GOLD MEDAL, PARIS, 1878.

BAKER'S

Breakfast Cocoa.


[Illustration]

Warranted =absolutely _pure Cocoa_=, from which the excess of Oil
has been removed. It has _three times the strength_ of Cocoa mixed
with Starch, Arrowroot or Sugar, and is therefore far more economical,
_costing less than one cent a cup_. It is delicious, nourishing,
strengthening, easily digested, and admirably adapted for invalids as
well as for persons in health.

BAKER'S

Vanilla Chocolate,


[Illustration]

Like all our chocolates, is prepared with the greatest care, and
consists of a superior quality of cocoa and sugar, flavored with pure
vanilla bean. Served as a drink, or eaten dry as confectionery, it is a
delicious article, and is highly recommended by tourists.
