Without health there can be little natural beauty. The wise woman knows that the condition of her body shows itself on her face, her complexion, and in her eyes. She takes care to avoid constipa tion. This treacherous ailment fre quently causes headaches, sallow skin, pimples, premature aging. Try the pleasant "cereal way" to protect yourself from constipation. Science has proved that Kellogg's All-Bran provides' "bulk" to exer cise the intestines, and Vitamin B to tone the intestinal tract. All Bran also furnishes iron, which helps build up the blood. The "bulk" in this delicious ce real is much like that of lettuce. How much safer than abusing your system with pills and drugs so often habit-forming I Two tablespoonfuls daily will correct most types of constipation. All-Bran is not habit-forming. If your intestinal trouble is not re lieved this way, sea your doctor. Get the rod-and-green package at your grocer's. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.

"Stylish Stouts"; ,v ,: Will be Presented MISS HEATH TO DEVOTE TIME TO FOOD SEASONING (Continued From Page One) "Wursts" of strong ' ingredients, matched the tart bitter beers of some sections; veal sausage and braun schweiger of liver suited the lighter drinks of other districts. Many Germans declare that the true German cook Is able to offer a different flavor of soup for every day In the year. Schmlerkose, or cottage cheese, came into Its popularity In Germany because It offered an ideal back ground to the highly flavored pum pernickel and rye bread, in . which German bakers reign supreme. America has been made the melting-pot for these and many other nations, and as a result the Ameri can housewife has as her heritage the combined flavoring and seasoned possibilities of every nation in the world, in which, says Miss Heath, she Is lucky. ; American cooks have been a long time In availing themselves of the open secrets of seasoning, however. the home economist says. She at tributes this to the fact that Eng lish dishes predominated in the older sections of the country and Eng lish people have never developed a taste for varied seasonings. Also, native early American dishes such as buckwheat cakes, corn pone, clam chowder, corn on the cob, and pork and beans did not work In readily with the extracts and condi ments which formed the magic of the European cuisine. - Miss Heath, however, will spend a great part of her Kitchen Chautauqua talks on this fascinating art the art of seasoning and flavor. She de clares that Mexican flavoring prac tices offer all sorts of new possibil ities to the American housewife. , "Well prepared chill, tamales and enchiladas offer Intriguing possibil ities," says the home economist. So lads and then appropriate dress ings will also take up a part of tho Kitchen Chautauqua's "flavor hours." Every Individual aolnd deserves an individual dressing, this food expert declares, and by dressing a salad In appropriate "clothes" it will be In finitely more tasty. There'll be lots of other things to see and talk about at the Kitchen Chautauqua, too. And we know you can't afford to miss it. "The Stylish Stouts," a play, will bo presented by a group of members of the Royal Neighbors of America when they meet Monday evening at the Odd Fellows hall, A great deal of Interest Is being shown In -the event since the. cast of the play will not be announced, Mrs. Weldon Vedder, oracle of the Royal Neighbors,' stated thlB morning. : 1 Each member Is given tho privilege of Inviting a guest for the evening. " Debate Feature At Ladies Aid Meeting "Women's Responsibility as a Citi zen" was the topic for an interesting debate held at the meeting of the Ladles Aid of the Methodist Church South yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. J. K. Charlton. The hostess led the devotions, using as her theme "Courage of Jesus." Mrs. W. B. Starmer sang a vocal solo.
