39 psl. - Destroyed. When we speak of capital as permanent, we mean that using does not destroy it as it destroys the tissues of which it is composed.

It can do one minute thing and that only, and when a new and better device appears for doing that one thing, the machine has to go, and not to some new employment, but to the junk heap. There is thus taking place a considerable waste of capital in consequence of mechanical and other progress.
