Little, well-known merchant and cotton buyer of this city, for he is smoking again. When the gloom of depression was at its darkest, Mr. Little gave up the pleasant weed,declaring that he could rib longer afford such luxury when “times were so hard.” To the enquiry of friends, he replied that he would abstain from smoking until the Octo ber cotton market reached eight cents, and for 11 weeks he carried a cigar and two matches in his pocket in readiness for the longed-for rise. Thus the occasion was duly cele brated this week when cotton was quoted at eight-fourteen, and the cigar was jubilantly lighted.. His friends wish for Mr. Little the enjoy ment of many more pleasant smokes. _ NOTICE TO CREDITORS Having qualified as administratrix of the estate of D. S.
