Medical The Gum Leaf Cure. EUCALYPTI ESSENCE. LET the Public take notice of a few facts put forward for their information in this intimation. Thoy 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 five 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 vapor, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to our people. This fact i» 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 tbe full extent of these they do not know yet. They ore 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 case of Fever, j no'bing will protect betlier against contagion than n few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a 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 tbe whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creating a healthy appetite For Children Attending Schools, 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 persona. All Hotelkeepers 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''ecualypti essence ought to be the one you have recourse to, and no family ought to be without it. For all Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wound*, a piece of linen wrapped round the suffering part, and moistened with a few drops of the eucalypti i 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 beafe. •> 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 ot one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence with three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in tlie suffering part, has acted better than any other remedy. : In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may be applied to the part affected. In severe cases of Tooiliache of rheumatic origin, tho pure essence may bo applied on the external part of the face. : Up cases of Inflammation ofihe JEyes, apply i the pure essence to tbe outride of the pyelids. Headache and S7iemnati(r Pains in the Head are positively cured and removed by rubbing the e?sence on the effected parts. ■ For many Cases of Severe Bruises the., essence has proved'the'best remedy.' -■'■•• flgjTNo other essence is genuine except thut in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark., - To be bad at the manufactory, SANDER AND SONS, Bridge street, Sandhurst, Vie toria. - Sold in Vials only at Is 6d and 2s 6d each.
