Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1833. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Univeraities all over the Globe.

In order that these orticle oil« may not be taken, OUjt PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, whioh m recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government bo of perfectly pure origin, as per nformation forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we tate :-— It is proved by testa by tbe Medioal Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz, Professor £ Parmaoology, at Bon, and Profcs&or Dr. Mossier, Director of the Medioal Olinica at Qreifswald, that only produots that are ■atnrated with oxygen and freed of resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the tanative qualities proper to the plant \llorude oils, or so balled Euoalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentinee, whioh are abandoned long since as an nternal adioament. These orude oils, or so called Euoalypti Extracts, are discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour— whioh our produot, the only genuine Euoalypti Extraob develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alooholio thin and mobile appear- ance being reduoed m speoifio density thf ongh the presonoe of acids. By their taste, the result of the oontraoting tendency of resins and tennates. If these orude oils, so-called eucalypb extracts, are applied by mistake m oases of oroup, bronohitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc., the con- ■equences are most appalling.
