BREAKFAST. “By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the line 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 of 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 fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame." — See article in the “ Civil Service Gazette.” Made simply with boiling water or milk Sold in packets or tins, labelled; — JAMES EPPS & CO., HOMUiOTATmC CHEMISTS, London.
