MILLIONS have found Kellogg's
ALL-BRAN a safe way to over
come common constipation. Now
science shows this delicious cereal
brings three benefits to the diet:
Bulk" Vitamin B. Iron.
The 'bulk" in ALL-BRAN Is
much like the "bulk' in lettuce
only it is concentrated in a
more convenient form to relieve
constipation. 1t absorbs mois-
ture, forms a soft mass, which
gently clears out the wastes.
Vitamin B tones the intestines,
and promotes regular habits.
Iron builds blood, and aids health
generally.
No wonder ALL-BRAN Is o n
sidered far more natural than
pills and drugs - so often habit

fuls daily. If you suffer from

consciously when seeing well planned
written page we realize that here is an
attractive, beauty-loving personality.
Wide, even margins and good spacing
show good taste. just as well arranged
rooms do. The person who has clear,

Individual letter forms need not be
beautiful in order to show an apprecia-

artists are very poor scribes, but not
ugly ones. Perfection is not always
beauty Thus writing may derive beauty
from individual letters which are not
in themselves beautiful, but which lend
character to otherwise commonplace
writing

First. Year Feeding.

Feeding the first year is not COM
plicated matter if the mother fixes a
few elementary facts in her mind. The
additional foods up to months Of age
are cereals, orange juice and vegetables.
Egg yolk is usually added some time be-
tween z and IL months and cod liver
oil is a constant food during the
months from September to June. Dur
ing the other months sunlight furnishes
baby with the necessary vitamin ID ele-
ment, which makes for sturdy bone and
tooth development.
The breast-fed baby is weaned at q
months The bottle-fed baby gets an
increasingly stronger milk formula until
he is of an age and weight to get I'M
diluted whole milk, any time between 9
months and / year. This Is a hasty
outline of the facts for which Mrs. K.
M and many of my readers are writ
ing.
Here are the problems confronting
Mrs. K. M: MY baby is months old
and weighs 1912 pounds. Is he over
weight? When does he get undiluted
milk? He has two teeth. Is that right
for his age? He's on the three-hour
schedule and feed him when go to

wakens about $3.50 am. for another
feeding. Shouldn't he sleep through

He gets cereal, milk desserts. some
strained vegetables, tomato juice and
chicken or beef broth I think that
ought to be enough solids. He sleeps in
the room with US. Would it be better
to let him sleep in room alone? Does
he need cod liver oil? He is nice and
brown from sun baths. He's beginning
to creep all over. Is he too young for
this activity?"
He is larger than the average =
month-old baby who started life with a

Finger-Wayed Couture.

There are three types Of hair which
VIII take a finger wave beautifully
naturally curly hair. hair which is soft
and pliable and will train easily and
hair which has been given a permanent
wave. 1t is waste Of time to attempt
to finger wave very straight, coarse and
unyielding hair. Those with hair OF
this kind will do well to stick to the
marcel or have a permanent wave, II
they feel they must have a wave, but
during the Summer months, when q
marcel Is hard to keep, 1t is often best
to try to find a becoming way Of wear
ing the hair straight.
Before arranging finger wave the
first thing to do is to put part IN your
hair where you wish It to be in the I'm
ished couture. If you do not want any
part, comb the hair straight back.
To illustrate the finger waving proc
eSs, the following couture, which would
be suited to young girl who is allowing
her hair to grow long, has been selected:
Make two parts in the hair, beginning
over the center of each eyebrow. Con-
tinue the ends of the parts in converg-
ing lines to point about two inches
back of the top of the head. This will
give you a roughly triangular section of
hair, which we will call No. /. Divide
the remainder of the hair into three
sections, No. 2 being the right side, No.
8 the left side and No. the back. Comb
short strand from No. to make a fiat
curl on the right side of the forehead.
Now finger wave the right section of
the hair-No 2. First dampen the hair
and comb it out, thoroughly. Holding
the hair firmly with the left hand, comb
1t a little to the left and downward to
form the first wave. Hold this wave in
place between your first and second fin
gers while you form the next wave by
drawing the hair upward with the comb,
then downward and up again. Place
the third finger of the left hand In the
second wave to hold it in place. Make

any other information about 1t. know
of one family whose young children
were keen about plants because they
had been so encouraged to make collec-
tionS of flowers in their season. They
would spot new or different blossoms as
quick as a fash
I remember when one of these little
folk was not yet In her teens and went
motoring In q country new to her, she
counted SO familiar flowers in an after
Moons drive The country was begin
ming to be an open book of wonders and
pleasures to her.
A knowledge of trees both by their
banks and by their foliage is more diff
ficult. 1t is not so hard to learn leaves
as bark and so it Is wise not to puzzle
little children with the latter. When
foliage Is known, some of the trees with
pronounced types of bark such as locust
and white birch will probably already
be recognizable by both traits. The
shapes of trees is also revealing, apple
trees by their gnarled branches, elms by
their graceful sweeping curves willows
by their trailing leafy fronds, etc
To really enjoy the out-of-doors
means more than just to revel in the
fresh air and sunshine, and landscape
and sea views. These are some of the
pleasures which can be immensely in
creased by an intimacy with living and
growing things.
