SHE FELT MARVEL OUS WHEN HABITS BECAMERE6ULAR Kellogg's All-Bran Believed Her Constipation Read this splendid letter: "I i tried everything, with little or no j results. I felt miserable, was 20 j but looked much older, and my skirt j was continually breaking out. "I decided to try All-Bran, three meals a day for about a week.

Kellogg's All-Bran provides "bulk" to aid elimination. It also furnishes vitamin B and iron. The "bulk" in All-Bran is gen tle and safe for normal individ uals.

Get Going, Order "Get going!" was the order. It was obeyed. The pickets retreated some 600 yards down the road. Meanwhile & shift of about 30 men went to work at the Argonaut for the first time in months without passing i jeering line of strikers. Although Jackson citizens, follow ing, the pioneer precent of "mind your own bxisfness, would not talk of it, officers believed the picket tent 1 had been set on fire by vigilantes j during the night. Warnings to the ! strikers have been posted and dis-: tributed from time to time in Amador county by the "Mother Lode Vigi lante Committee No, 48," & cttzens' group.

THE GRANGE Jacksonville Grange The Jacksonville Grange member ship contest closed with the losing side giving an honest to goodness pre-depresslon feed at the last social meeting. The dining hall was filled to capacity as was each member pres ent. The lecturer. Miss Doris Conger, introduced Mrs. Nellie Niedermeyer who gave an original reading. "To the Losers." In this old world of sinners, we are losers or we're winners. Yet the only ones we ever hear about Are those "denros" we call the heroes. How their fame we do extol and ioudiy shout. "Ah," we say, "the winners." Yes. they banquet at our dinners. And they make the turk and trim mins fairly fly. But we never ope our faces 'bout the chumps In second places. No! They simply bring the honor ed ones more pie. Now it seems this raucous raving of I a champion's late behaving, j Has at last been very grossly over ' done. Here he's pictured when adinlng. this j is what he wears reclining. Moonglow cream protects his skin ! when in the sun. I i But what of the losing "boobey? Doe j he ever mafce a movie? Do you ever hear how msrvelom I his pluck? Do they look his family tree up? Do they hand to him a gold cup? No! The? sy, too bad old man, that' your hard luck. Greater heroes are they far than the guys who think they are, I (Si For they put forth equaS effort in j the race. They produce a handsome feed, praise j the ones who did succeed. j While they hide defeat behind a smiling face. So, to every blooming ioser be he Texan or a Hoosier, I am here to shout his praises to the skies. It takes courage, strength and sinew, to though losing, still continue. So more glory to the ginls who bravely tries. Ike Dunford then responded for the new members. Just before leav ing the tables Miss Erma Kiedermey er played a few selections on her violin-tike. The Jacksonville chorus under the direction of Mrs. Mae Jor dan MacDonough sang a number of songs'during the evening. A very en joyable hour was spent in marches and folk dances with Louise J. Brock wway, recreational chairman in charge. Since the banquet, the H. E. C. ladles have spent one day in the kit chen directing the Grange men In carpentry. New drawers were built In j the kitchen and new tables andi benches constructed in the dining! room so that many more may be seated at one time. Any farmer interested in Grange work, who would like to join Jack sonville Grange is welcome, George Wendt of Jacksonville is the present Master and Mrs. Emma Conger, home economics chairman.
