up while you were shut in your sick
room that sort of intimacy and de-
pendence that girl your age might
quite naturally take for love. He
sounds a weak and contemplate
character, but your mother doesn't
sound weak and contemplate, and
her compliance with your wishes is
the one thing in this muddle that
amazes me. Can she possibly antici-
pate any dignity or happiness in
such future for you?
John Would Have Two Wives
Since the whole thing is unthink-
able l am almost ready to believe
that your idea would be to go on
living, as Johns wife, under your
mothers roof. Otherwise, robbed of
his job and his mothers monthly
check, you would have no means of
any kind. Your mother would still
be struggling to pay off the expenses
of your illness, you acting as house
keeper and cook for the three of
you, and John complacently accept
ing the support and kindly admins
trations of both his wives.
We had a case here in California
some years ago of woman who
married a man named Smith, di-
vorced him for man named
Brown, divorced Brown to remarry
Smith, and when last heard from
was divorcing Smith - whether or
not with plans for Brown l don't
know. But this tangle of yours is
even less natural and more SIMS
ter.
If l gave advice at all, it would
be that you leave home at once.
Let John and your mother be rec
onciled or divorced, but have no
part in it. Go somewhere far away,
to college, or to your own father
in johannesburg. His farm sounds
interesting enough for a long visit.
Try to meet a real man, all your
own, and forget this sickroom fancy
that no more resembles real love
than livid yellow orchid hanging
in a dollhouse resembles apple-blos-

Animals Without Grain

Fifty per cent of all meat of all
kinds produced in the United
States is grown without the feed
ing of any grain at all. In the case
of cattle, more than 80 per cent of
all beef produced was grown with
out the feeding of grain of any
kind-the animals being raised on
roughage, grass, beet pulp and a
large number of other foods I'M
suitable for human consumption.
Two-thirds of the area of the
United States is in grass which
would be wasted if there were no
animals to consume it and convert
it into meat.

marry my stepfather. My
i mother is entirely willing.
Do you think this could be sue
cessful marriage?"
This is the question in let
ter from a St. Louis girl. She
goes on to describe this strange
and unnatural situation.
my mother divorced my father
when I was IL and she a." says
her letter. my stepfather was then
81. For time I disliked him heart
lily, and it was only during long
illness that I came to know him as
he really is. My trouble was form
of arthritis with heart complica-
tons, 1 had to be very quiet for
months of convalescence. John
naturally was with me much of the
time. He read to me, we worked
out puzzles, listened to music, dis
cussed the days news. Mother was,
and is, night superintendent in
large hospital, which meant that my
evenings would have been solitary
indeed except for John. His work,
a jewelry salesman in his fathers
employ, permitted him to be free
in morning hours, when mother was
asleep, and he, and the nurse who
came in daily, managed the house
between them.
Some weeks ago, my mother con-
fided to me that she felt her mar
riage not success, that John was
not only too young in years, but
was mentally immature. This is not
true, but he has boyish, irrespon-
sible way of taking life, infinitely de-
Ightful to me, but much too youth
full for mother.
Mother Would Divorce Him.
Nov we three have talked the
situation over, and we agree that
everyone would be happier if moth
er and John were quietly divorced,
and he and happily married. But
there are elements that make it
hard. Johns earnings are very
small, but as mother owns this
house, makes fair income, and as
Johns mother contributes some
thing every month, we have been
very comfortable.
but now she is burdened with
all my nurse and doctor bills, which
will take long time to clear. And
John S father and mother, to whom
we suggested this arrangement, are
Mortified and tell him that they will
never have anything to do with him
again if he marries me. 1t seems
they have very strong religious
prejudices, but it does seem hard
to aff1ict us with them. l am anxious
ly awaiting your opinion of all this,
for your approval will help US ALL"
My dear Elinor, l say in answer,
my approval or disapproval of this
state of affairs cannot possibly have
much effect on them. You and your
mother and stepfather have already
moved so far out of any course that
is even imaginable to me that what
l might have to say would be apple
