L is Wise to be Daring.

1t requires mammoth pluck to
successfully manage some OF the
business ventures that characterize
this age of the world as the most
startling of all periods. Fortunes
are now made in a day and some
times lost in a minute and he who
dares to measure lances with the
tickle goddess that is so lavish with
some and stingy with others is a
hero. Pulaski never had q safer
and more daring young business
man than Mr.. Wyatt I. Alternately,
who manages the business OF the
Mammoth Clothing Store. He has
caught the tue secret Of business
success--large saIes and small
profits-and thus his customers get
the advantage OF low prices while
his large sales make the profits re-
muaerative. There is no safer man
in the country than Esq. w. H. A Der
nathy, the senior of the firm, and
Pulaski never produced young
mar OF superior business training
and habits to the younger mem Der,
Mr.. Will L. Alternately. Their nam
moth advertisement to-day tells the
whole of it. A perfect fit, the best
material, and a low prIce-sll
guaranteed. Their goods are fast
arriving and they invite an inspec-
ton,

TO Postmasters.

We call attention OF postmaster-
to the habit of some people OF TAX
ing OuI SUBSCRIBERS papers out OF
the offices. Men complain to us
continually that their paper
comes up missing. We send it.
Some one borrows it. 1t is dam
aging US. Surely person who does
not subscribe for a paper ought
not to take some other mans copy
and thus aggravate him so that he
stops his paper. 1t is done IN,
thoughtedly. and we hope that this
reminder, written without malice,
may not on y stop it, but induce
the borrowers to subscribe for
themselves So they may not again
be subjected to reprOof.

Messrs. Smith Bros, formerly OF
Town Creek, Ala, have located in
the mercantile business at Lynnville.
The writer was acquainted with the
firm in Alabama and can conscien-
tiously commend them to the con-
fdence of the citizens of Giles, who
are to be congratulated upon receiv-
ing so valuable an accession to the
community. They are live bust
ness men, and therefore have been
good patrons of the printers, and
will doubtless avail themselves of
the very large circulation of the
CITIZEN in the Lynnville country.
We have thought that Lynnville's
business interests might be materi
ally advanced by the use of these
columns by her business men, and
we expect that these progressive
men will set them an example that
will be profitable to all of them.

Prof. W. C. Guthrie, president
and other members of the Y. M. G.

appeal for aid to enable them to
preserve the organization and to
carry on the work in our midst
They only ask the people of Pulas
XII to contribute one hundred dol
lars to pay room rent and inciden
tai expenses. Certainly if the as
sociation is worth anything it is
worth this much to the town. II
is left with the citizens to decide
whether the organization is worth
less or beneficial to society. If il
does no good, then it is unworthy
their support but if it has in any
degree accomplished its grand OBJ
iect, or if there is any hope of its
doing so, no one will deny that il
deserve the aid that is asked. We
believe it has done good, that it is
doing good, that it will continue tc
do good, if kept in existence and
that it is the duty of all Pulaskians
and Of christians especially, to re-
spond to the appeal

it in turn would unwind itself just
