The local Council is making enquiries in consequence of the statement. Mr niioaes «t Irtukn. Timaku, June 9. i Mr A, E. G. Rhodes, the Oppositionist member for Geraldin\ addressed a large meeting of his constituents at Temuka last night. In finance he gave all credit to the late Government, but made light of their changes in taxation, and pointed out its defects. He expressed satisfac tion with the Land Bill, and guardedly criticised the Cheviot purchase, as sufficient information was not available to judge how it would turn oat. He urged that where land was bought for settlement the leases sbould be convertible into free hold, and the money used to purchase other lands; also that the rents should be on a 4 per cent basis, as on other Crown lands. In answer to questions he said he must keep his last election pledga against compensation to publicans, but as to the local veto he declined to say what stand he would t&keon this subject at the next election. A vote of thanks to Mr Rhodes was passed.

SANDER AND SONS' EUCALYPTI EXTRACT There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market now, produces of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken Our I?ureyolatile Euoa» lypti Extract, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878 state:— It is proved by tests made by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr Schulz, Professor of Pharmacology at Bonn, and Professor Dr Mosler, Director of the Medical Clinic at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of acids, resinous and other substances, adherent fco primary distillation, will develop the sanative qualities proper to the plant. Sander and Sons' Eucalypti Extract, according to these authorities, and according to Professor Dr Lister, of England, and to Drs Bauer, Mclntire, Wood, Hazard, etc., of America, is the only extract corresponding to scientific tests, and the only one which possesses the proper therapeutic value. All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentimes, which have, when used as medicine, no therapeutic effeot and are abandoned as an internal medicament. Theee bo called Eucalypti Extracts, which may have received distinction at Exhibitions as commercial articles and are used for mechanical purposes only are discernible: 1 By their deficiency in pungent odour "(which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract, develops most freely through its surplus of oxygen). 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile 'appearance, being reduced in specifio density through the presence of 3. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and If these crude oils, or so called eucalypti extracts are applied by mistake m cases of croup, bronchitis, diptheria, internal in flammations, dysentery, wounds, etc., Jne consequences are most appalling.
