MOTHER IN-LAW CHEERS
LONG SOUGHT RELIEF!
Had Been Irregular"
for Years!

Have you often despaired Of
ever finding normal regularity?
Then, by all means, read this I'M
solicited letter:
"For many long years, my mother-in-
law had suffered from common constipa-
ton. She used to take all kinds of pills and
medicines, but got no lasting relief. Upon
starting to use KELLOGG'S ALL-BRANs
her trouble cleared up. She feels like q
new person, she says. She wanted me to
tell the world how your product helped
her." Mrs. Poline Balls, 734 East 160th
Street, Bronx. N. Y.
How do scientists explain the
apparent magic" of KELLOGG'S
ALL-BRAN's relief? Simply
thus: ALL-BRAN is one Of Ma
lures most effective sources of
"cellulosic" elements - lack of
which in sufficient amounts in the
diet is a common cause of con-
stipation! These elements help the
friendly colonic flora fluff up and
Tighten the colonic wastes for easy,
natural elimination. KELLOGG'S
ALL-BRAN doesn't work by
"purging"-or by sweeping you
out" It is gentle-acting, 'regu-
lating" food!
If this is your trouble eat
KELLOGG'S ALL-BRAN regu-
larry. Drink plenty of water! See
if you don't find the welcome relief
you've hoped for! Insist on genuine
ALL-BRAN, made only by Kel-
logg's in Battle Creek.

Comfortable Chair
It's Easy to Make

THE war is bringing many
= changes in the things we use
and the things we do. Women as
we'll as men are learning to handle
tools. If a chair is lacking we
make one. If we cannot have
springs we find way to make it
comfortable anyway. That is the
spirit of the times.
Perhaps you have made lawn
chairs all with straight cuts of the
hand saw. Have you ever stopped

to realize that it is almost as easy
to cut curves with a compass saw?
Curves add comfort as well as
beauty and a tufted cushion dis
tributes the weight so that springs
are not missed so much. The
curved pieces of the charming
chair sketched here are shown at

they are to cut out of odds and
ends of one-inch lumber that you
may have on hand. The reinforc-
ing pieces are all straight cuts.

First Choice in the Service

If you've ever noticed the top Of
Marine Officers visor cap,
you've seen on it something you
won't find on any other cap worn
in Uncle Sans service-a neat
"X'' of looped braid.
There's a story back Of that
braided "X', and it goes back
more than $50 years, to a time
shortly after the U. S. Marines
were first organized.
In those days of sailing ships,
naval battles often ended in close
hand-to-hand fighting, as the crew
of one ship tried to board the 9TH
Grand Marines, of course, were
in the thick of the fight. Some were
in the boarding party, and some
were posted in the rigging to fire
down on the enemy. It was be-
cause of those men firing from
high on the masts that Marine Of
ficers-whose uniforms from above
resembled the enemy's - fixed
"X'S" on their hats.
In other words, that braid meant
to the Marines in the rigging, tx
marks the spot-not to shoot att"
Since those days, the TX" on the
cap has become a standard part
of the Marines uniform. Another
piece of standard equipment"
you'll notice among Marines these
days-whether they're wearing
dress uniform or combat dunga-
rees-is the American cigarettes
they carry with them wherever
they go. In all those news pictures
you've seen of Uncle Sans fight
ing men, snapped as they are re-
Taxing while "off duty" you'll find
that in most cases they will be
smoking a cigarette. And what
brand do they prefer? Well, actual
sales records show that the favo-
rite with men in the Marines-as
in the Navy-is Camel. Likewise,
according to the sales records,
Camels are first choice with men
In the Army.
Fighting men who have come

forces are stationed - give one
pretty good reason for this choice.
They say that Camels stay fresh
that out in the ;jungles OF, Guadal-
canal, for instance, the Camels
they get are actually just as fresh
tasting and full-1avored as the
ones they used to get back home.
OF course, the millions of men
in training camps here at home
want their cigarettes just as much
as soldiers. Your dealer now has

Motif
OF Holiday Table

Let simplicity be the keynote Of
your table decorations during the
holiday season. Food and fine fell
lowship are complete without yards
Of dazzling tinsel and impressive dis
plays to center the table.
Warmth should be reflected by the
colorsl of the centerpiece. Polished
apples, sprays Of evergreen from the
tree in the front yard, fruit cake
with sprigs of red holly, and greet
ings written with pomegranate seeds
on mirror spell out the Christmas
message.
Evergreen Corsages.
Individual evergreen corsages on
top of the napkin at each place are
economical and attractive. Select
sprays Of evergreen which are about
four inches long and fasten cluster
Of bittersweet or cranberries to the
center with fine wire. Cover the
wire with small red ribbon and
tie bow on the front of the corsage.
Bind the bottom Of the stem with
clear, sticky cellophane to keep any
of the natural sap of the branch
from seeping out. Equip each cor
sage with a small pin.
Center the table with group Of
four corsages on mirror. Place
the stem ends at the center as the
base for one broad Christmas cam
die. The mirror will reflect the
bright colors and will catch the drip
ping wax from the candle.
Fruit Wreath.
A fruit Christmas wreath on q
polished chop plate is made Of green
grapes instead of the holly and dot
ted with clusters of redscranberries
rather than holly berries. The wreath
is finished with large red bow.
Wash a bunch of light green grapes
In warm water and break them into
clusters about two inches in diam
eter. Remove any spotted or dried
grapes from the punches. Arrange
in a circle on large wooden plat
ter, with the fruit overlapping to
make an even wreath.
Cut fine wire or white, wiry pipe
cleaners into two-inch lengths with
the kitchen scissors. Place bright
cranberry on the end of each piece
Of wire. Twist three or four Of the
cranberry-tipped wires together to
form a. cluster. Of berries, Tuck the
ends of the wire deep into the grape
wreath.
