They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in en lightening them upon a subject of practical utility. The History of the Essence's Discovery. The Australian anti-fever tree- that is* the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus— has now spreail its fame throughout the world, but there are many who do not properly e--tima'e its splendid qualities. It lias been estimated that the Australian blue gums, whit hj stud the face of the Colony, contain 1 about live linn ;red million gallons of pure volati e oil, that is the mortal f. e of fever and ague. Every day iu the year the forests of the colony are civ ng out and exhaling in the form of vapour, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-, iving essence to our people. This fact is now recognised by all scienti ts in the world Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the invent' is of discoveries of it medial agents to claim something little short ol infallibi iiy and uiiiversahihty of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Hander and Sons did nothing of tire sort. Tin y Lave confidence that their essence possesses many virtue- ; hut the full extent of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, ami they are most careful and searching in perfoiiniug this. It is quite sure then, th it th ir eucalypti essence can fairly as.-erc itself to l-e a grand panacea for many of the ills that tlc li is heir to. ■ In Scare!, Typhoid, or any case o/ Fever, nothing wnl protv c betteragainst contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or sp:inkled over the chillies. The peifumc will be notice'! for a length of time Inwardly Used, take three or four drops in half a tunih or of water. The essence vfleets a most snrprisiiic change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creat ing a heal hv appetite. Fur l'hi i lren Attending Schools, the same mode may be adopted. In Crises of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into tbc room will, ' eing an etheric essence, evaporate, and H 1 the room with ill- pnrifving vapor. Are you obliged to Travel! A few drops occauunally rubbed on the body, will pin teet against any contagion you may he ex posed to, in coining di ecf wi;h sick per-ons, or in stee: in. in ihe same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. A‘l Hole keepers will dowel 1 1 sprinkle from time to nine in diawers where linen is usually kept, a tew drops of the pure es entiai essence. It product sno snots whateve , as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing remains In short, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure i s-en'ial euca ypti essence ought to be the one you have i\course to, and no family on lit to be without it.
