These trees are mostly poplar, with a few maples and birch cut also. Some of the logs have been dragged for fouror five rods. Some near the bank are taken to the water and floated down. For several years beavers have tried to build a home in that vicinity, but the home has always been destroyed.

I am so glad over the good it has done ane that I feel I. must write and tell you of it, "For lunch I take a banana, a large one. Six tablespoons of ALL - BRAN in a sauce dish, and dip banana at each bite until ail is consumed. I haven't been consti- pated now for seven weeks," --Mrs; Louise Johnson (address furnished upon request), Constipation often causes head- aches, loss of appetite and energy,' sleeplessness. This condition is us- ually due to lack of "bulk" to ex- ercise the intestines, and vitamin B to further promote regular habits. Kellogg's ALL -BRAN has both, as well as iron for the blood. The "bulk" in ALL -BRAN is much like that in leafy vegetables. Wth- in the body, it forms a soft mass. Gently, it clears out the wastes. Try ALL -BRIAN in place of patent medicines - often harmful. Two tablespoonfuls daily will overcome most types of constipation. Chronic cases, with each meal. If not re- lieved this way, see your doetor. Use asa cereal, orin cooking.
