Everyone who has despaired at
ever finding normal regularity
should read this unsolicited letter:
1 “Six years ago, I waa quite constipated. •
I’d taken many so-called ‘cures', but it wag
the same old story. It seemed that each doag
had to be stronger than the last. Then. I
tried KELLOGG’S ALL-BRAN. Soon I
waa ‘regular’ again, with none of the old
griping pain. I'm SO. but feel youngeg
than 20 years ago when I was a victim of
common constipation.” Mr. A. Bousfiai^
d2S 8. Villa Avenue. Villa Park. 111.
What’s the secret of such re
ports of ALL-BRAN’s wonderful
results? It’s simply this: Lack of
certain cellulosic elements in the
diet is a common cause of constipa
tion. Scientists say KELLOGG’S
ALL-BRAN is a rich, natural
source of these elements—which
help the colonic flora do their job
—lightening and fluffing the ac
cumulated waste for easy, natural
evacuation. ALL-BRAN is not a
purgative! Not roughage that
acts by “sweeping you out"! It’s a' ;
gentle-acting, “regulating" food!
Eat ALL-BRAN regularly.
Drink plenty of water. See if you,
too, don’t find the relief you’ve
dreamed of! Insist on the genuine
ALL-BRAN I It is made only bj
