Power of Poise.
Poise is power. The man who is
not master of himself under all condi-
nous cannot feel the assurance, the
fiver, which is .the right of every hr
11 being to experience. He is never
sure of himself. and the man who is
never sure of himself is never wholly
at ease. He is not even , l~bred. for
mood breeding implies self-control un-
:sier all circumstances.
There is. perhaps no other thing
which is so conducive to one' 5 physical
{and mental comfort, efficiency, happi-
ness and success as a calm mind. When
the mind is unbalanced, by finger, ex-

Elevator Rope In Coal Mines.
One of the most impressive things
about a colilery. to an out‘sider, is the
mammoth drfim which winds the rope
which brings coal up from the pit. This
monster drum may measure 150 feet
in circumference. and weigh about 200
tons, and it will wind in the rope with
its load at a speed of nearly 60 miles
"an hour. There are miles of the rope.
when the pit is a deep one. like the
’.'orksl1ire Main colliery's, whose ver-
'v:11 shaft holds the record for depth
suing down nearly 1,000 yards, and
Mr long distances horizontally. The
hope Costs $10 a yard and its maximum
