To economical house- i|| f wives, and wide-awake people generally, the best cocoa and that of Van l|jf Houten are synonymous terms. The cocoa manufactured by that well- J||| known firm is a preparation fiom the very best cocoa-beans, and contains Jgjf - all the valuable nutritive and stimulating properties natural to cocoa. lif The cocoa-bean contains an alkaloid called " Theobromine,'' which is l§f the principle of the m@[ " cup that cheers, but does ?iot inebriate?* fea || The great point of difference between the stimulating propeities of g%4 0. alcohol, and that of theobromine is. that the use of the former causes a las &$ subsequent depression, which is proportional to the amount of stimulation l||| ' fj§j . it has previously brought about : the use 1 of the latter (theobromine) is M 3 la unattended by such unpleasant aftereffect?. Of course, only a first-class jMI cocoa, such as Van Houten's, will work in the aforesaid manner. That isM :g|L cocoa has been described as "A. triumph of science !" It is quite pure, &j' fjm. extremely soluble, and easy of assimilation and digestion by the weakest OM ' stomach. It costs but a trifle, being less than one farthing per cup ; and / , i||f it is the simplest drink to make ready, of the whole catalogue of possible ||g[ beverages. It smells so good, and tastes so delicious, that when you try jj&| ' Ph ii you will certainly exclaim : "Ah ! indeed, it is a triumph of science 1 " jpj 'S HAVE YOU TRIED I H Wk jVAM HOUTEN'S Eating CHOCOLATE P j if AS SUPPLIED TO HER MAJESTY, j This dainty and delicate Table Salfc, which is used ao | ordinary sait v^ith food, contains the strengthening \ and constitution - building {Droperties which are \ wanting in white Bread, owing to the removal ] of the Bran. | It is, therefore, invaluable in the daily food of \ growing children, delicate mothers, and all brain ! workers. , | Xapier has been inquiring into tlio cosL of The Weslporl Coal Company's output for lesfcruetors, and has been informed that one last week amounted to 9186 tons, /rtitable to a town like Napier would cost A Sheffield lady has six sons now at the stot less than £4-000. front.
