I SOCIAL NEEDS. \ Whatever questions of Social Needs may exist, and how- I ever much we may rack our brains to discover satisfactory m solutions of them, there is at least one — and certainly not .the M M® least important — province, in which the solution has been M §& found. For is not the question "What is our best daily ■ UM beverage?" of importance to all classes of society? And is ■ ||a any other answer to that question possible, from disinterested B jM persons, than "Van Houten's Cocoa"? It is more wholesome M W& than any other drink, it is nourishing and easy to digest; M lm refreshing, without acting injuriously on the nervous system, V ll| in the way that Tea, Coffee, and other drinks do; and its ■ |a delicious flavor in no way palls on the taste after continually fl |H using the cocoa. As regards its price, it is, as thousands can S sa testify from practical experience, not at all dear to use. B HI What a pity all social questions cannot be answered as ■H easily as the above one; but their answers require a great deal H jgf of thinking about. Those who arc busy thinking about them, H « cannot do better than take a cup of Van Houten's Cocoa ■ fi| daily, as for helping the brain-worker it is without equal. B H BE SURE YOU TRY | .
