The blame for "blue" days can bo laid often to common constipation. It may bring loss of appetite nnd energy, sallow and pimply skins, even' serious illness. Correct it by eating a delicious cereal. Research shows Kellogg's All Bran provides "bulk" and vitamin 1) to relieve common constipation. Also iron for tho blood. The "bulk" in All-Bran is much like that in leafy vegetables. Isn't this better than taking patent med icines so often harmful? Two tnhlespoonfuls of All-Bran daily, relieve most types of constipa tion. With each meal, in chronic rases. If not relieved this way, see your doctor. Get the red and - green package nt your grocer's. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
