PEOPLE YOLJ KNOW.

No. V.—THE DOCTOR.

Dr T. H. Smith, Royal Colonial Institute, writes: "I have much pleasure in testifying to the superior qualities of yotir Vi-Oocoa 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 the great drawback^ all of them was the slow process of digestion and assimilation. The diastase in the Malt ,not only assists digestion in your Vi-Cocoa, but it also accelerates the digestion of other foods that are taken with the Vi-Cocoa. This I have personally tested, and can therefore speak from actual experience. Its wonderful recuperative power after exhaustion from fatigue is marvellous." No article of consumption has ever equalled the speedy popularity of Dr Tibbles's "ViCocoa. We should think there are remarkably few houses, if any, where it is not now in use. Dr Tibbles's Vi-Cocoa has positively popularised cocoa as a beverage; many people 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. This is unquestionably a, .benefit from a public . health point of view; as tea, however, refreshing and beneficial when taken in moderation, has baneful effects when used excessively, as had too long been common. The proj gress of Dr Tibbles's Vi- Cocoa has been quite phenomenal all over the country. It has been a steady and rapid advance, showing that people after getting it once wanted it regularly. Its praises are sounded on every hand, and tradesmen- unanimously testify to its growing sales, and the continual demand for the wonderful food beverage, which form, even to the veriest sceptics, convincing x^ods of the hold it has taken in public farour. Dr Tibbles's Vi-Cocoa, in Bjd packets Mid Is Id and 2s 2d tins, can be obtained from all Chemists, Grocers, and Stores, or from Dr Tibbles's Vi-Cocoa (Limited), 269 Georgo street, Sydney. . . / As an unparalleled test of merit, a dainty sample tin of Dr Tibbles's Vi-Cocoa will be sent free on application to any address, if when writing ( a postcard will do) the reader will name the Otago Daily Times.
