ENGLISH CON
GAME WORKED
Money Obtained From Many
Americans AS Supposed
Estate Heirs

WASHINGTON. Sept. s6.-tR-
Waving behind it a trail of mort
gagged homes. broken family ties
and poverty. the lure Of quick rich
es from unclaimed estates" in
England again is sweeping the
middle west.
Despite repeated warnings Of the
state department that the so-call-
cd Drake estate" and other SIM
liar ruSes to obtain money from
American citizens are mythical,
the department has again been con-
fronted with a flood Of appeals
from citizens seeking assistance in
collecting claims.
For many years, the practice OF
soliciting money from Americans
TO pay charges allegedly needed 70
obtain for them estate funds In
England has been a favorite OF
confidence men.
The matter has already been the
subject of diplomatic correspond
ence between the state department
and the British foreign office, the
latter emphasizing that such "un-
claimed estates are myths.
Under the old system, the sub
ject selected would receive a letter
from England stating he had q just
claim to a part of an estate reach
ing into many figures and asking
that q sum OF money be sent TO
ove the costs Of pursuing the
claim.
The latest system. however, Is
for the subject to be called upon
directly and asked to invest" In
the estate. the promised return
ranging from 1880 to 5000 for
every 81 invested.
One woman in Iowa recently
wrote the state department offer
- to assist in the prosecution OF
those pursuing the scheme in Iowa,
Nebraska and South Dakota
To all the pleas. the state depart
ment responds that It knows moth
ing Of such estates and on the
basis Of word from the British
foreign office doubts their exist
ence.

Is Health News
to Them

Millions know that headaches,
general depression and other all
ments are caused by constipation.
They know that cathartics, pills and
patent medicines will not effect per-
manent relief. They will be keenly
interested in the natural, effective
remedy for constipation that ex-
p%erience. has revealed to other
millions.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is eaten
everywhere today for the relief and
prevention of constipation. This de-
licious cereal adds roughage to the
diet that is absolute assurance
against this dreaded disease.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is guaran-
teed to relieve both temporary and
recurring constipation.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN Is the orig
inal ALL-BRAN. 1t not only pre-
vents constipation, but contains
abundant iron that enriches the
blood and brings the radiant glow
Of health to the complexion. With
milk or fruit juices, it also brings
important vitamins.
Eating Kellogg's ALL-BRAN
daily Is a most healthful habit. II is
especially essential in reducing diets.
