J. BADHAM, Hereford st., Christchurch. UIS Reader, do you know wbat real cocoa is ?To economical bouse- w j^| wives, and wide-awake people generally, .the best cocoa and that of Van .Ha ||§ ' Houten are synonymous terms. The cocoa manufactured by that well- pM Ws. ' known firm is a preparation from the very best cocoa-beans, and contains £§' Wi all the valuable nutritive and stimulating; properties natural to cocoa. mil ||f The cocoa-beau contains an alkaloid called " Theobromine," which is Jpgj H " cup that cheers, but does not inebriate." _ |JM * I The great point of difference between the stimulating properties of I§|| i alcohol, and that of theobromine is, that the use of the former causes a E||| I subsequent depression, which is proportional to the amount of stimulation l!\f| I it has previously brought about ; the use of the latter (theobromine) is Ira I \ unattended by such unpleasant after effects. Of course, only a first-class Spf 111 cocoa, such as Van Houten's, will work in the aforesaid manner. That fiJgs ! |||| cocoa has been described as " A triumph of science ! " It is quite pure, |||j Wm extremely soluble, and easy of assimilation and digestion by the weakest jpi iHi stomach. It costs but a trifle, being less than one farthing per cup ; and uM plf it is the simplest drink to make ready, of the whole catalogue of possible ||b| ima beverages. It smells so good, and tastes so delicious, that when you try Wm ||il it you will certainly exclaim : "Ah ! indeed, it is a triumph of science ! " |§|| B HAVE YOU TRIED S m.
