EPPS'SCOCOA . GBATEFUL AND COMFORTING . 11 By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition , and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected Cocoa , Mr . Epps has provided our 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 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 . " —Glvil Service Gazette . JAMES EPPS & CO ., Homoeopathic Chemists .
