The Southland Drowning Accident.

The following further particulars are given by the SoutUand Times of Monday :— Last Sunday afbernoon a singularly painful fatality occurred at Woodstock, about a | mile and a half from D^cre. Three children of Mr Archibald Fotheringham, farmer, were playing round a waterhole about five feet in depth and 15 feet square, when a boy, Bix years of age, fell in. One of his sisters, eight years of age, ran oo the houße, A distance of about three chains, for help, and her father and Annie, agee sixteen, hurried to the spot. The latter, who reached it first, jumped into the water, cry* inai to herbrother, " Don't drown, Johnny." Mr Fotheringham followed, but stuok in the mud at the bottom, and his little daughter on the bank handed him a pole with which he could extricate himself. He then gob the boy out, but, in the meantime, Annie had sunk in the soft mud till nothing bub her hair floating on the surface of the water was seen. . Her father at once re entered the water and brought her out, bub life was extinct. The Coroner did not deem an inquest neoessary. f

Under the distinguished 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 diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are Imitations of Eucalypti Extract Sn the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPT EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to ns through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we bats:— It is proved by tests by the M edicul Client of the Universities at Bonn and Graffswald Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schm?,,Professor of ParmaCDlogy, at Bon, and Professor Dre Mossier, Director ft the Medics.l Clinics as Greifswald, that only products that aro saturated with osygeu a..id freo_d of aoide resinous and other substances, &dhcrenb to primary distillation, will develope the sanative " qualities proper to the plan Alleruds oils, or socnllod Eucalypti Extract are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpeadnee, which *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 alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced in specific density through tne presence jf acids. 3jßy 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 :e in cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal infiamatiens, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
