THE QUEENS MENTAL BALANCE.
Always "keeps Her Head" and Never
Displays Irritability.
From the Spectator.


Throughout her long and arduous life
see things in their true proportions, and
to maintain a wise, sane and equable
outlook on public affairs. The Queen, that
is, in spite of the thousand temptations
which must have arisen during sixty-two
years of sovereignty. has never. shown fus-
sness, irritability, over-anxiety or any
other form of distraction and want of men,
tai balance. There must have been plenty
of steps taken in home and foreign at
fairs. plenty of bills passed and policies
adopted, of which the Queen has most
heartily and strongly disapproved. Again,
there must have been plenty of cases in
which statesmen have been raised to pow
or by popular favor, or dismissed from
power by the fclIleness of public opinion
in which the Queen has entirely differed
with the majority of her people. Whether
the Queen or her people have been in the
right does not matter. No doubt there
have been some INSTANCES in which she
has been wrong and the public right, and
others in which her personal view has
proved the true one.
The important. the essential, thing is
that she has always kept her head in pub
lie affairs, and that in regard to the con-
troverses of the hour she has been able
to show the well-balanced mind When
she sincerely and conscientously disap-
proved of a measure or a policy that was
triumphant for the moment she never
showed fussy anxiety or irritability, never
let ii be seen or known that she thought
the country was being injured by this or
that fundamental change. Again, at times
when policy has been popular with which
size has been in special and personal SYM
pathy, she has never yielded to the temp
taJion to let her name be connected with
Il, or TO assume any credit for its iuitia-
ton Yet again and again 1t has happened
that happy suggestions from the Queens
nave had extremely important results III
policy and legislation. In theory her min
listers advise the Queen but in practice
she often advises them
In a word, the Queen has been able,
thanks to the inestimable gift of equanim-
lily, to show neither irritability nor anx,
iety when things have not gone the way
she would have liked them to go, nor the
slightest touch of triumph or self-compla>
cency when her personal view has been
IN the ascendant. She has been perturbed
neither by regret nor by pride, but has
kept her mental balance absolutely alike
in storm or calm.

HOW MONEY Is WASHED.
A Process Employed by Banks
Not Generally Known.

1t is not generally known that u
great deal of paper money that is
constantly circulating about gets
frequent washings in the same way
as the housewife or maid does on a
Monday morning. In some banks
there is a regular wash day every
month, usually at the beginning,
when a clerk may be seen bent over
tub and washing real money up a
washboard.
The dirty greenbacks that have
been saved up for month are soaped
and rubbed just like handkerchiefs
and socks, and are run through a
wringer before putting out to dry.
The paper currency may be handled
somewhat roughly as it does not
tear, because there is in it great
deal of silk and linen.

Shore Train Last Friday.

The inquest over the remains OF
the man who was killed on the
South Shore railroad track near
Nestora last Friday, was held
Monday afternoon in the Town
Hall in this village. The man S
name was Matt Saxman,a "a Finlander
and had been working at Read S
camp near Nestoria. The jury
rendered verdict that the man
came to his death "from unknown
causes.
From the evidence submitted at
the inquest it could not be deter
mined whether or not he was dead
before the train struck him, as he
was motionless and lying length
wise parallel with the rails, and
was not noticed by the engineer in
time to stop the trains before pass
ing over him.
Deceased was an unmarried man
and came from Michigamme to
Nestoria.
