THE GUM LEAF CURE. Eucalypti Essence! ET the Public take notice of a few facts put forward for their information in this intimation. They may be worth their study, and repay perusal in enlightening them upon a subject of practical utility. The History of the Essence's The Australian anti-fever tree- that is the blue gum, or eucalyptus globulus— has now spread its fame throughout the world, but there are many who do not properly estimate its splendid qualities. It has been estimated that the Australian blue gums, which stud the face of the Colony, contain about five hundred million gallons of pure volatile oil, that is the mortal foe of fever and ague. Every day in the year the forests of the colony are giving out and exhaling in the form of vapour, an aromatic fragrance to our breezes, and a health-giving essence to our people. This fact is uow recognised by all scientists in the world Its Claim as a Curative. It has now become the fashion with the inventors of discoveries of remedial agents to claim something little short of infallihi ity and universahility of cure for their respective agents. -Messrs Sander and Sous 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 moot careful and searching in performing this. It is quite sure then, that tin ir eucalypti essence can fairly assert itself to he a grand panacea for many of the ills that llcsh is heir to. lu Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever, nothing vv ill protect better against contagion than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, iu order to liberate the vapors, or spiiukled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a length of time. In wardly used, take throe or four drops in half a tumbler of water. The essence effects a most surprising change of the whole constitution, collecting iiuligestiou, and creat ing a heal'hv appetite. For Chi dren Attending Schools, the same mode may he adopted. In Cases of Sickness, a few drops put into a saucer, and put into the room will, being an ethcrio essence, evaporate, and fill 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 iliiect with sick persons, or in siccing in die same room with, or in beds occupied previously by sick persons. AH I fold keepers will do well to sprinkle from time to time in diawers where linen is usually kept, a few drops of the pure es eutial essence, it produces no spots whatever, as every particle of it evaporates, and nothing n m tins. lu shod, where a disinfectant is needed, the pure es-initial eucalypti essence ought to he the one you have recourse to, and no Discovery. family ought to he without it.

For oil ll’ui'M'/s, Cut*, Burns, Scoldings, Ulcers, and Cancerous IT omuls, a piece of linen wrapped round tlio suffering part, ami moistened with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, will stop all pain, anil effect a speedy cure. In cases where a piece of linen cannot ho applie 1, the moistening of the suffering part with the pure essence will do as well. In cusi■ of Colds, moisten the nostrils with a few (imps and inhale the vapour, and you will feel immediate relief, and entire riddance of 1 he heat. In all. ca *i’¥ inhere the Limps may he Affected, the above-mentioned process, continually repeated, will be the beat that can be advised In crises of Bheiimn/'isin, a mixture of one part of tin- pure essential eucalypti essence will three parts of spirits of wine, well rubbed in the suffering part, has acted better than any other remedy. In all cases of Inflammation, the essence may he applied to the part affected. In serere cases if Toothache of rheumatic origin, the pure essence may bo applied on tbe external part of the face. In cases of Inflammation of the. Eyes, apply 7 the pure essence to the outside of the eyelids. Headache, and Rheumatic Pains in the Head arc p isitively cured and removed by ruhbincr the essence on the affected parts. For many cases of Severe Bruises the essence has proved the best remedy'. tS* No other essence is genuine except that in the vials bearing on the labels our signature and trade mark Retail Agents : Henry llotop, Chemist, Clyde.
