BACK TO WORK
■ ‘' I 'IIE most important job for con
grcss today is what it has been
for the last six years—to pul America
back to work. This must be the watch
word. Back to work for the unem
ployed. Back to work for idle capital
and empty factories. Back to work for
all to the task of creating a better world.
Only under an administration dedicated
to such a program can America once
more move forward.”—U. S. Represen
tative J. William Ditter.
Mistakes Make Humble
The best of men and the most

The Better Way to
Correct Constipation
One way to treat constipation is
to endure it first and cure it
afterward. The other way is to
avoid having it by getting at its
cause. So why not save yourself
those dull headachy days, plus
the inevitable trips to the medi
cine chest, if you can do it by a
simple common-sense “ounce of
prevention”?
If your trouble, like that of
millions, is due to lack of “bulk”
in the diet, “the better way” is to
eat Kellogg’s All-Bran. This
crunchy, toasted, ready-to-eat
cereal has just the “bulk” you
need. If you eat it every day-and
drink plenty of water—you can
not only get regular but keep
regular, day after day and month
after month! All-Bran is made
by Kellogg’s in Battle Creek. Sold
by every grocer.

In the Cause
It is the cause, and not the
death, that makes the martyr.—
