oonts'tuent of Eucalyptus oil, it is not surprising that public favour in most countries, 
outside the United Kingdom, has again inclined in a larger measure towards the pure 
and reliable distillate of the Eucalyptus globulus. This oil, when rectified, and deprived 
of its evil-smelling and cough-producing constituents (which are the first to distil over), 
deserves the preference on account of the uniformity of its quality, if for no other 
reason." (" Bericht," October, 1893.) 
Schimmels' preference for globulus oil must always be road in view of their 
commercial interests. Their statement as to the " fact no longer contradicted " about 
Eucalyptol, while not being strictly accurate, implies that, at that time, most work 
was being done in original research, with Eucalyptol oils of globulus origin. Possibly 
the same or better results might have been obtained had oils containing little or no 
euealyptol been used. The matter will be referred to later.
