lypti JEactrfict. Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica tion made by the Minister for Foreigu Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Olinics and Universities all over the Globe, There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract i In the market, products of simple diatillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPT EXTEACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the PrussianGovemment to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we bate:— It is proved by tests by the Medical Client of the Universities at Bonn and Greifewald Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schnlz.Profeesor of Parmacoiogy, at Bon, and Professor Drc Mossier, Director af the Medical Clinics as Greifswald, that only products that aro •ftturated with oxygen a.jd freed of abide reßinous and other substances, adherent t primary, distillation, will develope th •anative qualities proper to the phn All crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extract. »re to be classed according to the named authorities, among tbe turpentinee, which %xo abandoned long since as an internal medicament. These crude oils, or so called ifiucalypti 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 anoe being reduced in ppecifio dentity through toe presence jf acids. 3 By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and tennates. xf these crude oils, so-c led eucalypti extracts, are applied by mista .c in cases of oro up, brouchitis, diphtheria, internal iaflamations, dysentery, etc., the con uequences are most appalling.

The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills, enfeeble the stom*ch and paraljze ! the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite wiih on 9or two \ of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills.
