HOOD & CO.'S SolubleSHEEP DIPPING COMPOSITION. Since Ist January, 1864, we have sold upwards of one hundred tons, sufficient to dip once four million sheep ! We commend this fact to the notice of the flockowners of Australia. Evidently the above quantity could not have been sold if it did not answer the purpose. Hood and Co., 160, Elizabeth-street, Melbourne. "Morton's HoteL 9th March, 1865. Messrs. Hood and Co., Melbourne.— Dear Sirs, — I may inform you that I have used your sheep-dipping composition very largely and with the greatest sue* cess. My sheep were very badly infected with scab"; some of them I dipped but twice, while others needed three dippings to effect a cure; but as I went on the principle of making a thorough cure, an extra dipping was no object to me. lam certainly of opinion that your composition is the most reliable as well as the cheapest remedy for scab, and I can confidently recommend it to the notice of all those whose flocks are troubled with that disease, as a simple, cheap, safe, and certain cure, if the directions are followed to the letter. It is not more thau one-fourth the cost of tobacco.— l am, &c, Donald I Cameron, Lake Meran, Lower London."

TTiIURTHER and important eyidfence of the value X? of Hood and Co.'s Sheep-dipping Compositions^ Extract from a letter received from L. Ryan, Esq., Bunyip, Wimmera: — "I dipped some flocks in tobacco and sulphur, and some in. your preparation. The only difference observable now is, that the wool 1 of those dipped in yours is clean and fit for market, whereas with those dipped in tobacco it is much stained. 'Ihe scab was cured in each case, both by the tobacco and .by the use of yours. Your preparation is only about one-third the price of tobacco, and much easier of application. lam so much impressed with the value of your composition that I shall in future use it every year, even on clean flocks, to promote the growth of the wool, and to destroy tick, &c."

HOOD & CO.'S CORN SOLVENT. A neverfailing remedy for hard or soft corns warts, ringworm, execrescences of the skin, &c. This preparation effects a cure in a few days, and produces Sermanent ease by its extraordinary virtue in estroying the sensibility and dissolving the corn. It is a simple vegetable preparation, and contains no caustic, corrosive, or injurious substance, and a cure , is certain if the directions accompanying each bottle are followed. It is requisite to caution all persons suffering from corns to avoid applying violent ' remedies, such as nitric acid, aromatic vinegar, &c, as they may do themselves serious injury. The universal success which has attended the use of the solvent throughout these colonies has surpassed even the most sanguine' expectations of the inventors, the average yearly sale having been for the last three years eight thousand bottles per year. Sold wholesale by the inventors and sole manufacturers, Hood^ and Co., manufacturing chemists and wholesale druggists, 160, .Elizabeth-street, Melbourne, and retail by all the principal chemists and storekeepers in the colony in bottles at 2s. 6d. each. Port Philip Chemical Works, 59, >| Little Bourke-street, west.' -- Testimonial cure of ajE ortjiVears' corn : • 'Richmond May, 1864. — Dea. Sirs, — Being severely tried by a large and most troublesome corn on the top of one of my toes for more than forty years, and having had it twice pretended to be taken out, and I have often tried other means to dissolve our union,, but in vain, 1 was at length induced by your recommendation to try your Corn Solvent, which I am happy to say, in five days from its being first applied, enabled me most successfully to triumph over my unwelcome companion, to get rid of which I have several times had serious thoughts of having the toe amputated. I am now, after waiting ten or twelve months to see if it would return, entirely free from all pain it occasioned, as well as any appearance of its return. I have recommended it to some of my family and friends, who have been equally successful in removing these old and troublesome intruders. You have my full sanction to use this as you please, for I' consider the- solvent to be a great boon and a sure and safe remedy for corns if properly applied, the full time, and in the manner prescribed. I am, &c, H. W. Mortimer. i-Hood and Co."

NO MORE BALDNESS.— The undersigned beg to notify that they have now received a large supply of the new and successful remedy for baldness li. has now been in use in Sydney about three months, and in Victoria barely half that period : ' and already there are numerous authenticated Qasea in .New South Wales, and some here, where the hair is positively growiug ' luxuriantly where none had been for several years. It i6|easy of application, and very little dearer than ordinary pomatum. We would strongly urge all who require its aid to lose no time, as the supply is limited. Beware of imi« tations, as none is genuine unless bearing the signature of Ed. Hy. O'i^eillonthe wrapper of each bottle.

HOOD AND CO, Manufacturing Chemists^ Melbourne, would beg to draw the attention of medical men, chemists and druggists, photographers, and the public generally, to the fact that they obtained a First-class Prize Medal fora case of chemicals janufactured by them and exhibited at the PuV T nlnternational Exhibition, 1865. They would also jrish to draw attention to the important fact the jurors not only awarded the highest medal, but made special mention of the case, remarking that the ethers, mercurial preparations, and soft soap were equal to any they had ever seen, and, further, they much regretted that the rules precluded them from awarding a second medal. The "Pharmaceutical Journal" for October, 1865, says, in its review of the Chemical products exhibited— -" Hood and Co., Melbourne, send a very good collection of Chemical productions, among which there is of course nothing novel, but many of them will bear comparison with the best productions of English, manufacture."
