ENGLISH: THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE.

—_—^ , The English language ia conquering the world. At lest a little study of the advancement that it has made in the last century or bo would leem to indicate some such conclusion. In the eleventh century there were only about two millions who spoke English. Two centuries later there were but thrte millions. In the fifteenth century only four millions spoke English. The growth had been only about half a million per century from the eleventh to the thirteenth, but then the growth became much more rapid. By the sixteenth there were six millions speak ing English, by the seventeenth ei^ht million five hundred thousand, and then came the first great leap, when the end of the eighteenth century found twenty one million eight hundred thousand persons speaking English. And at the present day, as well as can be calcula ted, the English is the native tongue of one hundred and sixteen million persons, What ar» the causes of this great development of the English tongutl One undoubtedly is the epreid of the English-speaking people all over the world. Another cause is the ease with which English is learned by the foreigner. English grammar is nothing when compared with Frpnc!«, der man, or any other grammar of European nations, and, besides, wherever Ki^Hsh influence has spread—and it has spread around the world—the Knglishnna imposes his language upon the peoples with whom he has to do.

SAZWDIGtc Jto »oo« Euca lypti JUGxtrnot. Under the distinguished patronage of HU Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreign Affaire through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Olinioa and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market, product* of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oik may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUOALYPT EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Gavernmea t to be of perfectly pure origin, m per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2,1878, we fcate:— It it proved by teats by the Medioal Client of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz.Professor of Parmaoology, atßon, and Professor Dee Mossier, Director i»f the Medioal Clinics at Greifswald, chat only products that are saturated with oxygea aid freed of acids, resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the aanative qualities proper to the plan, All crude oub, or so called Eucalypti Extrac' s are to be classed according to the named authorities, Among the turpomtinec, whtah >re 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 alcoholio thin and mobile appear ance being reduced in specific density through toe presence of acids. 3 By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resin* and tennates. if these crude oils, so-c led euoalypti extracts, are applied by mista jb in cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal inflarnations, dysentery, etc, the otm sequonoes are most appalling. For safety take ask always for BANDER & SON'S EUCALYPTI EXTRACT. - Sand urtt : Victoria, Australia. SANDEK & SONS. EGKxS. MINORCAB are recommended by the Government Expert as being the best layers.
