PUBLIC NOTICES. *jH| >|p' the best cocoa and that of Van Houten are '§%<, Hy synonymous terms. The cocoa manufactured g| by that well-known firm is a preparation from the very best 'm cocoa-beans, and contains all the valuable nutritive and stimu- |f lating properties natural to cocoa. The cocoa-bean contains an |f| alkaloid called " Theobromine," which is the principle of the M " cup that cheers, hut does not inebriate." \M ; The great point of difference between the stimulating pro- ||| perties of alcohol, and that of theobromine is, that the use of |a the former causes a subsequent depression, which is propor- M tional to the amount of stimulation it has previously brought M\ : about; the use of the latter (theobromine) is unattended by ||| such unpleasant after-effects. Of course, only a first-class p| cocoa, such as Van Houten's, will work in the aforesaid manner. j|| That cocoa has been described as "A triumph of science!" ||; It is quite pure, extremely soluble, and easy of assimilation and ||| digestion by the weakest r,tomach. It costs but a trifle, being p less than one farthing per cup; and it is the simplest drink to M make ready, of the whole catalogue of possible beverages. It m smells so good, and tastes no delicious, that when you try it you M will certainly exclaim: "At I indeed, it is a triumph of science I" m . _ jjSjjgj BE SU.3E YOU TRY || VAN HOUTEN'S Eating CHOCOLATE. | |j January 10th, 1900.
