COCA GROG.—By mixing a wineglassful of _Vin Mariani_ with half a glassful of boiling water, sweetened to the taste, we get a grog of exquisite flavor, and capable of rendering the greatest services whenever an immediate effect is desired in severe cases of cold, attended by convulsive coughing. (As prescribed by Dr. Libermann, Dr. Cyrus Edson and others, recorded in the medical journals during the grip epidemics.) ELIXIR MARIANI. The _Elixir Mariani_ is more alcoholic, very agreeable to the taste, and three times as highly charged with the aromatic principles of the Coca leaf as the _Vin Mariani_; therefore it should be taken in doses of a liqueur glassful, in the morning upon rising, and after the two principal meals. It may be used clear or mixed with water, in nearly all cases where the _Vin Mariani_ is used. Its tonic and eminently digestive properties and its special aroma, at once mild and penetrating, make it an agreeable liqueur, very much esteemed by gourmets and persons who are careful about their health. A small glass of the _Elixir Mariani_ taken after a meal, spreads a gentle warmth through the stomach and calls forth an abundant secretion of gastric juice, which mixes with the food and facilitates digestion. For travelers, hunters, and in general all who walk much and who are exposed to fatigue, to dampness, and to fog, the use of the _Elixir Mariani_ may be recommended and will render admirable service, because of the tone and strength that it gives to the stomach and to the muscles. Dr. Collins, _Révue de Thérapeutique_, observes that this liqueur acts "heroically" in anæmia, chlorosis and rickets. Dr. Ch. Fauvel, Dr. Conqueret, Dr. Villeneuve, Dr. Chapusot, Dr. Odin, Dr. Cintrat and others declare as the result of their clinical observations that the _Elixir Mariani_ exerts a "masterly action" in granular pharyngitis, quinsy, and albuminuria, and that its stimulating properties on the whole nervous system cannot be denied. Dr. J. Leonard Corning, of New York, recommends the _Elixir Mariani_ as a strengthener of the brain. "As a remedy in _sea-sickness_, the _Elixir Mariani_ has always given excellent results."—Dr. Slant, Dr. Letellier, Dr. Trossat, Dr. Derrecagaix. The _Elixir Mariani_ is generally prescribed in doses of a liqueur-glassful after the principal meals. Mixed with cold water, in the proportion of two liqueur-glassfuls to a tumbler of water, it constitutes a very strengthening and pleasant drink. PÂTE MARIANI (LOZENGES OF COCA).
