We hope you will deem the subject of euffioient importance to afford this letter a space in your valuable paper.—Yours truly, SANDER & SONS. Bridgß-streot, Sandhurst, July, 1880. iNVERCinoiLL. N.Z,, Bth July 1880. Messrs. Sander & Sons, Sandhurst. Gentlemen,—Having suffered from eczema [a skin disease whioh is very prevalent in this 3Olony) for about nine years, I had consulted numerous medical men here and in Australia, and had taken arsenic, strychnine, iodide of potassium, etc., internally, and had used pre parations of zinc and lead externally. In fact t had tried all the remedies known to the faculty, and what between travelling doctors' md druggists' bills, had spent a small fortuno ilmost if not wholly without results, except to njuro my constitution. During a reoent visit ;o Hokitika I was recommended to try your ffixtract of Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother ivho had experienced great benefit from it in illeviating a very severe cold, and, no less to my mrprißO than satisfaction, 1 found the disease which had troublod me so long was conquered, md tho skin reaamod its normal condition. Phis was effected by tho external use of leas nan two ono-ouneo bottles. You aro wclcomo to mako any uso you please >£ this letter, and I subsoribe myself.—Yours (Signed) JOHN H.
