1 PABA.MO AND THE ME.()ICOS. WHAT THL< PBESS SAYS. TYPOGBAPHICAL TESTIMONY. THE EDITORS FOR ONCE AGBEti. New Zealand Times, May 14, 1892. The British Medical Journal is vsry angry with Lord i.fitflow, The purticillnr ca*ise of the JjUiWil's ! wrath \H tliflt ottr Lite Governor has jibsolutelj dared to ifi'Stifjr to the value of remedies whose coitijJogition is not de' ailed in the British Parmacopoeia. The wrath is expressed as folioifs j— We see with regret Lord unslow shamelessly pu filing quack secret remedies by an advertised letter — as scandalous an abtJso of political position and as discreditab'e a foily as has been for a long time under notice." 1 'oor Lord Onslow ! The dyspeptic diatribe above quoted owes its existence, no doubt, to the fact that Lord- Onslow, having found virtue in some of the Maori herbal j reoicdics prepared by Mother Atlbert, actualh had the courage to soy so j in print. Why the British Medical Journal should defm such testimony it higli offence, and, judging by the strength of ihe language it u;es, an almost criminal dL-denieanonr, I totally fail tc see, save that the average medical mind is fanatically ogposod to any medical innovation which does not proceed from recognised red taped sources. Twas ever thus with the medicos. Almost every new advance in d in medical science haa been bitterly attacked as '• as qnackory" when it appeared, every new thinker denounced as a madman or worse, and every formula not ha^l-marked by the ' ; Lancet " !ind '* British. Medical Journal :> as a dangerous inova* tion. Personally, while not having the pleasure of a personal acquniutance with either Mother Aubert or Mr ICempthorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow in seeing the Maori Remedies de<« nouncedas " 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 man with a liver, I would cordially recommend to the editor of the B.M.J. He appears to need it sadly, for the common and domestic and •• recog* nised" podoplrylliu has evidently been of no service to him, otheiwise he would never have penned so spiteful a paragraph. As, however, the "Maori Remedies "— ■" quack aud secret " though they be — are reported to be selling like the proverbial •• hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kempthovue is likely I to trouble about the wrath of the '* British Medical Journ.-il." As for Lord <fns!ow, he is at Home, and con fight his own battle. - l( Scrutator," in the " New 2J»-nland Mail." Waibabapa. .\tar, May 3, 1892. Concentrated sunshine is acknowledged to be Nature's great remedy tor ail the ilk that human lltii'i is heir to. In no part of the world is the remedy, in rays pure and serene, more finely lavished than in New Zealand. '• he sunshiue, playing on it dear and sa übriouss tmoeph'ie, haa left its impression on thu fauna and flora of the colony. The extinct moa, the wondrons coal deposits, proclaim the natural wealth of old New Zealand. The muscular Maori 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 less important matters. Mother Mary Aubert's New Zealand Remedies are preventive as well as curative. When the first symptoms of sickness appear their power, in cutting short the a-tack by rousing dormant organs and functions to activity, is said to be remarkable. Insidious ailments resemble the bu-glar, but the&e remedies promptly applied give the alarm and make him decamp. There is no quackery about them, they are not foreign compounds of which people know nothing and which may be pernicious, but they are the pure produots of Now Z?a'and sunshine distilled through the vegetable kingdon. Better than al, their j character h as been proved, for they have been well tested, and the best proof of their merits is that their sale is rapidly mc easing. Weekly Hebald, April, 30, 1892. A southern j aper says :— " What with Marupa, Ivarana, Paramo.
