Too many people dismiss common constipation* as a matter of no great consequence, Yet this con­ dition causes discomfort, and may lead to headaches and loss of appe­ tite. When it is allowed to con­ tinue, it may lower your resistance, and so increase your chances of catching a serious illness. Common constipation often de­ velops when you eat meals that lack sufficient "bulk." Your system fails to get needed internal exer­ cise. Fortunately, today, you have a generous source of effective "bulk” in Kellogg’s All-Bran. Within the body, the "bulk" in All-Bran absorbs moisture, and forms a soft mass, which gently cleanses the system. This natural laxative food also supplies vitamin B and contains iron. Serve All-Bran as a cereal, with milk or cream, or cook into muffins, breads, etc. Two tablespoonfuls daily are usually sufficient. Stub­ born cases may require All-Bran oftener. If not relieved this way, consult your doctor. All-Bran is guaranteed by the Kellogg Company as an effective laxative food for- constipation.* Sold by all grocers. Made by Kel­ logg in London, Ontario. ^Constipation due to insufficient “bulk” Mrs. from Mrs. Evelyn Dane, and Miss Claire Pent’ land.
