Medical The Gum Leaf Cure. EUCALYPTI JISSENCfi. LET the Public Inko notice of a few facts put forward for their information in this uitiinction. 'They may ho worth their study, uud repay perusal in enlightening them upon a subject of pruol ical utility. THE HISTORY OF THE ESSENCE'S DISCOVERY. The Außtrulian anti-fever tree—thot is the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus—h&B now spread it s fame throughout, the world, but there are many who do not properly estimate its eplendid qualities. It has been estimated tliiit the Australian blue gum*, 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 nromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to our people. This fact ib 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 xnest careful and searching in performing this. It is.quite sure then, that their eucalypti essence can fairly assert itsel&to be a grand panacea for many of the ilia that flesh is heir to. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any caxe of Fever, nothing 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 vapors, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a great length of time. . Inwardly used, fake 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 bo adopted. ■ In Cases of Sicknas, 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, j in coming direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by tick persons. All KotelJceepers will do well to sprinkle from timd to lime 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 fPbunds, Cuts, Burns, 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 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, continually repeated, will be the best that can be advised. In cases of Sheumatism, a mixture oi one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence with three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any other remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may be applied to the park affected. In severe cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may bo applied on the external part of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the J7yes,,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 eeience on the effected parts. For many Cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the best jremedy. <§f°No other essence is genuine except that in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark.
