FOOTBALL.

Stars y. Brunne-’. After a long visit of rainy weather, a large number turned out in Saturday’s ideal weather to witness the above match, which was won by the Stars in a very decisive manner by ten points to three.

From the kick-off, it was at once apparent that if victory was to rest with Brunner something out of the ordinary was in store for the spectators as from the very first scrum the Star front rankers—Corcoran and M'Carthy—sent the ball clear through to M'Kechnie, who in turn transferred to Sweetman, and after a smart sprint by the latterly safely passed to McCarthy, who in return by a pretty piece of play again transferred to N. White, and after a smart dodgy run in which his defending and bumping powers were seen to advantage, the latter was pushed into touch in Brunner territory. Time after time the Star backs showed brilliant combination, and on one occasion after being heeled out from a scrum, the ball was passed to four different players with as many passes, the outcome being a magnificent pot by MTherson.

A very noticeable feature o| Star play was the manner in which one of their men would be backed up by the entire team as soon as he obtained possession of the oval, whilst the smallest player in the team (Hall) was rewarded by hie continous following up by scoring a wellmerited try, whilst E. White just before close of play' scored handsomely almost under the post. Brunner played a plucky defensive game, but entirely lacked the combination and condition of the victors. However they should render a far better account of themselves ere the season ends. Smith was far away the pick of their backs, whilst the result may have been different had all the visitors followed up as judiciously as Tomkies. For Stars, Connor at full played well at times, but a full back should never on any account resort to speculators at a rolling ball. It would be invidious to name any of the remaining Stars backs as out-shining the other, but M'Carthy must be congratulated on his coolness and generalship. The forwards are a fine pack, in fact their front rankers are superior to any similar players we have witnessed so far in senior matches, whilst Eichardson, Chapman and the White Brothers were ever conspicuous.

Mr Conway as referee had by no means a pleasant task, but, although he missed seeing one or two breaches, yet wielded the whistle in a manner which is calculated to raise the game to a higher standing.

It is proved by tests made by the Medioal Clinics of the Universities of Bonn and Gnefswald (Prussia), and reported toby Dr Schultz Professor of Pharmacology at Bonn, and Professor Dr Mossier, Director of the Medical Clines at Griefswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of acids resinous and other substances adherent to primary distillation, will develop the sanative qualifies proper to the plant. All crude oils or so-called Eucalypti Extracts, are to be classed according to' the named authoriti is, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an internal medicament. TL ese crpde oil, or so-called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible: 1. By their deficiency in pungent odor (which onr product, the only genuine Euca lypti Extract, develops most freely throrgn ■ts surplus oxygen.) ' 2. By their alcoholic, thin, and mobile appearance, being reduced to specific density through the presence o£ acids. 3. By their taste, the result of contract ing tendency of resins and tanats. if those oi-ude oils, or so-called Eucalypti Extracts, are applied by mistake in eases of croup, bronchitis, diptheria, internal inflammation, dysentry, etc., the consequences are most appalling.
