ESSENCE OF COFFEE.

A BOUT Two years ago new discovery
1Awas made in Europe, consisting OF a
substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
Essence Of Coffee, which has gone INTO gen.
eral use with astonishing rapldity, not only
among the poorer classes, who at once DIS
pensed with the use of the celebrated Chick
ory Coffee, but is now in general use in the
wealihiest families and the first hotels, and
is highly recommended by The medical fac
uftY.
II is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
etables, and excels all similar preparatlo ons
that have ever been offered to the public,
either in this country or in Europe. It's su-
perior quality has already been attested 10 in
the cities by some of the most eminent phys
icians, and number of the most distinguish
ed of the clerey and other highly respectable
citizens. Coffee made from this essence ac-
cording TO the prescription obtains more
delicious and pleasant favor than The COM
mon store coffee, and is certainly more
wholesome, especially for persons in deli.
cate health, which will be admitted by eve
~ physician who will take the pains 10 Test
the nalule and properties of this essence.
One paper costing only 1913 cts., is equal
10 four pounds of store coffee, will be bright
and clear without the ap ,lcation of any
other ingredient 10 clarity or settle it. The
public are therefore invited to give this es-
sence at least trial before they condemn it
A respectable merchant of Luzerne coun-
ty in wiring of it says:
"My customers have been using of the
above Essence for some months past with
general satisfaction F.; and do not hesitate
10 recommend it TO the public.
