Medical The Gum Leaf Cure. EUCALYPTI ESSENCE. LET tho Public take notice of a few fuels > put forward for their information in this intiniution. They may bo 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 tho blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus—haa now spread its fumo throughout the world, but there are many who do not properly estimute its splendid qualities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the face of the colony, contain about fire hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, thut 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 vnpor, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to our people. This fact is now recognised by all the scientists in the world. ITS CLAIM AS A CURATIVE. - It has now become the fashion with the inventors or discoverers of remedial agents to claim something little short of infallibility and universality of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and. Sens did nothing of the sort; They have confidence that their essence possesses many virtues} but the full extent; of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, and they are most careful and searching in performing this. It is quite sure then, that their eucalypti essence can fairly aesert itself to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that flesh is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever, no'.hing will protect better against contagion than n few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapow, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for n great length of time. Inwardly used, take three or four drops in half a tumbler of water. The essence effects a most surprising change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creating a healthy appetite. For Children Attending Schools, the same mode may be adopted. 1 In Pases of Sickness, a few drops put .into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an etberio essence,' evaporate, and fill the room with the purifying vapor. Are you obliged to Travel! A few drops occasionally rubbed on the body, will protect against any contagion you may be exposed to, in coming direct with sick persons, or in Bleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by tick persons. All SoUlheepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers, where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure essonfcial essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing remains. . In short, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure essential ecualypti essence ought to be tho one you have recourse to, and no family ought to be without it. $For all (Founds, Cuts, JBurns, Scaldings, [Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped round the suffering part, and moistened with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen cannot be applied, the moistening of the suffering part with the pure essence will do as well. In Case of Colds moisten the nostrils wilh a few drops and iuhale the vapour, and you will feel the immediate relief, and entire riddance of the beat. • .v In all cases where the Lungs may be Affected, the above-mentioned process, continually repeated, will be the best that can be advised. - ' In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of tho pure essential eucalypti essence with three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, baa acted better than any other remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may be applied to the part affected. In severe cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may be applied on the external part of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the Eyes, apply the puro essence to the outbido of the tyelids. Headache and Rheumatic Pains in the Head ore positively cured and removed by rubbing the essence on the effected parts. For many Cases of Severe Bmises the essence lias proved the best remedy. (gTNo other essence is genuine except that in the viala bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark. To bo hud at the* manufactory, SAJSDER AND SONS, Bridge street, Sandhurst, Victoria.
