FACHE Cromwell:— Mr. JAS. MARSHALL A "row;— M'DOUGAL & SMITH THE GUM LEAF CURE. Eucalypti Essence! JET lh.fi Public take notice of a few J facts put forward for their information in this intimation. They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in enlightening 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 spread its fame throughout the world, but there are many who do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the face of the Colony, contain about live hundred million gallons nf pure volatile oil, that is the mortal foe of fever and ague. Every day in the year the forests of the colony are giving out and exhaling in the form of vapour, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to our people. This fact is now recognised by all scientists in the world Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the inventors of discoveries of remedial agents to claim something little short of infallibility and universahility of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and Sous did nothing of the sort. They have conlidonco that their essence possesses many virtues ; hut the full extent of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, an 1 they are must <areful and searching in performing this. It is quite sure then, that tli ir euca ypti esr-ence can fairly asset itself to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that tlesli is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the p dm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will bo noticed for a h-iigth of time. Inwardly used, take three or four drops in half a t.umh cr of water. The essence ..fleets a in..si suvpiisiii: change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and crcat ing a lioul.hv appetite. For Chi ’lren Attending Schools, the same mode may he adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, oeing an etheric essence, evaporate, and li 11 the room with the purifving vapor. Are you obliged to Travel! A few drops occa-ionally ruiibed on the body, will pro tecl against any contagion you may tie exposed to, in comingdiiect. wilh - id; persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. All Hotelkeepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers whop linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure es-eu-tia! essence. It produces no spots wlmtcve , as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing i. m-iiia In short, where a disinfectant is needed, the pur. .■s-encial eucalypti essence ought to be the one. you have r* course to, and no family ought to be without it For a’l If oeti Is. Outs, Burns. Scoldings, Fleers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped round the suffering part, and moisten, d with a few drops of the . uca'ypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a spec 'y cure. In eases where a piece of lin-n cannot he appind, the moistenin. of the suffering part with the pure essence will do us well In case of Colds, m. isten the nostrils with a few drops and inhale the vapour, an you will feel immediate relief, and entire riddance nf rhc. heat. In all cases where the Lungs may be Affected., 'he above-mentioned process, tonlinually repeated, will he the best that can he j advise! In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of th.- pure c's-uiial eucalypti essence wi'h three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any o'h r remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may he app’neo to the part affected. in severe cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may lie applied on the external par' of the face. I n cases oflllj!,, nimation of the Eyes, apply the pure, essence to the outside of the eyelids. Headache, and Rheumatic Pains in the Head arc positively cured and removed h\ rubbing the essence on the affected parts. For many cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the best remedy. £.V No other essence is genuine except that in the vials hearing on the labels our signature and trade mark Retail Agents : Henry Hotop, Chemist, Clyde. \Vm.
