They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in enlightening them upon a subject of practical utility. The History of the Essence’s Discovery. The Australian anti-fever tree- that is the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus— has now spread its fame throughout the world, but there arc many who do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the lapfoi that Colony, contain about live hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that is of fever and ague. Every dawm thenar the forests of the colony aFe giOUig ouS and exhaling in the form 6fvapou rf an mpmatio fragrance to our breezes, and a hiaHth-giving essence to our people. This fyt is now recognised by all scientists in tlyf world Its Claim fs a Curative. It has now became the fashion with the inventors of discoveries of remedial agents to claim something little short of infallihi ity and univereahility of cure for their respective agents. Messrs Sander and Sons did nothing of the sort. They have confidence that their essence possesses many virtues ; but the full extent of these they do not know yet. They are now collecting data, and they are most careful and searching in performing this. It is quite sure then, that their eucalypti essence can fairly assert itself to be a grand panacea for many of the ills that flesh is heir to. In S'carlrt, Typhoid, or any case, of Fever, nothing will protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order to liberate the vapors, or spiinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a length of time. Inwardly used, take three or four drops in half a tumbler of water. The essence effects a most surprising change of the whole constitution, correcting indigestion, and creat ing a healthy appetite. For Chi'dren Attending Schools, the same mode may be adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an etheric essence, evaporate, and till the room with the purifying vapor. Are you obliged to Travel ! A few drops occasionally rubbed on the body, will protect against any contagion you may be exposed to, in coming direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. All Hotelkeepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in drawers where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure essential essence. It produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing remains. In short, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure essential eucalypti essence ought to be the one you have recourse to, aud no family ought to be without it. For all Wounds, Cuts, Burns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous Wounds, a piece of linen wrapped round the Buffering part, and moistened with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, and effect a speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen cannot be applied, the moistening of the suffering part wiih the pure essence will do as well. In case of Colds, moisten the nostrils with a few drops and inhalo the vapour, and you will feel immediate relief, and entire riddance of the heat. In all cases where the Lungs may he Affected, the above-mentioned process, continually repeated, will be the best that cau be advised. In cases of Rheumatism, a mixture of one part of the pure essential eucalypti essence with three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any other remedy. In all cases of Infammatinn, the essence may be applied to the part affected. In severe cases of Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may be applied on the external part of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the. Eyes, apply the pure essence to the outside of the eyelids. Headache, anil Rheumatic Pains in the Head, are positively cured and removed by rubbing the essence on the affected parts. For many cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the best remedy.
