THE SECRET OF ITS SUCCESS. There is no doubt we live in an age of worry and excitement, and as the struggle for existence is anything but conducive to good digestion or an appetite that can relish anything, the palate of the average work-a-day individual has to be tickled and tempted in a variety of ways. "We are often lectured about the evil eftects of an over indulgence in tea or coffee, not to mention intoxicating liquors, until many people are bewildered what to turn to for a beverage, which shall be a tonic agreeable to the taste, and supply the desired nourishing and stimulating qualities. Public attentio has been freely drawn to the merits of Dr Tibbies' Vi Cocoa, as supplying a long felt want in this direction. It is not simply a cocoa, but a preparation of two or three other ingredients, which give it great nutritive and invigorating qualities. It is, therefore, not merely a pleasant beverage, but a food and a tonic in the bargain. Its success has certainly been phenomenal, and that is perhaps the best warranty for the claim made on its behalf, that Vi-Cocoa ' has the refreshing properties of fine tea, the nourishment of the best cocoas, a tonic and recuperative force possessed by neither, and can be used in all cases where tea and coffee are prohibited.' Dr Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa is neither a medicine nor a mere thirst-assuager. It is a food at the same time that it is a beverage, and thus answers a double purpose in the building up of the human constitution, and must render it highly serviceable to everybody, especially the workers in mills and shops of various kinds among whom tea has hitherto been so excessively drunk ; while it has the further advantage apparently of being easily digested and of agreeing with the most delicate stomach. Dr Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa in B£d packets and Is Id and 2s 2d tins can be obtained from all chemists, grocers and stores, from Dr Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa, Limited, 269 George St. Sydney. As a test of its merit, a dainty sample tin of Dr Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa will be sent free on application to any address, it when writing (a postcard will do), the reader will name the Clutha Leader. A !S T apier parent has taken his child from school, where she was only in the *irst standard, although 11 years of age. He informed the truant officer that what further 'scholaring' the girl required he would give her at home, and wrote a letter to the headmaster, of which the following is ft verbatim copy : * 5/22/99 to the Hed master Df?r ser, i dont think i shall bee abell to send — aney more. Pleas to give — (her sister) her books and wat belongs to her and i must dow wat i can at horn.'
