Feverish Diseases

The chance of catching malaria and other fever- ish diseases is far greater, if the power of reaist- ance is lowered. Lack of minerals in the body usually causes this lowering. Tiredness, heart troubles, irritability and dizziness are signs that your power of resistance is below par. Prevent serious trouble by taking Kalzana tablets regularly. Kalzana replenishes the

mineral content of the body and blood cells in a perfectly natural way, strengthens the whole system, and so prevents serious infectious diseases, such as malaria, skin rashes, etc.

"I have suffered from very bad nervous headaches for 10 years and after having taken Kalzana I feel as fit me a fiddle.

Will he give wings to his brain and find a vision for the future to work out a constructive use for this new, power? Or will be do as our grandfather did when they discovered machinery, and themselves became slaves to the machines?

The crowd began to gather in the station fully an hour before the London train was due to arrive, and while they were waiting they were quite orderly and responded immediately, to the orders of the police to keep off the carriageway.

By the time the train pulled in at the platform there would be about 9.000 or 10,000 persons in the station, and many of them, in order to see Lynch, had climbed pillars and gained other elevated vantage points.

Banning Troops For Spain

The prospect of an early in- ternational agreement to prohibit the further despatch of volunteers to Spain was strengthened by the publication. of the German and Italian replies to the British ap peal of Jan. 10.

These reveal that both countries have prepared legislation to ban volunteers and are ready to adopt it as soon as general agreement has been reached for simultaneous sction by all Powers and an ade- quate system of pontról.
