Supplies Gently Acting “Bulk”
to Aid Regular Habits
Now and then, in talking with
your friends, the subject of bran has’
come up. So that real facts might
replace unsupported opinions, the
Kellogg Company has aided for
some years research in leading
nutrition laboratories,
Studies made on a group of
healthy women showed that two
tablespoonfuls of bran daily con
tinued to relieve constipation* over
a period of months. How different
from cathartics—where dosage
often must be increased.
Another series of tests on men in
dicated that, with some people, the
“bulk” in bran was much more
effective than that found in fruits
and vegetables.
Further tests showed that Kel
logg’s All-Bran provided vitamin
B and iron as well as “bujk.”
This “bulk” absorbs moisture, and
gently exercises and cleanses the
system — the right way to correct
constipation.
Serve All-Bran regularly for
regularity. Either as a cereal, with
milk or cream, or in cooked dishes.
It is a natural laxative food. Sold
by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in
London, Ontario.

Anything But a Stimulant
A local man, who suffered a slight

the irony of the episode, an insurance

trio out of the structure, The gentle
man in question was no doubt ill from
the oppressiveness of the sacred edi

that he might not pass from this vale

Ratepayers Vote to Erect
New Building
The ratepayers of Exeter have
voiced their approval of the erection
of a municipal building to be used
as a skating rink and recreational
centre. In a keenly contested vote
on Tuesday the majority was 86 in
favor of such a project. The ques
tion of the.erection of such a build
ing has been in the minds of some
of the citizens for some time and at
a recent public meeting a committee
was formed to secure plans and esti
mates. It was proposed to erect a
building the front part of which could
be used as a gymnasium and recrea
tional centre particularly in connec
tion with-the Exeter H. S. and the
back part to be used as a skating
rink. After securing plans, expert ad
vice and estimates, the committee
were assured that such a building
could be erected for ten thousand dol
lars.—Exeter Times-Advocatc.

It has been suggested that there be

seed is not wasted and that gardens
are made to produce.—Kincardine Re
