DELICIOUS CEREAL
OvERCOMES COMMON
CONSTIPATION
ALL-BRAN Provides Bulk"
Vitamin B and Iron

Kellogg's ALL-BRAN meets a basic
need of the American dietary. It
supplies bulk helpful III cor
recting common constipation. In
eleven years, ALL-BRAN has won
millions of satisfied users.
New tests show added reasons
for the success of ALL-BRAN. Lab
oratory experiments prove that, in
addition to "bulk," it provides vita
min B to help tone the intestinal
tract.
The headaches, loss of appetite
and energy that so often result from
constipation can be overcome by
this pleasant cereal. How much bet
ter than using pills and drugs.
ALL-BRAN is mild. Its bulk" is
much like that of lettuce. Within
the body, it absorbs moisture and
forms a soft mass, which gently
clears the intestines of wastes.
Two tablespoonful daily are sufi-
cient to overcome most types of con-
stipation. Chronic cases, with every
meal. If not relieved this way, see
your doctor.
Another benefit of ALL-BRAN is
that it has twice as much blood
building iron as an equal amount
by weight Of beef liver.
Serve as a cereal, or use in cook
ing. Tempting recipes on the red
and-green package. Sold by all gro-
GERS. Made by Kellogg in Battle
Creek.

TIMES have changed in many
L ways but Christmas customs
and festivities remain much the
same year after year. In fact.
most families resent any marked
innovation in the festivities and
consider the Christmas dinner
lacking if the cook fails to provide
the traditional fayorites.
Careful planning on the part oil
the home-maker will simplify the
preparation of her dinner so that
che may enjoy her own gifts and
guests without oyerwork and Wor-
~. Several days before Christmas
she will take stock of her staple
supplies and be sure that all table
appointments are ready for use.
The day before Christmas is us
ually very busy day for the cook.
The fowl should be cleaned and
stuffed and trussed. ready for the
oven. The pudding sauce can be
made at least in part. The salad
dressing can be made one or two
days before wanted and kept on
ice. The celery can be crisped and
wrapped in a damp towel and
stored in the refrigerator until
wanted. The lettuce can be wash
ed and crisped and kept in an air
{ight container. Consomme or
bouillon should be made and clari-
lied all ready for relocating. A
rream soup can be prepared to
combine with thin white sauce.
Fowl or Roast Appropriate
All this planning produces a
schedule that will reduce the
amount of work left to be done on
Christmas day to a minimum.
Goose has been the popular
Christmas bird for centuries but
any sort of fowl or roast is in per
feet keeping. A study of world
wide customs shows great yari-
ETY. of meats from which to choose.
The woman who has no maid
may hesitate to serve an elaborate,
many-course dinner. but if chill
