. G. White, of
Pulaski, who stopped with the fam
lily of Mr.. T. G. Jones. Also by
Miss Patterson, of Murfreesboro,
who is down on a visit for several
weeks probably. l for one had the
pleasure Of attending party given
at DR.. H. L. Patterson's on Friday
night last in compliment to the
above named young lady. Rare
beauties in whose sweet faces so
much of all that constitutes true
loneliness did seem to blend were
there in such numbers that we
would crave Orphean lips and Pla-
to's fancy to give justice to the oc-
casion. OF the young ladies who
during the evening deserve our spe
cial commentator, we would par
ticularize did not good taste include
all of them SO fully without excep
ton that discrimination would seem
odious. We extend many thanks
to the Doctor and his lady for the
enjoyment we had at their hands.
The visits of John r. Jones,
Esq'r, are as welcome as often, and
that's all the time. S.

Aspen Hill.

In short time we will be able to
buy anything we want at home from
darning needle to barrel of salt
without being forced to founder
through the mud to Pulaski. Our
merchants seem determined to meet
the demand of their customers gen
orally.
DR.. j. p. Butler d Son keep a
good stock of drugs on hand, and
according to the testimony of their
work, they know how to use them.
Mr.. Carrot, a brother in-law of
Mr.. r. H. Ragsdale, shipped from
this place last week, probably to
Louisville, $500 pounds of leaf to
bacco, for which he will realize at
least 10 cents per pound. The
whole was raised on few acres of
land. Mr.. G. has proven to tile
satisfaction of many that tobacco
beats cotton. He cultivated and
prepared the whole for sale himself,
and, besides, raised good crop of
corn.
A curious accident happened at
Mr.. w. A. Chapman's a few days
ago, by which a negro child was
burned almost to death. Its clothes
having caught from the kitchen fire,
it ran in the direction of Mr.. C.'s
dwelling, and about the time it
reached the door its mother came
to its relief. She was instructed to
throw water on it, and she accord
ingly seized bucket that was on
the water stand and threw its con-
tents on the child, which happened
to be whisky instead of water. The
reader can imagine the effect. Sew
eral gentlemen who happened to be
near came and finally succeeded in
quenching the flames. DR.. Il. was
called in, and he thinks the case is
a very doubtful one.
Mr.. JAS. Lakewood had a party
at his house few nights ago, and
the young men seemed pretty hard
up for q dance. There were not
enough young ladies to make out
set, and in order to carry their
point, Messrs. Baxter r. and Bud
A. slipped upstairs and rugged
themselves from the wardrobe of
Mrs. H., came down and swung
their No. 9's to the tune of "Molly
Hare" with as much gracefulness as
COWS in a barn.

A Gard to the Public.

For many years we have made two
medicines suited to the ailments of vast
class of sufferers. Thousands of cures
have been made by them, and, in fact,
the word failure could not be coupled
with them. But within the last two
years counterfeits Of our medicines have
sprung up, dangerous in their close i'm
itation of our Trade Mark. To secure
the people we have placed upon each
genuine box of Holloway's Ointment
the fac simile of the signature of our
agent, Mr.. Jos. Haydock. To counter
felt is felony. We shall relentlessly
pursue any one who initiates this with
the utmost vigor of the law. We most
earnestly beg that the great mass OF the
American people will aid us in our efforts
to protect their health, and help us In
our task of bringing these most unprin-
cipled men 10 the bar of justice. Uni
formly refuse to purchase Medicines
purporting to be ours unless Mr.. Jos.
Haydock's signature is attached to each
box of Pills or pot of Ointment, and the
end will soon be reached.

A clerical friend writes to renew
his subscription to the CITIZEN
and says: "In fact 1 don't see how

ties. She looks for it as regular as
she does for letter from Lynnville. F"
Then the good man owns up and
says for himself 81 consider it one
of the best and most readable week
lies 1 have ever SEEN"
Then a confrere from another
State, who was once connected with
the daily press of Nashville, writes
us: ave notice that your CITIZEN
is printed quite handsomely, and
we have taken fancy to the size
and general makeup. We would
like to know the character &C., of
your press" etc etc. All these in
a single mail.
Again the best editor of the best
paper in the State told us Sunday
that we printed the neatest and one
of the best papers in the State.
Now all of this is very consollng
and encouraging to us, and we shall
relax no effort to keep the CITIZEN
up to its present standard, and will
endeavor to make it better in the
future.
We do most heartily thank these
and many other friends who have
given similar expressions of their
appreciation for the CITIZEN. We
receive them almost daily some
from distant States and many from
our own dear Giles county home
folks. We would be perfectly hap
py to know that everybody thus ap-
preciated our ernest and honest eff
forts to make the CITIZEN a reads-
BILE, reliable and interesting visitor
to their families and firesides.

