Medical The Gum Leaf Cure. eucalyptFessence. • LET the Public take notice of a few facts put forward for their information in this intimulion. They mny ho worth their study, and repay peruaul in enlightening tbem upon a subject of practical utility. THE HISTORY OF THE ESSENCE'S DISCOVERY. The Australian anti-fever tree—that is the blue gxim, or eucalyptus glohuhis —has now j spread its fame throughout the world, hut there are many who do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. It has been estimated tliat the Australian blue gums, which stud the face of the colony, contain about five hundred million gallons of 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 vapor, 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 *orld. 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 r 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 assert itself- to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that flesh is heir to.

In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any cane of Fever, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapor*, or" sprinkled over the clotheß. The perfume will be noticed for a great length of time. ; Inwar%ly 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 SchooU, the same mode may be adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an etheric 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 sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by tick persons.

: All Botelkeepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers, where linen is -usually kept, a few drops of the pure essential 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 eeualypfi essence ought to be ibe one you have recourse to, and no family ought to be without it.

For all Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped round the suffering part, and moistened with a fsw 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 with a few drops and inhale the vapour, and you will feel the immediate relief, and entire riddance of the heat.

In' all cases where the Lungs may he Affected, the above-mentioned process, con. tinually repeated, will be the best that can be advised.

In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence witKthree parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, bas acted better than, any other remedy. In all cases of'lnflammation, 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 theMyes, apply the pure essence to the outside of the eyelids. Headache and Rheumatic Pains in the Head are positively cured and removed by rubbing the cfience on the effected parts. : For many Cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the beat remedy. (ST^o other essence is genuine except that in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark. To bo hud at: the manufactory, SANDER AND SONS, Bridge street, Sandhurst, Vie toria.
