As Indian Territory, with Us abund ances of bituminous coal, has a grow ing futuro in the coUc-prodticIng In dustry, it will very likely largely ftp ply the demand of tho Iron worlthiK foundries and machine hhops of Tex as for this essential fuel for tho me tallic Industries. Edward V.

One establishment and fifty ovens were added to the coke-making equip ment of the Territory during the year, and the product Increased from 07,374 short tons to 4'J,41 tons, the Increase in value being from $154,834 to $202,' 021. Indian Terltory Btarted In 1880 with one establishment and twenty ovens which used 110.034 tons of coal and produced 49,411 tons of coke. The opening up of now milieu of coal Jim to follow tho sale of coal' lands pro vlded for by act of congress wlili belones to the five civilized tribes. will more than likely give consldern ble Impetus to the coke-making in dubtry of the Territory. The valuo of Indian Territory coko at the ovens last year was an average of ?4.10 ton. Noble Won His Point.

W have got away out of the claws of the usual nnd lie blissfully waiting for a knock at the door which shall have an unfamiliar sound. Downstair we find new faces, new pictures, strange books, a fresh stand point. Life Inn a now savor. Wo taste It every where -In the ntinoaphere nnd In the conversation, even in the bread nnd the salt. Our (lrt sensation Is that everything depends upon somebody else. It is nothing to do with us what ever happens. Hut presently the old truism of our childhood, thnt every sit uation in life has It duties, conies back to our mind, and though with our wak ing thought we east off those of the home dweller we must lniuiPdliitt'ly prepare to take on those of a guest, at least If wo are constitutionally con scientious, which, nla. all guests are not. They may Indeed be divided by this conscience test Into visiting hheep and visiting goats. Tho motto of the conselentlou guest Is Mine. Mold's well known saying, "It Is a slinme to oat another man s bread and give him nothing In return!" Snob n one should be a Joy to his hostess, but in the holiday world of hosts nnd guests, ns In workaday life, good Inten tions do not alwnys Insure success. Hie conscientious sometimes fall where the unconscientious succeed. London Spec tator. THE SENSE OF SMELL. The ,lorlKlni- ( l'cru Have Dcvel njicil It AVoinlt-rf ully. How Infinitely minute must bo the particles that cmnuate from the object which tho dog Is tracking, says the London Mall. Yet tho matter Is ex tremely divisible. The tenth part of a grain of musk will continue for years to till a room with Its odoriferous par tides and tit tho end or that time will not be npprcclably diminished In weight by the llncst balance. A cubic inch of nlr rising from the name of n Huuscii burner has been found to con tain no fewer than IS9.000.000 dust par tides. A drop of blood which might bo suspended from thu point of n necdlo contains about a million of red lint tened corpuscles. Still, though matter Is so inarvelously divisible, tho olfac tory nerves aro Infinitely moro sens! tlvc. Much has yet to bo Investigated with regnrd to the differentiation of the points In these nerves so that they may discriminate with such nppaient- ly miraculous accuracy. Yet even the n-sults lu tho scent of (logs show how inarvelously line Is their discriminating power. Our sense of smell, unless l:i the trained chemist. I not even so acute as that of the somlsavage. Tin aborigines of Peru can In the darUis night and In the thickest woods distin guish respectively a white mail, a in1 gro and one of their own race by th' smell. Much we have gained by clvlli nation, but not without some loss to our bodily energies and senses. Mans re euperallve power after nil Injury Is In tho Inverse ratio to his social advance ment. Similarly he 'seems to become less acute nnd dellciite in tho sense of smell ns he fares better nnd lives mor" comfortably. The faithful dog putn him to shame.

We learn that the nose of Socrates was not Greek, but such ns Greek art Ists usually assigned to satyrs. Occn slounlly, as In a beautiful group of n satyr playing dire with a nymph on n bronze mirror, they gave satyrs anoth er hum or nose. 1 lie noses or trie in dies In the Tanagra terra cotta are of all agreenble orders of tioe, not news snrlly Greek. The chances nre that tin1 Greeks varlfd as much as we do In their noses, while the tradition of their art preferred the conventional straight nose.
