RE APPEARANCE OF DANTE.

. Danto, the magician, who made himself such a favorite on the occasion of hia appear ance here seme time ago, opens at the Oddfellows 1 Bail on Friday evening for oue night only. The favorable opinion of New Zealand audiences was fully endorsed m Australia! and it is generally admitted that he is one of tho finest performers m hii line that has visited the colonies When the long list of clever conjurers is recalled thia is a large admission. Those who believe m heredity will find support for their claims m the fact that Dante can trace back his peculiar gifts as far sa his maternal great grandfather, a Scotchman named Anderson —the celebrated Professor Anderson, the " Wizard of the North ''; while his father, an expert and original watchmaker, is an excellent amateur conjurer. The first magician to visit Australia was Professor Jacobs, who appeared m Sydney m tho early fifties, and visited.New Zealand some years later, In 1855 Mons. ITfaeo, the French magician, aleo created a great sensation. la 185 d the famous Professor Ancltmsa "Wizard of the North" electrified large audiences. Dr Lyna appeared »t the old Lyceum m Sydney m 1863, though mb that time he was billed as •• Washington Simmons, the American Frikell," The next great aoDjuring visitor was Robert Heller, whose performances created ft great eema. tion throughout) Australasia. As a magiciaa He ler was realty great, and paat finding outj as a pianist he was brilliant, and as a collo quial comedian and humorist vastly amusing. He waa the first) conjurer to set colonials wondering about "seoond sight," Louis. Hazelmeyer was our next visitor m 1672, and at onoe became a firm favorite, and made big money with bis magic. The next was a lady magicienne, Madame Cora—Cora do Lamond—who oamn from America m 1872. At the latter end of 1874 Dr Silvester, the lf Fakir of Oolu," appeared. Tblmaquo was the next conjurer to come to Australia m 1875. One of the greatest magicians of to-day—Keller—made & tour of th* colonies m 1876, m conj auction with Ling Look, Yamadeva, and Cunard—tbe Royal Illu ionists. Keller made a big fortune, and ia one of the largest property-owners of the profession m America. Chevalier Thorn, a very clever performer, appeared m 1879. The same year Professor Baldwin, an American, oured. He was followed hy Professor Philip Anderson m 1881, In 1889 came Professor R. Jensen and Professor Perron—both clever at the magician's art. Professor Motrit, who came out under engagement to Harry Riokards m 1897, was also an exceptionally clever illusionist. Car! Hertz, who achieved phenomenal success right through the colo- - uios, made two tours of Australia* The latest of all ia Dante, who is admitted to be equal, if not the superior, of those named above.

SANDEH JSc »ons Enca lypii jSxtraot. Under the distiaguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded ■jiploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics "and Universities all over th& Globe. There are imitations of Eucrdypti Extract the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinons oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government be of perfectly pure origin, as per nformation forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2,1873, we tate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifawald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz,Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Drs Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Grreifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the anative qualities proper to the plant Ml crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpenainee, whish: are abandoned long since as an nternal udicatnent. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible: - 1 By their deficiency m pungent odottr— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops most freely through its surplus 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 oils, so-called eucalypti extracts, are applied by mistake is cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflaroationa, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
