BUSINESS NOTIOES. CAUTION. CAUTION. — Parents and Guardians in purchasing Sweets should be careful to see that they get a pure article, as those imported have been proved, by analysis, to contain adulterations of a very injurious nature. — Vide the following : Professor Black reports Professor Black a<rain upon 14 samples of im- reports upon 20 samples ported sweets purchased taken by Inspector Lumb by Mr Lumb from various from the Manufactory of confectioners in Dunedin Messrs R.

Dunedin University Laboratory. Class : Farinaceous Food. Manufactured by R. Hudson and Co., Dunedin. " This prepared Food contains in due proportions all the essentials of good nutritious food. The ratio of the nitrogenous or fleshforming constituents to the non- nitrogenous or heat-producing and respiratory ingredients being 1 to 5 "7, is such as is recognised by the highest authorities as very satisfactory. The inorganic Baits found in the ash are those which are always present in good wheat flour, and are necessary constituents of food. " The percentage of sugar is a little higher than is usually found in wheat flour. This, however, is no disadvantage, and is due, probably, to the process of manufacture. I consider that your mode of preparation gives t the advantage over unprepared flour of retaining its sweetness for a longer period, and resisting more effectually the deleterious influence of a damp climate. "On the whole, I can recommend your preparation as a very digestible, wholesome, and nutritious article of food ; these good qualities will doubtless secure for it a large demand among all classes of the community.

"By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operation of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected cocoa, Mr Epps has provided onr breakfast tables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctors' bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating round us ready to attack wherever there is a weak point.
