Bsuer, Mclotire, Wood, Hazard, etc,, of America, is the only extract correspond- Ing to scientific tests, and the only one which possesses the proper therapeutic value. SANDER & SON'S 'EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, All other orude oils are to be clashed among the turpentines, which have, when used as medicine, no therapeutic effect, und are abandoned as an internal medicament These so-called Eucalypti Extract which nmy have received distinction at Exhibitions *3 commercial articles are used for mechanical purposes are only discernible.

If these ciude oils, so called eucilypt extracts, are applied by mistake in cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal Inflamations, dysentery, wounds, the consequences are at palling. For safety always ask for SANDER & SON'S BOCA LYPTI EXTRACT, and get the old, well fcesbed, and reliable preparation.— Sandhurst, Victoria, Australia. SANDBK & SONS.
