In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR Puhe Volatile Eucalypti Extract, whicH is recognised by the medical division of ihe Prassfan Government to be of per fectly pure origin, as tbeir information forwarded to ns through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2,1878 we state : - Is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Oriefswal*', Prussia, and reported by Dr Schulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, uad Professor Dr Mosler, Director of the Medical Clinic at Greifswald, that 'only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of aids, resinoCß and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, i will develops the sanative qualities proper to the plant according to these authorities, and according to Pro fewor Dr Lister of England, and to Brs Bauer If clntiro, Wood, Hazard, etc., of America, is the only extract corresponding to scientific tests, and the only on which possesses the proper rherapeutic val'ie. Sander & Son's Eucalypti Extract All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentines, which h»ve,when need as medicine, no therapeutic effect and are abandoned as an internal medic^Jient. These so called Eucalypti Extraots which may have received distinction at Exhibitions as Sommercisl articles are used for mschanical pur pises are only discernible:— By their deficiency In pungent odour (which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extracts de velopes most freely through its snrplua of oxygen) By their alcoholic thin and mobile appearance, being recuced in specific density through the presence of acids By their taste, the result of th contracting ten dency of resins and tennates. If these crude oils, so called eucalypti extraots are applied by mistake in cases o croup, bronchitis, diph theria, internal Infammations, dysentery, wounds, the consequences are appalling For safety always ask for SANDER AND BON 8 EUCALYPTI EXTRACT and get the old, well-tes'ed and reliable preparation.—Sand hurst, Victoria, Australia.
