Manufacturers by Special Appointment to the Queen.

Liebig, the celebrated Chemist, asserts that Nitrogen is essential to the healthy ction of the bile, and the growth, sustenance, and invigoration of the body. No tronger recommendation of Cocoa and Chocolate can therefore be given than he following statement.-Caffeine and Theine, (the essential properties of Coffee nd Tea), each contain only about 29 per cent, whilst Theobromine (the essential property of Cocoa and Chocolate), contains upwards of 35 per cent of Nitrogen. The beneficial effects of the Nitrogenous principle will be fully experienced by the ase of our various preparations of Chocolate and Cocoa, in which its invigorating properties are carefully preserved.

J. S. FRY & SONS

call the especial attention of the Public to their

Homœopathic Cocoa

an article of great purity, prepared with much care, and combining the qualities which are sought for, both by Homoeopathic Patients and by consumers generally. Its delicacy of flavour, perfect solubility, and highly nutritious properties, have rendered it a standard article of extensive consumption.

[ocr errors]

It is sold in 1 lb., lb., and lb. packets, with directions for use, by Tea Dealers, Grocers, and Druggists, in the principal towns of the United Kingdom, and in many of the Colonies, and Wholesale by the Manufacturers, at their Establishments in

BRISTOL AND LONDON.

FRYS' CHOCOLATE DROPS, CHOCOLAT DE VOYAGE, and other BON BONS, are strongly recommended as delicious and nutritious condiments for the railway carriage, the nursery, the invalid chamber, or the luncheon table. These French Chocolates are particularly adapted for presents.

It is well known by the Public that we have manufactured Chocolates and Cocoas in great variety, for a long series of years. The great attention bestowed by us on these preparations has been fully appreciated; and we take the present opportunity gratefully to thank the ROYAL FAMILY and those NOBLEMEN, gentlemen, ladies, and the Public, who have patronized our various articles.

This success has arisen from our constant care to manufacture every variety best of its kind.

From the year 1728, when our manufactory was established, until 1822, CHURCHMAN'S PATENT and other CAKE CHOCOLATES, and FRY'S PATENT COCOA, were chiefly used.

FRY'S CHOCOLATE POWDER, CHOCOLATE or CocoA PASTE, SOLUBLE CHOCOLATE and BROMA, all of which are soluble by the addition of boiling water. and require neither boiling nor milling, have subsequently been much used.

These elegant preparations have invariably maintained the same high character for superiority of quality and fineness of flavor, which our CA CHOCOLATES and PATENT COCOA have ever possessed.

FRY AND SONS' GRANULATED and DIETETIC COCOAs which are both equally soluble, have of late years been favourites with the public; they are light, nutritious, and delicate articles-to Invalids invaluable.

Our SOLUBLE COCOA has also obtained very extensive consumption, its moderate price rendering it attainable by all classes for every day use, thus enabling even the labouring man to enjoy the delicious fruit of the Theobroma Cacao, which for many years was regarded as an article of luxury. This Cocoa in Green and Gold or in hexagon packets, will be found of excellent quality.

J. S. FRY & SONS' name on the label of their CocoA NIBS, will warrant them perfectly genuine. The quality will be found very superior.

We offer to the Public several varieties of FRENCH CHOCOLATES, prepared according to principles, alike dictated by our ample experience and the results of the most refined taste, carried out with great care and skill in their manufacture. We confidently recommend these Chocolates as eminently combining that rich ness and delicacy of flavour, with that peculiar softness on the palate, which is rarely to be met with; together with those remarkably salubrious qualities which are essential to Chocolate in all its forms.

CHOCOLATE of our manufacture is free from all noxious ingre dients; the inferior portions of the nut are carefully excluded, and it contains in the most concentrated and agreeable form, all the virtues which are so justly attributed to the pure vegetable product of the Cocoa Tree, and is a fine Stomachic, producing a healthy action of the biliary secretions. So well are our Parisian neighbours aware of these facts, that CHOCOLATE is with them a leading article of consumption. To taste this delicious beverage in perfection, it is only needful to buy our Chocolat à la Française, attend to the directions enclosed in each package, and obtain our improved pot, manufactured by Barber and Groom, Union Court, Holborn Hill, London, which may be ordered of any Grocer or Ironmonger.

FRY AND SONS' Pearl Soluble Cocoa, in lb. packets, and

FRY AND SONS' Soluble Chocolate, in Powder, are both very superior and carefully prepared articles.
