If your diet lacks “bulk”, the solution is a bowl of Kellogg’s crisp All-Bran for breakfast every ,Jt contains the necessary bulk and Vitamin Bi, the natural intestinal tonic. Eat some All-Bran every day, drink lots of water and become ”regular.’\ Made In London, Canada, by Kellogg. At all gro-x cers. V J Wroxeter rink, $5.70; County Treas., hospital expenses for Mrs. S.
