Mopler, professor at the University of Greifswald, Germany, viz : " Having experienced the advantages derived from inhalations of tie Kxtract Eucalyptib Folii in csao* of ochinococron of tho lungs with bronchial affections, Imado up my mind to try tho same remedy in oases of Diphtheria. Dr s'alenz, a pupi' of mine, has sin<-e, in his diarera lion, rcpoited tho particulars of tho cases treated, and I may bo allowed briefly to refer to one of th 9 rnses enumerated therein. Ida X., of Pa:ewalk, twenty years of nge, had on the l'Jih February, 1879, a lit of chilling fever with violent pains in hor throat. Sho called upon a medical practitioner, who, recognizing at once the case to be ono of diphtheritis, made her enter ray klinik, where 1 had to separate her from tho other patients. Tho patient, woll developed for hor age, was complaining of pains In her throat, which grew worse when she en deavoured to swallow, apeak, or move the neck. The submaxillar and tubmental glands were much swollen, and tho foyer was of a remitting nature. The condition of the patient was on tho 22ud of February: Warmth=3o.4 C, pulse=96, respiration=2o. Prescrip'ioD : Extract euo. c, foliis to bo Inhaled for twenty minntes every bonr. The following day the patiol.t threw out small particles of exradat. The local app.ar ances in the plwynx grew worse, ann the exsudats wero more extended over iho mucous j membrane. That increase cf symptoms cuu;cd j mo to augment the doso to ono tea- | spoonful of extract euc. used for inhali tion ; also tho inlia'ations were continued during the eight. On the 27ih patient got better and the fever had subsided. On examining ttie pharynx it was easily to be noticed that the pro cess oC diphtheritis gave way, and on the 11th c f March the patient was rumored to he ilth and discharged. The report in auction Earn that theKucalypti Extract in all cases of .iiphtheritiea uroved successful; it also Sets forth cases tf laryngitis and bronchit s, chronic •, pneumonia, crouposa dext a, 80 to pharynyitia, combined with laryngitis treated successfully with tho Kucalypti Extract. (I'huse diseases constitute nearly all the aflec tions 01 the throat and respiratory orgaLß, mostly caused by neglected colds) ■ The above reported cure of diphtheria, a di sease which is always attended by fever, proveH the efficacy of our Extract Eucaljp ua in all cases of fever, and as it at tho same tini<» disin fects all wound", and checks inflammation, it will be a praitivp cure of nearly all diseases, chiefly, Fevere, Rheumatiani, Colds, Wounds or all kinds, Sprains, Bruises, Etc. .
