A Long Married Couple.

« Tit-Bits , offered £o to the person should supply the mow interesting particulars about the oldest coup c fnthe United Kingdom. A Mr Arthui -b.mpbell "took the cM<e" with the following :-» Mr and Mrs Ross (D-v,d and Kliz^beth), now residing at Nook Fern, Inverness, were born Mr Ross m 1794, andMraHossin 1792 the. ages now being respectively 102 i and 104 years. Born m the same village ia /ngland, the couple have b.en known to each other for a century. They were schooled together, and »t an early age were sent out to fcrm seme* Jo eke out a livelihood. Nothing of importance is known respecting th«m until they had reached between twenty and thirty years of »ro, when a rumor vas circulated thit 'he pair weremjs ting from their empl yment. This proved true. It tra spired that the couple had gone off tegether to the famous • Gretna Green,' and there were united m matrimony. They afterwards Unk up their abode m Scotland, managing a farm Soon after they emigrated to America, but matters were not to their expectations, and the next move was to Australin, where they remained a considerable period, amassing a tidy fortune m sheep farm ing. They then returned to their native country (fifty years ago), and ever since have been living m com parativ« ease and comfort. Only three children were born of the union. One lived to the proverbial three score and ten years. Of t hose surviving one is m New Zealand and the other m England. Mr and Mrs Ross have always been of temperate habits, excepting that Mr Mr Ross is an inveterate smoker, sometimes consuming an ounce of his favourite shag per day. The venerable couple have done much travelling (which seems their chief hobby), having been three time 3 to Australia and New Zealand and six times to America and back. Nothing extraordinary has occurred during their long married life except an unfortunate accident which befell them when returning from their diamond wedding some years ago— they had the misfortune to be thrown out of a carriage, and both sustained a fractured arm. The old couple are still bale and hearty, and, with the exception ot failing eyesight, still retain their faculties."

SA3NI>EIf-C «Sc »oiiS Euca- lypti ISxtract. Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, aB per communica- tion made by the Miuiater for Foreign Affairs through tho Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14; 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinica and Universities all over the Globe. Xhere are imitations of Eucalypti Extract m the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, ■ OUJR PURE VOLATILE EUOALiPTI EXTRACT, which is lecoguised by the meiticaj division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to ua through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, w<- state : — It is proved by testa by the Medical Clinics of His Universities at Bonn and Greilawald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schulz.Profeßsor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr. Mossier, Direotor of thr Mr dical Clinics ai Greifswald, that only products that ar« j saturated with oxygen and freed of ds resinous aod <>ther rubstancos, adneront to primary dis'iilatiun, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant Alloruila oils, or t-o called > ucalypti Extract* are to be cWsed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which are abaudon-H toni? since an an nto'nsl ddicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops most freely through its eurplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduced m specific density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resine and tennates. If these crude oile, so called eucalypt extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc., the con- sequences are most appalling.
