"I have examin- ed many so- called difficult and cross chil- dren and could prove that in most instances the children suf fered from lack of calcium in the body,"

writes a well-known specialist.

In the "Strand Magazine" of March 1933, the well-known food expert, Miss Kathleen Dane, writes:

44

Many children of the irritable, nervous type, owe their state to a deficiency of organic salts, particularly calcium, notwithstanding the fact that the dietary appears to be properly balanced. Such youngsters do well when the diet is reinforced by a well-retained mineral food, such as Kalzand," which medical men all over the country are now recommending."

Your quickly-growing child needs extra calcium to help. the formation of straight bones," healthy teeth, and a strong constitution. Start your boy or girl on a course of Kalzana-you will be surprised at the all-around improve- ment Kalzana effects. Irritability disappears, appetite returns and soon the formerly" difficult" child will be happy, healthy youngster again.
