QAWSSISK A; Nona Ri(rwl>i>tl (Extract I There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market now, products of aim; 1.- distillation forming rude resinous oils. In o.d< r that those ' rutin oils may not betaken, OUR PURB VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which Is .-'cognised by tho medical division of the Prussian Government to bo o f perfectly pure origin, as their information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we state :— Is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics o£ tho Universities at Bonn and G-re'f&wald, Prussia, and reported by Dr Schuta, Pro _ssor of Parmacoloey, at Bon, and Professor Dr Hosier, Director of the Medical Clinic at Greifswald, that only product? that _re saturated with oxygen and freed of acids, resino s and other substances, adnerent to primary distillation, will davel'ipa the sanative qualities proper to the plant aocordina; to these authorities, and ac- or iing to Pro cessor Dr Lister, of England, and to Drs Bauer aMntire, Woo^, Hazard, en*., of America, is tha o.ly extract corresponding to scientific te t, and the only on* wWeh possesses the proper therapeutic value. Sander & Son's Eucalypti Ixtract. All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentines, which have, when used as medicine, no therapeutic effect, and ate abandoned as an internal medicament. These so-cUled Eucalypti Extracts which may have received distinction at Exhibitions as commercial articles are used for mechanical purposes are only discernible. By their deficiency in pungent odour—which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extracts developes moat freely through its surplus of oxygen By their alcoholic thin and mobile appearance beirg reduced in speciflo density through the presence of acids By their taste, the result of the contracting ten dency of lesins and tennates. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypti extracts, are applied by mistake' in cases of croup, ironchiti, diph theria, internal inflammations, dysentery, wcunds, the consequences are appallin.. For safety, always ask for SANDER & SOU'S EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, and get the old, well-test?d, and reliable preparation. —iMid-urst, Victoria, Australia. SANDER AND SONS.
