MT Carnegie has some ideas about the diffusion of knowledge that are not beyond dispute. but he is quite right in assuming that the investment of money for technical education needs no defense The wonder is that even a Pittsburg manufa cturer should main- tain it's uselessness Even supposing it to he true, as this manufacturer says, that technically trained young men are outstripped hy young men who learn the manufacturing business in the office or the shop" what oppor- tunities for so learning the business are at present available?
 The enormous complexity of modern manufacturing, with the necessary spe- cialization of the individual parts, would make it practically impossible, in most instances. to learn the busi- ness in the shop. even were there no artificial conditions to interfere. The old premiership system is, as T mat ter fact, extinct The man who learns to do one thing in factory us- ually keeps on doing that one thing, NANli littlt DpIlbt ttiiltA VII NN0AiN t' learn to do much else. The spinner, the weaver, the dyer, each does his own work and will not let the other interfere with him; but whence is to come the guiding hand and mind to make the work of each economically effective?
 More and more success in manufac- turing has come to depend on organ izaticn and direction, upon the train ed and scientific knowledge of all the processes involved. whether they he mechanical, chemical or commercial.

getting catarrh again, and started
using it again, and | keep it in the
house and use it every morning once
day, and Keep myself clear of ca
tarrh. l consider it the best catarrh
medicine that is used. l have often
