A care-free HAPPY

GOOD HEALTH
"My whole family has benefited so much by the use of Kalzana that I only wish more would give it a trial,"
writes Mrs. U., London,
Mineral starvation is the cause of many troubles: children are often pale, Irritable and handicapped by a slow development of bones and weak teeth; women suffer from irregular periods, pains and headaches; men are dizzy and tired after a hard day's work.
Kalzana the mineral food for better health- supplies the necessary, minerals to the cells of the muscles, blood, and nerves. By doing so, it strengthens the whole organism, and increases its power of resistance in cases of illness and weakness. Good health is the best guarantee of happiness for the whole family.
