PABAMO AISD THE MEDICOS. ■WHAT THE PRESS SAYg. TYPOGRAPHICAL TESTIMONY. ' THE EDITOKS FOR ONCE AGREE. New Zealand Times, May 14, 1892. The British Medical Journal is vsry angry with Lord < 'nslow. The particular civise of the Journal's wraili i£ tbftfc our lato Governor has absolutely dared to testify to the value of remedies whose cotHpowtion is not de: ailed in the British Parmaeopoeia The wrath is exp essed as follows :— Wo see with regret Lord uns'ow shamelessly pufring quack secret remedies by an advertised letter — as scandalous an abuse of political position and as discreditable a folly as has been for a long time under notice." '-"oor Lord Onslow 1 The dyspeptic diatribe above quoted owes its exigence, no doubt, to the fact that I ord Onslow, having found virtue in some of the Aiaori herbal remedies prepared by Mother Aubert, actuallj had the courage to s:iy .-0 111 print: Why tho British Medical Journai should deem snch testimony a high offence, and, judgiug by the 'strength of the language it uses, an almost criminal dUdemeiraour, I totally fail tc see, save that the average medical mind is fanatically ogposed to any medical innovation which does not proceed from- recognised red taped sources. Twaa ever thus with the medicos. Almost every new advance m I in medical science has been bitterly attacked as "as qnaokwy " when it appeared, every new thinker de- ' ncunced as a madman or worse, and every formula not ha'l-uiar'^ed by the "Laucet" and " British Medical Journal " as a dangerous inova--1 tion. Personally, while not having the ylea»ui'e of a personal acqaniu* tance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Kempthorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow in seeing the Maori Eemedies de* nounoed as ". quack secret remedies." Only one of those same " quack remedies " do I know, and that "Karana" to "wit, which, as a "real good thing " tor a mau with a , liver,- 1 would cordially recommend to the editor of the B.M. J. He appears to need it sadly, for the common and domestic and. ' recog 1 nised" podophylliu has evidently lieen of no service to him, otheiwise he would never have penned 'so spiteful a paragraph. As, however, the "Maori Remedies "—••' quack and secret " though tuey be— are reported to, be selling like the proverbial •• hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mi; Kempthorne is likely to. trouble., about the wrath of the " Briiish MedkalJourunl." As f>r ■Lord ''nslow, he is at Home, and con fight his own battle. - " Scrutator," in the " New Zealand Mail." Waibabapa May 3, 1892. Concentrated sunshine is acknowledged to be Nature's great, remedy lov ail tho ills that human fle>h is heir to". In no part of the world is the remedy, iv rays pure and serene', move freely lavished than in New Zealand. '• he 'sunshine, p aying 1 , on 11 olear and Ba'ubrioub' tiiiogphere,' baa left its impression on th« fauna and flora of the oolony. The ex&ipct moa, the wbndrohs coal deposits, proclaim the natural wealth' of old New Zealand. The muscular M^ori and the splendid forests survive. From these forests Mother Mary Aubert has compounded several important remedies, and we recommend the announcements elsewhere to the perusal, not simply of sick, but of those in health. "A stitch in time saves nine " applies to the healing art more than to leas important matters. Mother Mary \ Aubert's New Zealand Remedies are preventive as well. A3 curative. When the first symptoms of . sickness appear their power, in cutting short the attack by rousing dormant organs and functions to activity, is said to be rerr ark able. ' Ihsidious ailments resemble the burglar, but these remedies promptly applied give the alarm and niake him decamp. There is no quackery about them, they are not foreign compounds of which people know nothing arid which may be pernicious, but they are the pure products of Now Zealand sunshine distilled through the vegetable kingdom. Better than a'l, their character has been proved, for they , have been well tested, and the best proof of their merits is that their sale is rapidly incasing. 1 Weekly Herald, Apbil, 80, 1892. A sduthern.papei 1 says : — " What with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid 5 fever has been driven from the city • of Wellington, and the place is now 1 as healthy as any town in New Zeal- \ and. No small share of the credit I is due to the Eev. Mother Mary ■ Joseph Aubert for the production oi her unrivalled remedies M And as [ far 11 s \ve are personally concerned . we must -say that, when any one oJ onr staff is afflected, no matter from what cause, even alcoholic poisoning, we pour into him a bottle of Marupa when restoration to a normrl condition takes i»lace s at once;
