BEGIN HERE TODAY Clare Jewett, in love with the Rev. Daniel Gilchrist, marries Jerry Goodkind for his money. Daniel is dismissed from the fashionable Church of the Nativity in New York because of Ms radical sermons. Gilchrist is sent to the coal mines by Goodkind saiior and wires that a big: strike is settled. A delegation of strikers comes north to interview the president nad directors. They are received in Jerry’s home, first Stedtman. then Hennig and Umanswi. They do not meet with success. Daniel calls at Jerry's home to see Jerry s father. Jerry meets Daniel and forbids him to speak to Clare. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CDDEXLY Jerry lifted a hand C that trembled with anger. With a swift motion he brought it up and with its back slashed Gilchrist across the mouth, a stinging blow. Gilchrist's hands clinched tightly, his face colored so that the red mark of the blow was lost, he drew himself up as If to launch his whole force at this snarling thing before him. Then, as suddenly as his muscular frame had stiffened, it relaxed. He bowed his head, as one humbled. In his mind he had seen a figure and beard a voice. Clare started with the blow, but caught herself up quickly when she

saw Gilchrist open his clenched hands and lower his head. “Danr’ she said in amazement, "you're not to take that?” Gilchrist looked up unashamed. “I have nothing to say,” he answered simply, calmly. It was Clare who turned to scorn now. ”1 didn't think you were a coward," she mocked. Then helplessly and pathetically: “You see—l was wrong ibout everything.” And she was gone.
CHAPTER XIII Jerry’s Ultimatum Gilchrist stood there helpless, but with his head still high and his eyes clear. Clare's refutation had left him mute and he seemed like a lifeless and hollow thing. Its effect on Hennlg. however, had been the opposite. Fired jy the brazenness of others, he, too, IF CONSTIPATE!) SICKJLIOOS Harmless Laxative for the Liver and Bowels WmLEV^SLEI^J Feed fine!

