The Visitors Chair.

No editor likes to have his time
taken up with visitors, exchange
fiends, or men who come up to
talk politics. Nor does he like to
be discourteous to these guests.
The most simple and expeditions
way to dispose of these callers is to
take the back off the arm chair that
they sit in. Most arm chairs have
false back which sustains the
shoulders of the sitter. Remove
this back and the edge Of the chair
saws the mans spine who sits in il.
Very few men will stay in such
chair over FIVE minutes even when
urged. The APPEAL Office has OF e

the past year. We would not take

Increased Demand for American
Cotton Goods.

New YORK, Jan. 29.-The Com
mercial Bulletin in an editorial on
our cotton manufactures says:
China is our principal customer for
cotton goods, but the shipment to
that country in the past year was
very much less than in 1882, the
difference amounting to Is, Asa, 032
yards, or nearly 50 per cent. Per
haps this may be one of of conse
quences of our unfriendly legisla-
ton in regard to Chinese immigra-
ton: Nevertheless. as the total de-
crease from the previous year was
only 6S19,923, there Was an in
crease of nearly 100000 yards to
other countries. Next to China,
England appears to be the largest
buyer of our cottons.

Beef has advanced in San Fran

Miller and Lux are reported as
having occasioned the corner in
beef by buying up all the available

This makes a difference of from
