Should Women dread the approach of a perfectly natural event?

"ATURE never intended you to suffer unduly. Why is it then that so many thousands of women experience such pain, and weakness,

Simply because there is a shortage of vital minerals in the body.

That is the reply, supported by the best medical opinion. Calcium is the vital food of every body cell, and any shorrage hinders -the correct performance of all bodily functions,

particularly those of women.

The use" of Kalzana, the mineral food, for a few weeks provides the whole system with the indispensable minerals needed to establish that care-free, vigorous health that Nature intended you to enjoy.

But it must be Kalzana, as only in this scientific form (a combination of sodium- lactate and calcium-lactate) will the mineral salts be taken up and retained by your body. "Lose your dread-re-establish the functions on a normal basis by starting a course of Kalzana to-day..

Are you a "perseverator"? If so, the Industrial Health Research Board will be interested in your $8.36.

Perseveration, it is explained in the Board's annual report, issued recently. "Is the term used by psychologists to denote the con- Anuance of the effects of past ex- i perience at any level in the nervous systern, with particular reference to the obstruction of present activities which may be traced to the influence of past activity of some kind.".

A familiar instance, was afforded by the man who continued to put his foot on the accelerator, in- stead of the brake, because in his last car the brake was in the position now occupied by the ac- celerator in the new model of car which he had bought.

One of the Board's investigators has begun a research into per- severation which, says the report is of particular interest to applied psychology in industry, and has been shown to be indicative of many peculiarities of temperament and

character whose diagnosis must be important in vocational guidance and selection.

PHYSICAL FITNESS

The effects of the mechanisation of workshops and shorter hours are: becoming as important psycholó- gically as physically state the Board.

"As regards both physical fitness and mental health, it may be per- missible to speculate on the erects which modern industrial conditions may tend to have on the physique and muscle of the worker and on his mental attitude If initiative be not encouraged and attention paid to the proper use of leisure time for physical and mental cluture. Creative effort is essential if the best is to be got out of any man."

The Board feel that it would be "more than rash" to suggest that there is any cause for suspecting any progressive deterioration in the physique of the industrial worker generally, but they consider more investigation to be necessary, and would welcome any opportunity of promoting further research in the subject
