Since I have been eating it, people tell mo I am looking better, and I am sure that I feel a great deal better." Mrs. L. W. Duke, 210 Hardin Ave., College Park, Ga. Constipation is usually caused by lack of two things in tho diet: "Bulk" to cxerciso tho intestines; Vitamin B to help give them tone. Kellogg's All-Bran provides both of these dietary necessities, as well as iron for tho blood. . ' Within the body, the "bulk" in All-Bran forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. V How much mora natural it is to enjoy this delicious cereal than to risk taking ' pills and drugs so often harmful. . , ; Just eat two tablcspoonfuls daily sorious cases with every niioal for most types of constipation.
