MEALS OFTEN FAIL TO GIVE NEEDED INTERNAL EXERCISE ALL-BRAN Relieves Common Meals that are low in "bulk" are a common failing of the average American diet. Frequently, these result in irregular habits. Constipation due to insufficient "bulk" is often a consequence. This condition causes discomfort, and may lead to headaches and loss of appetite. Even serious disease may develop.

Banish the danger of diet low in "bulk" by eating Kellogg's ALLBRAN regularly. This delicious cereal is an abundant source of gentle. "bulk." Within the body, it absorbs moisture and forms a soft mass, which exercises and strengthens intestinal muscles, and cleanses the system. ALL-BRAN also furnishes vitamin and contains iron, Two tablespoonfuls daily, with milk or cream, are usually sufficient. If not relieved this way, consult your doctor.

How much pleasanter to enjoy this natural food in place of pills and drugs. Serve ALL- BRAN in some form each day, either as cereal, or cooked into muffins, breads, etc. Eat it regularly for regular habits. ALL-BRAN is sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.

due to insuficient "bulk" CORWITH--Funeral services Mrs. Mary E. Wilhite, 77, a resident of this community for 52 years and widow of Eli T. Wilhite, prominent pioneer farmer, were held at the Methodist church Saturday afternoon in charge of Rev. Karl W.