doubled his fists, and advanced upon this naan he believed to be immobile with cowardice. "You'll play around with my wife, will you?” he blustered. His fist shot out. Daniel had wheeled suddenly with the alertness of a cunning animal. With a swift move he caught Hennlg’s wrist with both hands. A quick twist, and Joe sprawled on the floor. Daniel looked at his cowed adversary solicitously. "I hope I didn’t hurt you, Joe,” he said. “My* God!” It was Stedtmann’s expression of amazement as he looked from Gilchrist to Jerry, bewildered. Hennig had scrambled to his feet, but not eager for another encounter. He made for the door. ‘‘Don’t worry,” he muttered. “I’ll get you. It may be a long time but I’ll get you.” And he hurried out. “Take him home, Stedtman.” said Gilchrist with a trace of tender solicitude. “Tell your father we'll be around in the morning, Mr. Jerry.” said Stedtman as he left. Gilchrist and Jerry eyed each other for a moment. Then Jerry sauntered to the table, poured himself a drink and downed it with a grimace. “Well,” he aid at last, “you’ve trade a nice mess of it. Why can't you keep your nose out of other people’s tusiness. Why did you have to date my leaving Black River?” Gilchrist could talk freely now. Clare was gone. “Why in the name of heaven did you have to get mixed up with Pearl Hennig?” he queried earnestly. “I can take what I want out of life.” Jerry answered with a smirk. nodded. “God says. ‘There Is the world. Take what you want,” he said, and then with emphasis, “and pay for it.’ ” “Rubbish:” mocked Jerry. “Save your preaching for those who like it. And keep away from my wife.” “Why?” "Because you're in love with her. •Vren’t you?" "Yes.” The answer was bland “Well, you’re a hell of a nerve to preach to me about Hennig's wife while making a play for mine.” “I’m not making a play for yours.” “No?" Jerry’s tone was sarcastic. “You expect mo to believe that when you admit—Why did you puli that hero stuff? Why dM you keep your mouth shut when I lost my temper? Why did you turn the other cheek?” "You wouldn’t understand, Jerry." j Gilchrist was looking off In the distance. "Wouldn’t I? Well, you understand j that I’ve forbidden you to speak to her and that goes. If you come here again I'll have the servants throw you out, and I'll tell my father why.” The senior Goodkind came from the music room as though summoned by the mention of his name. “Here’s your father now,” dared Gilchrist. ' Jerry drew nearer and low-ered his* voice.
"And that's not all I’ll do. Not by a damned sight.” he muttered. And !h? brushed past his father as he | stacked out. Goodkind looked after him quizzically. ‘‘Jerry’ doesn’t like you much, does he?” he declared, as he reached for the humidor and passed the cigars to Gilchrist. * “Not much.” smiled Gilchrist. The two men shared a match and puffed vigorously. “Well,” said Goodkind, when the smoke began to come generously, "how are things in Black River?” “I think we’ve got everything settled." said Daniel. "Fine. Benfleld'll be up in a minute and we’ll hear the conditions.” He sat down contentedly. “Somehow. I knew you’d do ft. Jerry says you’re a philanthropist, but I knew’ he was wrong.” “Thanks.” said Gilchrist, smiling. “If you've really settled this strike." said Goodkind seriously, “our way—your salary from today is $30,000 a year.” “Thanks—again.” “I’m dog-tired of rowing with labor. It's such utter damned waste! Excuse me." “I agree with you,” said Daniel, ignoring the apology. “I’d hate to figure out what walkouts have cost this country.” “Tes. I often wonder why it wouldn't be cheaper to keep the men contented.” “How’re you going to do it?” queried Goodkind, doubtfully. “Don’t j forget there are as many people paid for stirring up strikes as for crushing ’em. Paid welj, too. What the laboring man needs is a real Interest in his job.” “Why don’t you give it to him?” "How? By doubling his wages? The more most of ’em get the less I tney want to do for it. You know that.” “Yes.” “They’ve got a notion that you get rich by riding around In a limousine." “Don’t you?” Daniel asked, quietly. “Not often. Not unless you think while you ride, or your father thought | fr.r you. Even thbn. money doesn't stay long In bad company. To hear j those fellows you'd think there wasn’t I any work except what's done with a pick. The man who really produces : is the man with the idea.” “The man who produces most,’’ corrected Daniel. “Yes, and he ought to get most,” said Goodkind. firmly.' “He does,” came back Gilchrist. “He always will," assented Goodkind. “Show me a big man and I’ll show yon somebody who’s done a big job. It's the little man with no ca- | parity and no chin who cries about a conspiracy to keep him from being president.” "They’ve got to be little men, too. I Mr. Goodkind.” “And they've got to be satisfied with I little rewards. We can’t all have the same bank roll any more than we can all have the same health. That’s where unions go wrong. When you 1 ieH a man he’s going td Have the same reward whatever he does—not be I cause he's got ability, but because he’s got a union card—down goes the standard, out goes Incentive, and to hell goes the whole social structure.” I “Right!" said Gilchrist, approvingly..

“That’s why I’m fighting the unions,” continued Goodkind, well warmed to his subject. “Not because I want to starve the man who works, but because I want to fire the man who doesn't—and reward the man who does. I want to give every rnan a good reason for doing his best. You can talk equality and democracy all you like, Dan, but the minute the average man isn’t afraid of being fired he isn’t afraid of being worthless. The minute you take away the incentive —the chance to get this”—and he waved t hand at the signs of wealth that surrounded him —“that minute you reduce the world to a common level of common indifference and common futility.” “Right!” agreed Daniel again. “Have another cigar!” chortled Goodkind, well pleased. Gilchrist waved the one he was smoking just a-.; Benfield appeared at the door. “Come in, Charlie,” said Goodkind. “Gilchrist's settled the strike” “Good,” said Benfield. but with a skeptical reserve. Daniel drew a folded paper from his pocket and handed it to Goodkind. “They may seem a little radical,’’ he said, “but I think I can show you they’ll save money in the end.” “That’s the idea,” beamed Goodkind as he picked up the sheets. He flung a cocky look at Benfield. “1 told you I knew my man. The Lord knows he’s full of theories but sometimes they—” His eyes fell upon the typewritten sheet before him and he stopped short. "Wait a minute! What’s this?” Goodkind jumped to his feet and
