Cacao Nibs. — Put a gill of the cacao nibs in a pot with two quarts water, and boil gently^ one and a half to two hours. There snould be a quart of liquid in the pot when done. If the boiling has been so rapid that there is not this quantity, add more water, and let it boil once again. Many people prefer half broken cacao nibs and half shell. If the stomach is delicate, this is better than all nibs. Sugar and cream
