MOTHER HELPED BY
KELLOGG'S ALL-BRAN

"I have suffered from terrible
constipation since the birth of my
first child. 1 tried everything. Very
reluctantly, I tried your ALL-BRAN
with no faith in it at all.
"Much to my surprise, I have
not had to take any medicine since
starting to use ALL-BRAN."- Mrs.
Doris Eyre King, 16 Abbey Road,
Oxford, England.
Common constipation is usually
due to meals low in "bulk." Kel-
logg's ALL-BRAN supplies this
needed "bulk."
Within the body, this cereal alb
serbs twice its weight in water,
forms a soft mass, gently sponges
out the system. ALL-BRAN also
furnishes vitamin B to tone up the
intestines, and iron for the blood.
Enjoy this food instead Of tax
ing weakening pills and drugs.
Serve IS a cereal with milk or
fruits, or cook into recipes.
AL1-BRAN is sold by your grocer.
Made and guaranteed by Kellogg

MRS. BINGHAM
SUES IN MIAMI
FOR RDIV0RCE
Special to The Washington Times

Special to The Washington Times
MIAMI, Fla, March 18.-Capi-
tol Hills most persistent rumor,
the split between the Hiram Blng-
hams, was confirmed here yeSter-
day when the former United States
Senator was named in divorce suit
started by his wife Of 81 years,
Mrs. Alfredo M. Bingham.
It was in 1928, after % years
of married life, when the attitude
Of the statesman toward her
changed, Mrs. Bingham alleged
in her bill of complaint.
Called Indifferent
Since that time, she said, his
attitude "has been one of cold
indifference and he has repeat
edly stated that he desired the
plaintiff to leave his home SO that
he could go his own way with
out her."
Further reference is made to a
"cold and aloof" attitude on
Bingham's part, Mrs. Bingham
charging that "he repeatedly re-
fused to discuss with her topics
of general interest, saying she
was incompetent to discuss such
topics" All of this, her attorneys
contend, constitutes m en- t a
cruelty.
Property Settlement
An out-of-court property settle
want ie fYNGi0nfnI Mo oliY10n0U iC
asked.
There are seven sons and daugh-
tiers, all over 81 years of age, so
no question of custody is involved.
Bingham was first elected to the
United States Senate in December,
1924, just a month after he had
been elected Governor Of Connecti-
cut.
Interested in aviation and for
mer president of the National
Aeronautical Association, he was
the only Senator ever to hold
pilots license. Even after he was
defeated in 1882 he kept up his
fight to advance the United States
to the first place in aero-military
supremacy.
On d. C. Committee
The tall, gray-haired and ener-
getic Senator was familiar figure
in the District, having been chair
man of the Senate subcommittee
on the District of Columbia Ap-
propriationS Committee from 1928
to 1888.
Senator Bingham, World War
aviator, explorer, author Of several
books on exploration and aviation,
kept up his fight for aviation legis-
lation during the Inauguration of
the Roosevelt Public Works Admin
istration. He aided in formulating
plans for the construction of
system of Federal airports.
