THE DIVORCE PROBLEM.

A clergyman college professor siren
nously protests against divorce and
urges the necessity of marriage tie
that can be broken only by death. No
sane person who honestly has at heart
the best interests of society in gen.
eral will differ from the professor but
the difficulty with his proposition is
that 1t begins in the wrong place. If
the church and the law paid half the
attention to marriage that they do to
divorce the divorce problem would be
reduced to a mighty small minimum
The blind, halt and foolish are permit
ted to wed without let or hindrance.
The state and the church make no in
quiry whatever, says the Chicago Eve
ming journal. Anyone-even those
manifestly unfit to marry-can be
welded on request, condition which
manifestly makes for marital unrest
and dissatisfaction. and is largely pro-
ductive of divorce. Give marriage
more safeguards, and the courts will
find much less necessity to interfere
with family relations. But those who
expect to remove the effect without
eliminating the cause are attempting
task very near the impossible.

SURPRISED HIM
Doctors Test Of Food,

Il naturally watch the effect of diff

tie son, lad of four. had been i'll
with pneumonia and during his conva-
lescence did not seem to care for any
kind of food.
Il knew something of Grape-Nuts
and its rather fascinating flavor, and
particularly of its nourishing and
nerve-building powers. so 1 started the
boy on Grape-Nuts and found from
the first dish that he liked it.
His mother gave it to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
less than a month he had gained
about eight pounds and soon became
SO well and strong we had no further
anxiety about him.
An old patient of mine, 10 years
old, came down with serious stomach
trouble and before l was called had
got so weak he could eat almost moth
ing, and was in serious condition.
He had tried almost every kind of
food for the sick without avail.
Il Immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good. rich milk and just a
little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed
when l came next day Why doctor 1
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel so much stronger
Il am pleased to say that he got
well on Grape-Nuts. but he had to
stick to it for two or three weeks.
then he began to branch out a little
with rice or an egg or two. He got
entirely well in spite of his almost
hopeless condition. He gained %
pounds in two months which at his
age is remarkable.
