GRATEFCTL COMFORTING EPPS’S COCOA. BREAKFAST. 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 doctor’s 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 ten pency to disease. Hundreds of subtl maladias are floating around us ready i/ attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pur blood and a properly nourished frame.— See article in the Civil Service Gazette. Made simply with boiling water or milk Sold only in packets, labelled : JAMS? EPPS AND CO., HOMQsXSuCATHIC CHEMIST, LONDON. ALSO, EPPS CHOCOLATE ESSENCE FOR AFTERNOON U JQR HEILBRON’S WORM CAKES. These Cakes are principally prepared from Herbs, and do not contain any dangerously active ingredients. They have a wonderful effect in curing children, as well as grown persons, by removing the worms. They have been with grea success introduey into the principal families in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. They are guaranteed to do away, in a very short time, with many serious complaints like Bronchitis, Piles, Ulcers, Ulcerated Throats, etc., if taken in time, as these sicknesses are often caused by worms of all kinds, especiolly by the Tape Worm, and by the taost dangerous Thread Worm, which, if not destroyed in time, will soon create the nardly-curable Worm Fever. The smallest, the Thread Worm, will more than any other worm penetrate through all the crevices of the body up to the brain. An example was recently witnessed, where a child falling continually into fits (the parents not knowing the cause) at last died with the brain affected by the too fatal Thread Worm. Still more recently there was a case, a grown man whose seat wai affected by the Thread Worm, and who, after trying many sorts of remedies, without effect was directly relieved by a dose of DR HEILBRON’S Worm Cakes. There are cases where the worms come away that they almost can be counted ; then often they come away in whole clots, and sometimes in a thick and slimy stuff, and although not so perceptible, still they are caused to leave by Dr Heilbron’s Worm Cakes. And there have been other cases where children affected with Worms, when coughing or sneezing, do discharge them through the mouth and nose. The symptoms of Worms are generally as follows ; —Lassitude, Giddiness, Depression of Spirits, Impaired Appetite (which if not acted against, will engender diseases of the bile), Disorder of the Stomach and Digestive Organs, Sick Headaches, Vomiting, Disturbed Sleep, and many more serious complaints, including Fits, of which last many persons have been cured by these Worm Cakes. No time should be lost in removing these Worms, else the consequence will be serious, as they will increase in size and quantity, and ultimately spread throughout the intestines. If Worms are neglected for a time they will do so much damage as to make it beyond human skill to restore and reorganise the system of digestive organs.

DIRECTIONS FOB USB. The quantity of these Worm Cakes to be taken at a dose depends mostly on the age and constitution of the patient. In most oases a couple of doses will drive the worms away for many years, if not entirely. As a standard : A dose for a child up to 2 years will be half a Cake ; from 2 to 4 years old, one whole Cake ; from 4 to 8 years, one Cake and a half; from Bto 14, two Cakes ; . and so to increase with the age, but never more than four Cakes at one dose. Grown females may generally take three Cakes at a dose, and grown men four Cakes, according to constitution. The most effective way of using these Worm Oakes is by taking the dose before going to bed, and on the following morning to. taka a cup of hot tea before breakfast. As I am not certain how long 1 may stay in this town, and as these Worm Cakes can be obtained at a very small expense families will do well to have always a small supply of them at their houses.
