Time flies and dims our eyes
And with old Time we all grow wise;
Then how very wise are you to-day
For another year has flown away
And you are seventy seven.
Smiles bring cheer, and you bring
smiles,
And greet each friend with beaming
eyes;
Though many the troubles that fall
on you
That hopeful mind and heart so true
Will smile you up to Heaven.
So here's to you and another year,
DAnd here's to you and your smile,
And here's to you and your CHEEKY
way
That bless us all the while

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

Owing to the stress of the times
and the consequent falling off In the
volume of business that must follow,
we feel it is necessary to reduce
VERY MATERIALLY our expenses
for next year or otherwise advance
the prices of lumber.
In the face of present conditions we
are not disposed to advance but to
reduce prices and henceforth we have
decided, in order to reduce expenses
to a minimum, to consolidate THE
CITIZENS LUMBER COMPANY and
THE lMAYES LUMBER COMPANY
and to operate in the future only one
shed.
The new institution will be called
the MAYES-HOWARD LUMBER
COMPANY and will be located at
the present stand of the Mayes Lum-
Der Company where Mr.. T. C. How
ard will be in charge of the business
extending a cordial welcome to the
customers of both institutions.
This consolidation will enable us to
make even lower prices in many in
stances than heretofore and you are
assured of the same courteous treat
ment and satisfactory service that
was extended to the patrons of both
of the old firms.
We are deeply grateful for the lib
eral patronage which we have re-
ceived in the past and respectfully
solicit the opportunity of quoting
prices on anything in our line.
Very Sincerely,
CITIZENS LUMBER CO.

A GENTLE HINT. :

A subscriber once received dun
through the postofice, and it made
him mad. He went to see the edi-
tor about it, and the editor showed
him a few duns of his own-one for
paper, one for type, one for fuel, and
several others. Now, said the edi-
tor, ST didn't get mad when those
came. because / knew that all / had
to do was to ask several reliable gen
tlemen like you to come and help me
out, and then I could settle all of
them" When the subscriber saw how
it was he relented, paid up, and re-
newed for another year.-Tallahasse

The Mason correspondent OF the
Memphis Scimitar says:
at r. Karney. a prosperous bust
ness man of this town, by much ma
neuvering has managed to keep many
needy farmers and jobless men at
work. He has been saving logs, clear
ing land, building houses and making
crossties-just anything that will
compensate him for. hiring the men.
His efforts have kept many working
men in food and clothing. Mr.. Kar-
ney recently shipped 10000 hardwood

THE NIGHT BEFORE WATERLOO

There was sound of revelry by
night,
And Belgium's capital had gather
then,
Her Beauty and her Chivalry, and
bright
The lights shown over fair women and
brave men;
A thousand hearts beat happily; and
when
Music arose with it's voluptuous
swell,
Soft eyes look'd love to eyes which
spake again,
And all went merry as a marriage
bell
But hush! bark! deep sound strikes
like a rising knell!
Did We not hear it? No; twas but the
Or the car rafting over the stony
street;
On with the dance! let joy be uncon-
fined;
No sleep till morn when Youth and
Pleasure meet
To chase the glowing hours with fly
ing feet
But bark! that heavy sound breaks
in once more
AS if the clouds its echo would re-
peat,
And nearer, clearer, deadlier than be-
fore!
Arm! Arm! it is-it is-the lannon's
opening roar!
Within a windows niche of that high
hall
Sat Brunswick's fated chieftain; he
did hear
That sound the first amidst the fes-
tival,
And caught it's tone with deaths pro-
phetic ear;
And when they smiled because he
deem'd it near,
His heart more truly knew that peal
too well
Which stretched his father on a bloody
bier.
And aroused the vengeance blood
alone could quell;
He rushed into the field, and, fore
most fighting fell.
All, then and there was hurrying to
and fro,
And gathering tears and tremblings
of distress,
And cheeks all pale, which but an
hour ago
Blushed at the praise of their own
lOvlinesS;
And there were sudden partings such
as press
The life from out the young hearts,
and choking signs
Which ne'er might be repeated; who
could guess
If ever more should meet those mu-
tual eyes,
Since upon night so sweet such awful
morn should rise!
And there was mounted in not haste;
the steed,
The mastering squadron, and the clat-
tering car
Went pouring forward with impetuous
speed,
And swiftly forming in the ranks of
war;
And the deep thunder peel on peel
And near, the beat of the alarming
Reused up the soldiers ere thGsmorn-
ing star; R~
While thronged the citizens with ter
ror dumb
Or whispering with white lips-''The
foe!
They come, they come"
Last noon beheld them full of lusty
life,
Last eve in Beauty's circle proudly
gay,
The midnight brought the signal
sound of strife.
The morn the marshalling in arms
the day
Battles magnifcently stern array!
The thunder clouds close DER it, which
when rent
The earth is cover'd thick with other
clay,
Which her own clay shall cover,
heap'd and pent.
Rider and horse-friend, foe-in one
red burial blent.
