careful application of the fine properties of well-selected 
Cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our Breakfast tables with a 
delicately flavored beverage which may save us many hea vy 
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 around us, ready to attack wherever 
there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by 
keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly 
nourished frame.”— Civil Service Gazette. Mad£ simply with
