The introdnction nnd the common use
of the terms “coca” ami-“cocoa," ajtpli-
cable to medicinal substances, have liad
•lie effect of confusing people’s minds
■with regard40 the aource and prepara
tion, and, in some cases, creating a prej
udice against tine me of wholly different
substances—chocolate and cocoa. The
medicinal wines of cocoa and the pow
erful alkaloids and nerve stimulants, co
caine and hygrine. are prepared from
the leaves of erythroxylon coca, a shrub
indigenous to Peru and Bolivia, wholly
different to theobroma cacao, a small
but beautiful tree, which grows luxuri
antly both wild and cultivated in fhe
northern parts of South America, On-
- tral America. Mexico and the West In
dies, from the seeds of which chocolate
and cocoa, and (from the ml) cocoa oint
ment or “butter,” are prepared.
When the Spantardslirst ririted Mex
ico, fonr centuries ago, they found the
natives using chocolate-. It was infcno-
duced into Europe as early as aftid
has since lieen more or less extensively
used in every civilised eon airy. Uin-
mens waa so fond of it that he gave to
the tree from which it was obtained
the name «f Theobroma—food for the
gods. Chocolate and cocoa are only two
lorms of the same snbstance.
, HOW COCOA IS OUTAIXED.
The tree twice a year yields a crop of
reddish spongy fruit, shaped somewhat
like a cucumber. ^The ripe fruit Is-ing
collected at the decline of the moon, the
tree continues its jield for twenty or
thirty years. Each fruit or pod con-
stains from six to fifty beaus—usually
about twenty—and there arc* from ten
to twenty poumls of such l>eans from
each tree at each crop The Iteans are
astully about the size of large almonds.
They are frequently (from a confusion
of language) called indifferently “Iwans,”
••seeds,” “nuts.” “berries." and •‘fruits,"
but their character will be better imder-
•tood by regarding them as l>euns out-
tamwl within a pod. They an* gener
ally picked out and dried for exporta
tion.*
Besides the liesns the phlp contains a
srsamy and cordial juice, and by Kb-atu-
ing and pressing the lwans will yield
one-third of their weight of a kind of
bnttsr to which tbs richness of cocoa is

■ R. M. Mixson Agency,
The preparations of spcoa ami choco
late made in France are mow numerous
than usually mode in Enghuid or the
sited States: they comprise vanilla
chocolate, milk chocolate, chocolate bon
bons, chocolate papillotes, chocolate
crackers, chocolate pastilles, chocolate
with taraxacum or with sar*ai*arilla.
chocolate with tar—in short, there is no
end to the list: for once admit the prin
cipal of mixing cocoa with vegetable in
fusions or decoctions or eswem-e* and
the variety becomes interminable.
The French limit themselves to the
use of the word “chocolate,” derived
from the Mexican name of the plant
tchocolatl): they seldom speak of “cocoa.”
What are called “cocoa nibs” are the
beans roughly crushed. “Flake cocoa,"
‘also, is another name for the Wans when
crushed between rollers, but before any
thing else has been added to them. The
busk ot the seed after roasting con
tains a good deal of nutriment: indeed,
so do. the pods likewise, and all three are
more or lees jised in making cheap
cocoa.
The plant is certainly used in more
ways than coffee—drank as a thick decoc*
tion (made to somewhat resemble gruel),
made into various confections and pas
tries, eaten as bonbons, etc.—while a
poor decoction is drank in some places
by boiling the husks separated from the
beana
While chocolate and cocoa contain an
essentia) principle, theobromine, com
parable to caffeine and theine—fhe alka
loids of coffee and tea—it is much less
2>otent as a disturber of the nervous sys
tem: and chocolate and cocoa are pro
portionally more welcome as a beverage,
besides possessing specially nutritive
qualities, which render t|iem much
more sustaining than tea.—‘Dr. H. N.
JBell in Sanitarian.
