The cocoa-bean contains an | alkaloid called " Theobromine," which is the principle ot the rt " cup that cheers, but does not inebriate. m The crreat point of difference between the stimulating pro- M pertie i ofakohol, and that of theobromine is, that the use of | L former causes a subsequent depression, which is propoi | tional to the amount of stimulation it has P™* OUBJyJW* 1 about; the use of the latter (theobromine) is attended by | such unpleasant after-effects.
