We hope you will deem the subject of sufficient importance to afford this letter a space in your valuable paper.—Yours truly, „ _, SANDER SS SONS. Bridge-street, Sandhurst, July, 1880. INYERCAHGILL. N.Z,, Bth JULY 1880. Messrs. Sandkr & Sons, Sandhurst. Gentlemen,—Having suffered from eczema (a skin disease which is vory prevalent in this colony) for about nino years, I hud 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 I had tried all the remedies known to the faculty, and what between travelling dootorß' and druggists' bills, had spent a small fortune, almost if not wholly without results, except to injure my constitution. During a recent visit to Hokitika I was recommended to try your Extract of Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother who had Bxporienced great boneflt from it in alleviating a very severe cold, and, no less to my surprise than satisfaction, 1 found the disease which had troubled me bo long was conquered, and the skin resumed its normal condition. This was effected by tho external ns© of less than two one-ounce bottles. You are welcome to mako any use you please of this letter, and I subscribe myself,—Yours (Signed) JOHN H.
