PASSING NOTES (From the Otago Witness and Daily Timss witli which is incorporated the Southern Mercury, Thursday October 29,1891.) Time was when a successful brewery pos sesscd the potentialities of wealth boyond the drenms of avarice-testo Dr Johnson—and tho rise of the Becrngo, as impinging on the recrage, goes fartoprove his perspicacity. But his horiion was limited after all. Messrs Jajo and Adomß didn't live in his time, andas a oonsequeneo Prohibition is not fuily denned in his dictionary. Furthermore (and this l what lam steadily lending upto) he knet nothing of the potentialities of tho pill Mid the patent medicine. It may bo that in his day mankind possessed a liver. But the presumption is that if they did they didn t know it (happy pcoplo that they were) for Hol» _— loway's pills, Warner's safe cure, Mother -* Seigel's Syrup, and last, but not I'ast, the < Rev. Mothor Mary Joseph Aubert's romedies, all belcng to a later agv. Indeed, the Rev. Mother Aubert's remedies are a looil product, and are only now for the fl.st time being offered to suffering humanity at per bottle,: as I percsivc from an advertisement covering > more than half a column of the newspapom. No less a personage than Archbifhop Redwood of Wellington formally introduces her, and solemnly certifies to tho efficaey of her medi- , cines, though not I charitably hope, to the the quality of hor English. and as a consequence the potentialities or patont medicines are practically limitless, It is to the credit of Archbishop Redwoed, then, and tho profit of his church, that ho has bee* the first to avail himself of this pregnant faet by starting the sale of tho Rev Mother Aubert 8 Remedies, You see, Catholics have ailment* na well as their heretical neighbors ; and no good Catholic, however bad his liver or his stomach, will hesitate to patroniso theso Romedies, consecrated as they are by _» distinct archepiscopal puff. And as the net gains go to the Churoh the advantages are . obvious. If only the diseases of the faithful be copious enough, and the_ sale of the medicines bo wide enough, Gipsy encampments may become superfluous and the Catholic vote cease to. he a difficulty. That the other denominations will follow suit is only to bn expected, and we may. soon look for ft Methodist mixture, a Presbyterian plaster, and so forth, each vaunted and vouched f« by the pastor of tho churoh in whose interest the medioament is vended. Who knows but that in this way wo may como to bo delivered from the collection, the boznr, and all the pecuniary ills that ecclesiastical flesh is heir tol ■ ~ • N.B.—Tho proprietor of tho Aubert Remedies is not responsible for tho composition of the above, as it is an exact reproduction: The proprietor of tho Aubßrt Romedies wishes to draw tho attention of the public to two long extracts published by 'Oivis ' under passsing notes in the Otago Witness, 29th Octooer, 1891. Of couiso every ono with judgment will discern that there is a reason for an effusion of this kind, and it is probably as well that the public should know. Tho proprietor of the Mother Mary Joseph jp Aubert Remedies waß in Dnncdin a few days before this great effort from the pen of " Civis" was created, and entered into a contact with the Otago Evening Star for advertising, ond also wished to do so with the Otnco Daily Times, but the managers of the latter, evidently thinking he knew nothing about advertising and how it eouldbo done, asked him a prohibitive .prfce. ; and in consequence his 'ads' have not appeared in that paper. Now as to the facts connected with these romedies, becauso it if as well that thoy should be known: His Graco the Arohbishop_ had v; . nothing'whatever to do with'the starting of ' their sale, but as it is against the rules of the Church to enter into any engagements without previously having the permission of their head, this was askod for, and as it was seen that a benefit would bo conferred upon suffering humanity, it was reedily granted. Now, every person has a distinct r.ght in his or bev private capacity to give testimonial if they so choose, more particularly when sickness can' be averted or cured by attention being drawnto the fact by the words of publio men, and. who, as a rule, are careful that their reputa* , tion shall not Buff or by so doing, thereby proving the value of such a testimonial.— [Advt\]
