EVERY WOMAN FACES THIS QUESTION

How do look to other people? So many women risk their beauty by neglect of constipation. 1t often causes loss of pep, sallow skins, dull eyes, poor complexions.
 Yet common constipation can be ended so easily. Just eat two table spoonfuls of Kellogg's ALL~BRAN with milk or fruits every day, three times daily in severe cases. This delicious ready-to-eat cereal SUD- plies the "bulk" needed to exercise the system-and vitamin B to help tone up the intestinal tract.
 Within the body, ALL-BRAN ab- sorbs more than twice it's weight in water, gently sponging out the in- testines. It never causes the arti- ficial action of pills and drugs, that often prove ineffective.
 Kellogg's ALL-BRAN, you see, is food-not a medicine. It relieves common constipation the way Ma ture intended - so it's results are safe. Buy it at your grocer's. Made and guaranteed by Kellogg in Battle Creek.

 tory Says Dimond

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29. = An 'hony J. Dimond, Delegate-t to- Con- gress from Alaska, asks Congress in bill introduced today to authorize he establishment of a naval base n Alaska.

DROWSY DRIVERS


When an automobile driver
falls asleep at the wheel the
chances are very good indeed that
he will not wake up again.
Studies by the National Safety
council cited by the Minnesota
State Medical association in
bulletin issued today show that
about one in every II of the acct
dents that happen when the driv-
er falls asleep kills somebody and
in one-third of the cases the
cases the driver, himself, is kill
ed.
The most important conclusion
drawn from these studies was
that driver-asleep accidents are
not the result of long, gruelling
drives. Nearly half of them hap
pened to people who had been
driving for less than two hours.
One-third of them happened to
people who had been without
sleep for 16 to 20 hours.
The trouble is that the drivers
were out trying to drive cars
without the normal period of sew
en- or eight hours sleep out of "a.
The most common victim was the
drowsy driver returning home
from late party.
The physicians advise motorists
who have a hard time staying
awake to remember that they are
running grave risk of their own
lives as well as the lives of
others. They should get off the
road Immediately and not return
to it until they have made up the
necessary hours of sleep.

Farm Ownership

ALL OF rural Minnesota is interested
in the work of the rural rehabilitation divi-
sion of the Resettlement administration. R..
l. NOVEL;, regional director, has made a re-
cent statement that 5000 Minnesota farm
ers, three-fourths of them in the tenant
class, are being assisted toward farm own
ership through standard loans.
Everyone who has had any experience
with farms realizes that the successful farm
er is the one who owns his farm. AS a usual
thing, the farm owner hopes to sell his farm
to his tenant. In the bright days of farming,
this was also the normal expectancy of the
farm tenant. The depression hit the farm
er with such force that he found it difficult
to make living and was forced to give up
any payments he hoped to make toward
farm ownership. That the government is
now assisting 5000 Minnesota farmers to-
ward farm ownership will prove boost for
agriculture.
Farming is seasonal work and the farm
er who is successful must work tirelessly
during the busy season. No other occupa-
ton is so subservient to the caprices Of
weather, and with this in mind the amSit-
ious farmer must sometimes work Is hours
a day in order to plant his grain, cut his
crop, or thresh it when the days are favor
able for such work. This ambition thrives
more on home-owned farm than on rented
farm. Likewise the interest in crop rota-
ton, diversified farming, soil conservation,
etc., is keener when the farmer owns his own
land.
The latest agricultural census shows
that Minnesota had 68,412 tenant farmers,
comprising 33 per cent of all farm operators
in the state. AS rural rehabilitation sue
ceeds in reducing this percentage Minnesota
will find itself more prosperous state

her to Dick Hyman's office. Hy-

I'm a very curious woman, Mr.,

he had. The public forgets and
when the hold on the box Office

won't even talk about a contract.
He can work up again but he don't
say anything when 1 ask him
about what he wants me to do.
He oughta know he can't get
another play this season. One
play was as much as his public'll
take. Maybe you can talk to
him."
"I'll try" she said and got up.
She was completely disconnected,
too astonished and frightened to
have the agent say anything more.
She didn't talk about it to Joel
for several days and then, when
she asked him what he wanted to
do, he got up, walked over to the
mantle and put his head on his
arms.
I'm washed up, Janet. don't
want to go back to pictures. I
don't know what I want. I only
know that I'm a ham and I'm
