PEOPLE YOU KNOW.

No. V.-THE DOCTOR. Dr. T. H. Smith, Royal Colonial Insiitulo, writes:— liava much pleasuro in testifying to tho superior qualities of your Vi-Cocoa over any similar preparation in the market. I do this willingly and unsolicited as I consider it a great boon to the public. I have personally experimented with the cocoas in the market, and find that tho great drawback to all of them was the slow process of digestion and assimilation. The diastase in tho Malt not only assists digestion in your Vi-Cocoa, but it also accelerates the digostion of other foods that are taken with tho Vi-Cocoa. This I have personally tested, and can thereforo speak from actual experience. Its wonderful recuperative power after exhaustion from fatigue is marvellous." No article of consumption has ever equalled tho speedy popularity of Dr. Tibbies' ViCocoa. We should think there are remarkably few houses, if any, where it is not now in use. Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa has positivoly popularised cocoa as a beverage; many poopla who never could make a habit of cocoa drinking, and only took a cup on a rare occasion, are now regular drinkers of Vi-Cocoa.
