Hardly another of all the preparations in existence
offers a wider scope to imposition under the
plea of "jnst as good" than the scientifically standardiLed
Eucalyptol.
The most recent fraud practiced in regard to this
product is an attempt to profit 1)3' the renown of the
firm of Sander & Sons. In order to foist upon the
unwary a crude oil, that had proved injurious upon
applicatioi:, the firm name of Sander & Sons is
illicitly appropriated, the make-up of their goods
imitated and finally the medical reports commending
on the merits of their excellent preparation are
made use of to give the desired lustre to the intended
deceit.
This fraud, which w^as exposed at an action tried
before the Supreme Court of Victoria at 1 elbourne,
and others reported before in the medica literaturei
show that every physician should see that his pat-
ent gets exactly what he prescribed. No "just as
good" allowed.

Danger Due to Substitution.
Of all the many hypnotics at the command
of the medical profession there is
none that gives as uniforn satisfaction under
all conditions as Bromidia, As has
been previously stated, the sleep produced
is of a true physiological character. It is
dreamless; and the patient awakes refreshed
and vigorous. In proper dosage, Bromidia
is perfectly safe and does not depress the
heart. A teaspoon ful should be given in
water and, if necessary, repeated hourly
until four doses have been administered.
It is needless to state that, in order that, in
order that maxium affect may be obtained
from the initial dose; the patient should be
placed under conditions favorable to the
induction of sleel.
