Labor is a commodity to be bought
ard sold Notwithstanding the maudlin
criticism of some theorists, writes C.
w. Post in Leslie's. Labor is not the
man himself. whom l consider a part
of the divine. but labor is his output
just the same as wheat is the output
of the farmer. and 1t Is a subject for
purchase and sale. and upon its quail
!ty depends its demand and It's value.
There are two kinds of labor. the one
manual and the other mental. When
the skilled workman possesses a train
ed mind which directs his hands. he
rises in value. and when he reaches a
plane where his mind is 30 well train
ed that he in turn becomes a creator
and must needs devise and direct. he
then requires other hands to carry
cut his ideas. Then he again rises In
the plane of value to humanity. and
his compensation must keep pace.

CHAPTER VII.
A World of Ghosts.

A deathly stiffness had all at once
fallen like a blanket, plotting out Nc
Carthy's violent speech. The rafting
typewriter in the next room was
abruptly stilled. The roar of the city
died as a living creature is cut by the
sword-all at once, without the transit
tionary running down of most silences.
Absolute dense stiffness. like that of a
sea calm at night, took the place Of
the customary city noises. In his as
constituent Mccarthy thrust a heavy
inkstand off the edge OF his desk. 1t
hit the floor, spilled, rolled away; but
noiselessly. as would the inkstand in
a moving picture.
To have ones world thus suddenly
stricken dumb, to be transported oral
ly from the roar of city to the peace
of woodland or a becalmed sea is
certainly astonishing enough.
But this silence was particularly ter
rifying to both Mccarthy and Jack
Warford, though neither would have
been able to analyze the reason for its
