CONCERT AT ELGIN.

. * The annual concert for the school priz9 was held at Elgin oo Friday evening, and «vas as successful m every way as it was enjoyable. Elgin has earned an enviable reputation for well arranged concerts, and this last one was quite up to the standard. Miss Gates opened the programme with a well played pianoforte solo, and Miss Lambie .followed with "By the fountain," anitem of considerable merit. The same young lady also sang " Within a mile " very acceptably. "Arrah, go on" by Mr Tteaton was re demanded and "Last night" given as a response. Miss F. Gates contributed two very pleasing ballads, one being "Childie," while Mrs Percy Jones Bang ♦• tanta Maria " and *'• Needles and pins " m her well-known accomplished style. The evergreen "John Peel," with full " Tally-ho " chorus by the juveniles, was giveu by Mr Upton, and Mr Frizzslle was as amusing as ever m his Irish recitations. Mr Burgess's pleading tenor voice was heard to advantage m " My pretty Jane " ; and Miss Howard, of Chrhichurch, was recalled for " Riding on a load of hay." Anovelty were Mr Seyrr.our'B songs with banjo accompaniment, and they were vociferously encored, bb was also Mr R. Upton's " Still hia whiskers grew." Two quartets concluded the musical portion of the programme. Mr Lambie then pave an exhibition of his phonograph, and cmsed much delight with the half dczen records he put through, principally with a record of the bagpipes, played by Mr James Scott. Club exercise by four young ladies from Hampstead School (the Miss Hunt) completed the programme, and the steadiness aud precision of the swinging were much appreciated. Miss Gates played the moat of the accompani ments m a pleusing manner, relieved Vy Miss Protheroe and Mr Dardi3, while Mr J. Cochrane he'd the position of Chairman, and thanked the performers for their kind assistance. A ball was held as usual, at the close of the concert, the music being pro vided by Mess's Walker and bunnibell (2), and was very successful. Hoixoway's Ointuekt and Pilt,s — The Good D.c Young — Unlike moat popular sayings, this has very little truth m it. Experience every day proves that some at leaßt of the gtod are spared to make tho world brighter and better, and a more pleasant place to live ir>. In fact, our experience is that good peoplo, and good things generally, live the loDge9t. For example, consider the thousands of arlickß which have been widely advertised and are now forgotten. Why.? Because they were bar}. On the other han^, we have Hollo way's Pills and Ointment, which have proved the faithful friend of poor humanity for fifty years aud more. Why? Because they are good. Of a truth, that which is good does not die, but lives for all time.

BAIS T r»l'i &, Run* Kuua- lyp«i Extract. Under the distinguished patronage of His ( Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica- | ion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through the Connul-Geaeral for Italy, at 1 Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded j diploma at the Ams'erdam Exhibition, 1883. ' Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are invitations of Eucalypti Extract the niiirket, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI BXTKACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government be of perfectly pure origin, as per □formation forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne. March 2. 1878, we tate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr; Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of resinous and other substancos, adherent to primary distillation, will develops the •anative qualities proper to the plant \ll crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which ire abandoned long since as an nternal adicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible : I By their deficiency m pungent odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus oxygen. ,-..,. By their alooholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduoed m speoifio density through Che presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resine and tennates. If these crude oils, so-called euoalypt extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of oroup, bronohitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc, the con- sequences are most appalling.
