Miss Josephine Simmons, Missj Finds Kellogg’s Bran “Easy way to avoid constipation” after suffering for years Constipation is a dangerous disease. It can lead to many others. Twenty years’ suffering with constipation un dermined this man ’e health. Kellogg’s Bran restored it—as it has done for thousands. This is what ho says: "Gentlemen: After eating Kellogg’s Bran twice a day for one month I find it not only an ‘Easy Way to Avoid Constipa tion,' but an easy and most pleasant way to cure it. I have been troubled with constipation . . . for more than twenty years . . . after adopting the milk and bran diet I find my stomach greatly improved, and find it a specific for constipation. . . . I deem it only justice that you should know what your product has done for me, and what it is capable of doing for others.” (The original of this letter is on file at the Kellogg Company, Battle Creek, Mich.)

THIRSTY ONES GROAN 24,000 IW OF BOOZE APEDESTP9YED Wines, Beer, Scotch and Rye Found in Car Seized in Atlanta ATLANTA, Novj, 11.—Prohibi tion agents stationed at Atlanta headquarters spent practically the entire day Monday in removing and destroying approximately 21,001 quarts of hig-grade liquor from the freight car in which the large ship ment was* discovered Sunday night. Guards were stationed about the car after the Atlanta ponce depart mei.t, investigated a report that the car contained liquor and iour.d ample evidence on which to order hat the car be dr tacked from a north-bound train. He notified Prohibition Director Fred D. Dis mule and turned the illicit cargo ever to federal agents. Director Dismuke held a brief conference with J. W. Powell, legal adviser to the prohibit!*) i depart ment, ordered that the Ljuor ship ment be removed fro: 1 the freight car and destroyed. The car was switche I into a sid ing and the business of destroying the cargo got under way. The lum ber under which the liquor was j acked was remove I and large trucks were brought alongside the car. Scores of curious citizens gathered about the scene. Guards mounted the trucks and the contraband shipment w;.< driven through the downtown section on its way to destruction. Scores of people followed the fascinating freight to t. e “slaught er,” and groans in un sion broke forth as hammers snri-hed the first cases of whisky. Scotch, rye, beer and other va rieties of drinks wen. the same route as the hammers continued to smash glass for hours. The greater portion of the shipment was con tained in jute sacks of six-quarts capacity each. However, hundred.! of cases were in ti e crates, once familiar to brewers and consumers.! Hammers fell on sacks and crates alike. Shortly after 3 o’clock, thej lest of the shipment trickled into ■ the soft earth where it was being poured out. Police ana prohibition i agents set the remams on fire and thrones of Atlanta’s populace welch ed the great clouds of . moi e r’sc as newspaper and moving ;;>ci uro film photographers “snapped” :.nd “shot” to their heart’s content. Broken Bottle Gives Cne. In the meantime, Director Dis ir.uke launched an investigation into the source from whicn the. I.quor came. It was billed as lumber from Jakysin and John, on, Bruns wick, to Mitchell Johns' n, Inc., of Chicago. Railroad officials volun teered their services in seeking to establish the man or men who s' ip ped the cargo. Captain Fain /ollowe i a tip that the car contained liquor and halted its northward trip. It was reported that a railroad employee grew sus picious after he smelled liquor while passing the car in the yards east of the Union station. A bittie that was broken while in transit is cred ited with having betrayed the il’icit consignment. LEATHER BAGS We have a new line of up-to-date Leather Bags.
