I PAJUMLO AND THE ' MEDICOS. WHAT THE PRESS SAYS. TYPOGRAPHICAL TESTIMONY. THE EDITORS fOR ONCE AGREE. New Zealand Times, May 14, 1892. The British Medical Journal is very angry with Lord • 'nslow. The particular cause of the Journal's wrath is that our late Governor has absolutely dared to testify to tlie value of remedies whose composition is not de; ailed in the British Parmacopoeia. The wrath isexpessedas follows :— We see with regret Lor> Uns'ow shamelessly puffiing quae, secret remedies by on advertised letter -as scandalous an abuse of political position and as discreditab c a fo;ly as has been for a long time under notice." I 'oor Lord Onslow ! The dyepeptic diatribe above quoted owes its existence, no doubt, to tht fact that lord Onslow, haying found virtue in some of the Maori herbal remedies prepared by Mother Aubert, actually had the courage to say .- 0 in print. Whj* the British Medical Journal should deem such testimony a high offence, and, judging by the strength of ihe language it uses, an almost criminal di&demeanour, I totally fail tc see, save that the average medical mind is fanatically ogposed to any medical innovation which doe? not proceed from recognised red taped sources. Twas ever thus with the medicos. Almost every new advance m d in medical science has been bitterly attacked as '• as quackery" when it appeared, every new thinker denounced as a madman or worse, and every formula not hail-marked by the "Lancet " and " British Medical Journal : ' as a dangerous inova* tion. Personally, while not having the pleasure of a personal acqunintance with either Mother Aubert- or Mr Kempthorne, I can sympathise with tbem and Lord Onslow in seeing the Maori Remedies de« nouneed as " quack secret remedies." Ouly 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. •• yecog* nised" podophylliu has evidently been of no service to him, otheiwise he would never have penned so spiteful a paragraph. As, however, the "Maori Remedies "—•" quack and secret " though they be— are reported to be selling like the proverbial '• hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kempthorne is likely to trouble about the wrath of the " British Medioal Journal." As for Lord Onslow, he is at Home, and con fight his own battle,— '• Scrutator," in the " New Zealand Mail." Wairahapa Stab, May 8, 1892. Concentrated sunshine is acknowledged to he Nature's great remedy lor ail the ills that human flesh is heir to. In no part of the world is the remedy, in rays pure aud serene, more freely lavished than in New Zealand. The sunshine, playing on a clear and sa übrious atmosphere, has left its impression on the 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 healiug 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, bufc these 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 products of New Zealand sunshine distilled through the vegetable kingdon, Better than al, .their character has been proved, for they have been well tested, and the beßt proof of their merits is that their sale is rapidly mci easing. Weekly Herald, April, 30, 1892. A southern paper says : — ■« What with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid fever has been driven from the city of Wellington, and the place is now as healthy as any town m New Zealand. No small share of the credit is due to the Rev, Mother Wary Joseph Aubert for ihe pr duciion of her unrivail.d remedies "' And as i far as we are personally concerned , we must say that, wben any cne of our staff is afflected, no matter from what cause, even alcoholic poisoning, we pour into him a bottle of Marupa J when restoration to a norm. rl condition takes place at once»J
