Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Olinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market, products of simple distillation forming crude reainous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUOALYPT EXTRACT, which ia recognised by the medic&l division of the PrussianGtovernment to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Oonfcul at Melbourne, March' 2, 1878, we bate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Client of the Universities at Bonn and Greifawald Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz.Professor of jParmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dre Mossier, Director ef the Medical Olinics as Greifßwald, that only products that aro saturated with oxygen aad freed of aoicie resinous and other substanoes, adherent t prjimaty distillation, will develope th sanative qualities proper to the plan All crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extract are to be classed according to the named! authorities, among the turpenainee, which abandoned long since as an internal medicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible:— * 1 By their deficiency in pungent odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract! develops most freely ' through its surplus oxygen, 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear-! ance being reduced in specifics density through tae preaenoe <jf acids. 3- By their taste, the result; of the contracting tendency of reaine and tennates. xf theßO crude oils, so-c lied eucalypti extracts, are applied by mista ;e ia cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal mflamations, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
