It is fitting that one of the most outstanding ships in the world to be commissioned în 1921 should carry the most complete wireless equipment ever installed In ship, and the Marconi installation of the Empress of Britain may be thus described. It also affords a striking demonstration of the markably high standard that has been attained in mariae wireless equipment. It includes telegraph transmitters and receivers for long and short wave-lengths; short- wave duplex telephone apparatus with a world-wide radius: lifenoat wireless sets; a wireless direction finder; and, although not strictly speaking, wircress equipment & bund repeater and music player which will provide entertainment

Four large cabins are devoted exclusively to the wireless equipment. The long and short wave telegraph installa- tions and a broadcast receiver are contained in a large cabin, measur ing 14 feet by 18 feet, situated just aft the bridge. Two other cabins on the top deck are devoted to the telephone apparatus. The re- ceiving cabin, 12 feet by 10 feet, Is between the first and second funnels, and the transmitting cabin, 22 feet by 18 feet, between the second and CB third funnels.

A Revolution in the

treatment of Teeth

STEP BY STEP THE science of medicine advances. The clearer the picture of human ailments becomes, the more logical the treatment. Instead of intricate remedies, science now advocates simple additions to the diet. To- day, most human ailments can be traced to some deficiency in the diet. A deficiency of calcium (lime) in the system, for instance, is the cause of such diverse ail- ments as weak sensitive teeth, rickets in children, skin troubles of many kinds. Irritable nerves, irregularities in the functions of womanhood, etc.

All these ailments may now be attacked in a logical, simple way by adding Kalzana tablets to the diet. Tooth decay, for instance. When your teeth are sensitive and not hard and white, they

simply show that your body does not contain enough calcium and no amount of cleaning will help you. Teeth are living parts of the body. They may be ill.

Take a few Kalzana tablets every day, then you are sure that your body gets the required Calcium in exactly the right combination. Kalzana has proved in thousands of cases that it will make teeth strong again by conquering the very cause of their weakness-- lack of Calcium in the body. I will make your teeth strong and healthy, they will become white again and decay will be stopped,

Start a course of Kalzana to-day, then you can both feel and see how your health improves. Remember that Kalzana is not a drug, bui an absolutely harmless lime-food.
