          DECISION ON APPEAL                                                          
               This is a decision on an appeal from the primary examiner’s            
          final rejection of claims 1, 23, 47 and 64 through 91, which are            
          the only claims remaining in this application.  We have                     
          jurisdiction pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 134.                                   
               According to appellant, the invention is directed to a                 
          calcium supplement that comprises a primary calcium source of               
          calcium carbonate, a sufficient amount of a secondary calcium               
          source to provide from 0% to 30% of the supplement’s total
