THERE'S ONIY ONE WAY TO STOP CONSTIPATION You have to correct the cause, Simply taking a pill now and then is just temporary and often harmful. Most constipation is due to meals low in "bulk." Put enough "bulk" in your diet and you can really cor. rect common constipation. That's why millions of people eat Kellogg's All-Bran every day. This cereal furnishes "bulk" which does not "break down" in the body. All-Bran absorbs twice its weight in water, gently sponges and cleanses the system. Kellogg's All-Bran is a food . not a medicine. You buy it at the grocery store. Besides "bulk," it has vitamin B to tone up the intes. tines, and iron for the Wood. Eat two tablespoonfuls daily with milk or cream. Three times daily in se vere cases. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
