"For many years I have been habitually constipated, and have used all sorts of laxatives. So, in fairness to Kellogg's Aix-Bran, I heartily claim it to be a most won. derful remedy for constipation. "Need I tell you that I have long since ceased using laxatives? KeJ logg'e All-Bran is the National Natural Laxative. If it were used by every family in the , UniUd States for breakfast, we would have a much healthier race of peo ple." Mr. John Daniels, 1090 Third St., North Bergen, N. J. . Tests show Kellogg's All-Bran furnishes "bulk" to exercise the in testines and vitamin B to help tone the intestinal tract. All-Bran also supplies iron for the blood. The "bulk" in All-Bran is much like that in leafy vegetables. Isn't this food much pleasanter than risking pills and drugs? Two table spoonfuls daily are usually, suffi cient.
