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 Onslow. The particular cause of the Journal’s wrath is that our late Governor has absolutely dared to testify to the value of remedies whose composition is not detailed in the British Pharmacopoeia. The wrath is expressed as follows : “We see with regret Lord Onslow shamelessly puffing quack secret remedies by an ad' vertised letter —as scandalous abuse of political position and as discreditable a folly as has been for a long time brought under notice.” Poor Lord Onslow ! The dyspeptic diatribe above quoted owes its existence, no doubt, to the fact that Lord Onslow, having found virtue iu some of the Maori herbal remedies prepared by Mother Aubert, acf ually had the courage to say so in print. Why the British Medical Journal should deem such testimony a high offence, and, judging by the strength of the language it uses, an almost criminal misdemeanor, I totally fail to see, save that the average medical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which does not proceed from recognised red-taped sources. ’Twas ever thus with the medicos. Almost every new advance made in medical science has been bitterly attacked as “ quackery ” when it appeared, every new thinker denounced as a madman or worse, and every formula not hall-marked by the Lancet ” and British iVledical Journal” as a dangerous innovation. Personally, while not having the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Kempthorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow in seeing the Maori Remedies denounced as “ quack secret remedies.” Only one of those same “ quack remedies dp I know, and that “ Karaua ” to wit. which, as a “ real good thiug ” for 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 “ recognised ” podophyllin has evidently been of no service to him, otherwise lie would never have penned so ep.itefqx a paragraph. As, however, ' lf 3laor' Remedies ” —“ quack and secret ” though they be—are reported to lie selling like the proverbial “ hot cakes,” pei(her Mother Aubert nor Mp [fempThprue it* ,J ' wpyrv appiit tbu wi’***' * Medici T thc , , , u ■ ..j-uai.

Auckland Star, May 7, I hhe. MOTHER ALBERT'S REMEDIES. In these days of patent medicines it requires that certificates of excellence should be signed by the names of persons of standing in the community. The herbal remedies put up by the Rev. Mother Mary Joseph Aubcrt, of Jerusalem, Wanganui River, have already been highly spoken of, and elsewhere will be seen an advertisement which publishes in full the testimony of such eminent personages as Lord Onslow, Bishop Grimes, of Christ • church, bishop Redwood, of Wellington, and, passing from the pulpit to the stage. Mr Walter Bentley. The latter aekoov. ledges the w omii hid result, to his voh .• from using *’ Marupa." Another preparation designated “ Karaua ” is said to be equal to combating most of the ills of life; and restores a broken-down constitution. It is a vegetable tonic, pleasant to take, and by no means hurtful in its action. These valuable medicines arc now being put up by Messrs Kempthornc, Prosser & Co.
