"Cacao. coca, coco and cocoa are
words that mean entirely different
things" said chemist They are in
Interchangeable. as curacao and curacao
are.
"Cacao is chocolate. 1t is the prod
uct of the chocolate berry tree. This
tree. which is thirty feet high, bears an
egg shaped pod. The seeds inside the
pod are roasted and husked. They are
ground into a paste and sweetened and
favored. This paste Is cacao, or choc-
olate 1t may be eaten or drunk.
Coca is a shrub whose leaves give
us the stimulating drug, cocaine. Coca
leaves have for centuries been fed to
horses and cattle in their fodder. An
extraordinary stimulation is the re-
suit. A traveller, chewing a few coca
leaves, can more than double his pow
ers of endurance.
Coco is a kind of sweet potato--a
plant with an edible root.
Cocoa is the cocoanut palm, which
yields up the familiar cocoanut.

chocolate cocoa, Is altogether wrong"

to talk literature"
