Medical The Gum Leaf Cure. EUCALYP'II ESSENCE. LET tho Public ttiko notice of a few facts put forward for their information in tbiß intimation. 'Ihiy 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 Bplendid qualities. It lias been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud tho face of the colony, oontain about five hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that ia the mortal foe of fever and ague. Every day in the year the forests of tho colony are giving out and exhaling, in the form of vapor, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, aud 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 Sons did nothing of the Bort. 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 essenco can fairly assert itself to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that flesh is heir to. In SScarle t Typhoid, or any case 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 Bprirakled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a great length of time. .Inwardly usedj 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. ' In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an etherio essence, evaporate, and fill the room with tho 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 sick persons. All- Sotelkeepers 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 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 bo 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 'Rheumatism, a mixture of 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 part affected. In severe cases of Toothaclie of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may be applied on the external part of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the Fiyes, 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 essence on the effected parts. For many Cases of Severe Bruises (he essence has proved the best remedy. fgfPNo other essence is genuine except that in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark.
