for the benefit of the insurance companies. and

EDUCATION THAT DOES NOT EDUcAIE.-Tbe
whole tendency of modern education is to lift
boys and girls to places they are no: fitted to
fill, to disgust them with work which they are
fitted to do, which must be done, and which
can be esslly obtained. Our theory Of education
is continually losing sight of a fact hich never
permits itself to be ignored, and teaching the
young to lose sight Of it,-that the mass OF
the people in every generation. and under
whatever form of government, must be labor
ers. The old heresy that every boy has
chance to be president OF the United States,
has done more more mischief in the small
brains Of boys who, when they attain man
hoods strength, are fitted to dig trenches and
do nothing else, than 1t has even in larger
brains Of public men who, once bitten with the
personal application OF the idea, are good for
nothing afterwards. The boy should have an
education which, when completed, will mako
the subject better fitted to pursue well the
work for which he is adapted; which makes
him not ashamed TO do it, and which thus Dig
nlfies labor. Indianapolis News.
