HUOD & COS., soluble sheep-dipping composition. Since Ist January, 1f164. t we have sold upwards of one hundred tons sufficient to dip * once lour million sheep ! We commend this fact to the notice of the fiVkowners of Australia Evi- ■ dently the al.ove quantity could not have been <■• sold if it did not answer the purpose. Hood and V Co.. ICO Elizabeth street. Melbourne. Morton's Hotel, 9th March, 1865. Messrs, , Hood and Co.. .^elbojine — Dear Sirs, — I may inform you that I have used your sheep-dipping r composition very largely and with the greateet ■ success. My sheep were very badly infected with -' scab ; some of them I dipped but twice, while* others needed three dippings to effect a cure hut as I went on the principle of making a thorough cure, an extra dipping was of no object to me. lam certainly of opinion that your composition ia the most reliable as well as the cheapest remedy for scab, and 1 can confidently recemiv.end' it to the. notice of all thosa wl.ose flocks aretroubled with that disease as a simple, cheap, safe and certain cure, if the direotious are foi- - lowed to the letter. It is not more than onefourth the cost of tobacco. — I am, &c, Donald " Cameron, Lake Meran, Lower Loddon. t T7IURTHER and important evidence ef tbe • ■ » value of Hood and Co.'a sheep-dipping com- - positions. 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 of those dipped id yours is cleanand fit for market, whereaß with those dipped intobacco it is much stained. The ecab was curecS in each case, both by the tobacco and by the us© of yours Your preparation is only about onethiid the pnee of tobacco, and much easier of application. I am so much impressed with the-, ralueofyour composition that I shall in futureuse it every year, even on clean flocks, to pro- ■ mote the "growth of the wool, and to destroy - tick,&c, OOD AND CO.'S corn solvent. A never failing remedy for hard or soft corns, warto, ringworm, excrescences of the skin, &C. This • preparation effects a cure in a few days, and pro . duces permanent ease by ife extraordinary virtne • in destroyrng the sensibility and dissolving tbe • corn. It is a simple vegetable preparation, and contains no caustic, corrosive, or injurious sub- - stance, and a cure is certain if tho 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, ie, as they may do themselves serious injury. The universal success which ■ has attended the use of the solvent throughout these colonieß has .surpassed even the most sanguine expectations of the inventors, the average yearly sale having been for tha last three years eight thousand bottles per year. Sold wholesale - by the inventors and sole manufacturers, Hood and Co., manufacturing chemists and wholesale diuggists. 160 Elizabeth-street, Melbourne, and retail by all tho principal chemists and storekeepers in the colony in bottles at 2s.

Richmond, May, 1804 — Dear Sirs,— Being severelytried 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 dis- - solve our union, but all in vain. I was at length induced by your recommendation to tiy your Corn Solvent, which I am happy to say, in ive> days from its being first applied, enabled mo 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 lo - 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 troublesoina intruders. You have my full tanctio'u to use this as you please, for I consMor the solvent to be a great boon and a sure and safe remedy for corns if properly npplied the full time and in the manner prescribed. I am,, &c., H. W. Mortimer. Hood and Co. "VTO MORE BALDNESS. The undersigned ±S beg to notify that they have now received a large supply of the new and successful remedy for baldness. It has now been in use in Sydney about three months, and in Victoria barely half that period ; and alseady there are numerous au- • thenticated cases in New South Wales, and somehero, where the hair is positively growing luxuriantly where none had been for several years. It is 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 imitations, as none is genuine unless bearing tho signature of Ed. Hy. O'Neill on the wrapper of each bottle. Hood and Co.. \6oElizabelh-street, "Wholesale Agents for Victoria and Tasmania. HOOD AND CO , manufacturing chemist^ 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-clabs prize medal for a caße ■ of chemicals manufactured by them and exhibited at tho Dublin International Exhibition. 1865. They would also wish to draw attention to the • important fact that the jurors not only awarded the highest medal, but made special mention of the case, remarking that the ethers,, meicurial preparations and soft soap were equal to any they had ever seen, and, funher, they much' regretted that the rules precluded them from awarding n second medal. The v Pharmaceutical Journal " fei 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."

THE HORSE. rpHE Celebrated Author of Nimrod on Con--J[ dition asserts that he never had in his possession a horse that ever suffered from worms, wens, blind, or broken-winded ; neither experienced lameness from thrusbes, oracked beels, faroy, or humors £-„ which he attributes mostly to tbe giving of such alterative or physio medicine every two months, aa tv* excite a sufficient discharge by the skin, bowels, er kidneys, and thereby produce a regularity in tb& system. His great practical experience shows ibenecessity of administering such medicines, (particularly to horses in work) ; and to meet this desired object, no more prudent medicine can be given ibaa> GIBTON 1 WORM aud CONDITION, POWDERS, as a safe and certain remedy for destroying »lt speoies of worm, and removing and keeping back the above diseases.