Peddlers are taking Pulaski. Our

Peddlers are taking Pulaski. Our
citizens are many of them biting at
the "scheap goots." Is it not right
that we should spend our money
with our home merchants, who
spend their money with us? Be
sides our duty to patronize home
folks, it seems to us 1t is also to our
own interest. If you buy piece of
goods from responsible Pulaski
merchant and it turns out to be
shoddy, you can take it back and
get your money. If you buy from
one of these peddlers, before you
have time to test his wares ne is
gone and so is your money. Buy
at homei How long, o, Lord, be
fore our people learn the lesson by
which the North has prospered at
our expense! How long, o, Lord,
before we learn to resist enticing
yankee humbugs!

We call the attention of the
County Court to the new pike on
the Fayetteville road. 1t is the
only work of much consequence that
the work house has accomplished
and it should not be suffered to
spoil for little more work. The
pike was made as good as any of
its kind, but the absence of gravel
has nearly proved its ruin. 1t is
nearly worn through already. Tray
ell has been in the same rut all the
time and the wagon wheels have
about cut through. If gravel had
been applied it would have been
smoothe all over and wagons would
not have been driven in the same
track. The rock on the edges
should be thrown up into the road
and coat of gravel applied. If
this is not done, the road will soon
be ruined and the work already
done will be lost. 1t will not last
through another winter if this is
not done. We hope the Magistrates
will inspect the road and see the
necessity of our suggestions.

Parker's Store.

A month of gloom seemed to have
o'erspread our village since some of
our citizens have left US and decreed
by that that we shall seldom see
their smiling faces. But the ap
proach of spring time revives our
dropping spirits and renders us
cheerful as in days of yore, when
the mocking bird lent his sweet
carol to animate fainting heart.
Your correspondent is in & gloomy
mood to night. Lonely in the world
with no one towel, | won't say
it, but methinks that if tender lit
tie hand rested on his shoulder, two
large blue eyes were lovingly peer
ing into his, two rosy lips were
parted giving shape to thoughts,
dictated by little throbbing heart,
that he could get up his articles for
the CITIZEN in better style. If
you know of nice old maid what's
going TO marry the first chance she
has, you may refer her to me. 1
am candidate for matrimony until
the end of next leap year, if not
sooner elected.
Business seems to be reviving
somewhat IN this vicinity just now.
Farmers are beginning to arrange
matters to prepare for their crops.
Wheat is slow in developing itself
in this neighborhood, but it is
hoped that it will do well yet.
The Rev. W. n. Moore, of North |
took in our village on a
business trip through this country |
some time ago. He is in bad health |
now, but we hope he will be able at
no distant day to take up his call
ing ''whereunto he was sent" Mr..
Alex Puryear, of Georgia, a brother
of Mr.. Henry Puryear deceased,
of this neighborhood, is visiting
relatives here. Misses Adnie and
Inez Alternately, of Pleasant Valley,
visited some of our neighbors last
week. The only regret is that they
did not stay longer. The presence
of young ladies terribly excites an
old bachelor. Messrs. j. E. Pur-
year and P. F. Woodland made a
trip to Columbia last week with a
drove of mules and horses. They
report the market dull, but succeed
ed in selling their stock. Such
master spirits will generally be sue
cessful.
The Rev. Mr.. W. Weakly was
able to fill his appointment at Salem
and Hebron on the third Sunday.
He has not wholly recovered from
MS attack of sickness at Franklin
yet but hope that he will be fully
restored to his usual health in a
short time.
Mr.. Bud Vaughan returned from
Alabama the other day, where he
had been with his wagon. Heavy
.oads and bad roads jaded his team.

from his wagon and very badly
bruised last Saturday. He is I'M
proving now.

Lynnville.

The few days of fine weather
seem to have enthused new life and
energy into all classes of people.
The ladies who have been so long
<isnow and mud bound" are busy
making their long promised visits.
Farmers are busy arranging for the
oming crops. If we can have a
few more days Of pretty, open
weather many of them will begin
blowing and preparing their lands.
Several more car loads of hogs
and mules have been shipped since
our last writing. Col. McClelland
and Maj. Altman shipped tyso car
loads of young cattle to Texas last
week with a view to starting herd
of blooded stock in that great cattle
country. Mr.. Henry Fry and Mr..
Graves, the latter from the Corners
vile neighborhood, left here for
Texas last week. We are glad to
say that Mr. Tom Fry, our excel
lent blacksmith, declined going and
will remain at his post here. We
could not get along well without
Tom.
Rev. Mr.. Weakly, we are gratified
to state, has recovered his health
and returned TO his several charges
on this circuit. He preached last |
night at this place and yesterday
at Old Lynnville. His audiences
were unusually large and his ser
mons full of interest. He will have
a quarterly meeting at this place
beginning on Friday before the Sec
ond Sunday in February. Wehave
had no preaching in the Presbyte-
rian church since Mr.. Stoddert left
us. The elders of that Church are
in communication with several min
listers, and it is to be hoped they
will soon secure the services of
some one. If DR.. DuBose could get
off from Pulaski and give US a SER
mon once in while it would be
highly gratifying to all our people.
The Doctor has many warm and
friends here, and we
think could depend on a fine con-
any time he would come,
whether on Sunday or during the
week.
We were a little behind with the
news when we mentioned Mr.. Black :
