J A TRIUMPH OF SCIENCE. J ■ Reader, do you know what real cocoa is ? To economical @9 H housewives, and wide-awake people generally, the best H B cocoa and that of Van Houien are synonymous terms. H B The cocoa manufactured by that well-known firm is a B B preparation from the very best cocoa-beans, and contains all V B the valuable nutritive and stimulating properties natural H B to cocoa. Tbe cocoa-bean contains an alkaloid called nl ■ "Theobromine," which is the principle of the B ____^^b " cn P th<*t cheers, but does not inebriate" ___P_________J__l «Mo^feß The great point of difference between the stimulating _^^_____^K properties of alcohol, and that of theobromine is, that the aSL^flfi use of the former causes a subsequent depression, wbich is fffc^W^M ■ JU' proportional to the amount of stimulation it hns previously w 9 ■ m W brought about; the use of the latter (theobromine) is IS B unattended by such unpleasant after-effects. Of course, & Bl only a first-class cocoa, such as Van Houten's, will work X/ W| in the aforesaid manner. Th.:t cocoa has been described as m U "A triumph of science!" It is quite pure, extremely flf V soluble, and easy of assimilation and digestion by the ffl ■ weakest stomach. It costs but a trifle, being less than one _M ■ farthing per cup ; and it is the simplest drink to make ready, H B of the whole catalogue of possible beverages. It smells so ffl B good, ;n I tastes so delicious, that when you try it you will 9 B certainly exclaim : " Ah ! indeed, it is a triumph of science !"
