PASSING NOTEJ (From the Otago Witness and Daily Timßß with which is incorporated the Souther! Mercury, Thursday October 29,1891.) Tinvi was whena successful brewory poB BPBsed the potentialities of woalth beyond the dreams of avarice —teste Dr Johnson—nnd tho rise of the Beerago, os impinging on the Peerage, goes farto prove his perspicacity. But his horizon was limited after all. Messrs Ja£o and Adams didn't livoin his time, and as a consequence Prohibition is not fuily defined in his dictionary. Furthermore (and this is what lam steadily lending up to) he knew nothing of the potentialities of tho pill and Iho patent medioine. It may bo that in his day mankind posscsaed a liver. But the prosumption is that if they did thoy didn't know it (h:ippy people that they were) for Hoi-' loway's pills, Warner's safe euro,- Mother Seigel's Syiup, and last, but not last, the Rov. Mother Mary Joseph Aubeit's remedies, all bcl»ng to a later age. Indeed, theJlev. Mother Aubert's romei'>n aro a loc_»l proMict, and arc only now for the fl'st time boing offered to Buffering humanity at per bottle, as I perceive from an advertisement covering more than half a column of the newspapers. No lejßa personage than Archbi.hop Redwood of Wellington formally introduoes her, and solemnly certifies to the officaoy of her medicines, though not I charitably hopo, to the tho quality of her EnglishNowadays e»orybody has a liver to bis cost, and as a consequence the potentialities of patent medicines are praotically limitless. It is to tho credit of Arehbißhop Redwood, theß, and the profit of his church, that ho has beaa the first to avail himself of this pregnant faet by starting the sale of tho Rev Mother Aubert's Remedies, You see, Catholics have ailments as weil as their heretical neighbors ;' and no good Catholic, howovor bad his liver or his stomach, will hesitate to patronise these Remedies, consecrated as they are by a distinct archepiscopal puff. And as tha net gains go to tho Church the advantages are obvious. If only the diseases of tho faithful be copious enough, and the sale of the medicines be wide enough, Gipsy encamp* ments may become superfluous and the Catholic vote cease to be a difficulty. That the other denominations will follow suit is only to be expected, and we may soon look for a and so forth, each vaunted and vouct by the pastor of the churoh in whose interest the medicament is vonded. Who knows but that in this way we may come to be delivered from the collection, the bazar, and all the pecuniary ills that ecclesiastical flesh is heir to 1 „ " N.B.—The proprietor of tho Aubert Remedies is not responsible for the composition of the above, as it is an exact reproduction: The proprietor of the Aubert Remedies wishes to draw the attention of the public to two long extracts published by 'Civis ' under passsing notes in the Otago Witneoß, 29th Ootooer, 1891. Of com so every ono with judgment will discern that there is a reason for an effusion of this kind, and it ib probably as well that the public should know. t Tho proprietor of the Mother Mary Ji Aubert Remedies was in Dunedin a few day* before this great effort from the pen of " Civis" -was created, nnd entered into a contract with the Otago Evening "\ — '" advertising, and also wished to do so wit Otago Daily Times, but the managers of the latter, evidently thinking he knew nothing about advertising and how it eould bo dpne, asked him a prohibitive price, and in ..e6nfte« quence his 'ads' have not appeared in that paper. Now as to the faots connected with these remedies, because it if as well that they should be known: His Oraco the Archbishop had nothing whatever to do with the starting of their sale, but as it is against the rales of the Churoh to enter into any engagements without previously having the permission of their head, 1 this was asked for, and as it was seen that a benefit would bo conferred upon suffering humanity, it was readily granted. Now, every person has a distinct right in his or hor private capacity to give a testimonial if the/ so choose, more particularly when siokness can be averted or cured by attention being drawn to the fact by the words of puolio men, and who, as a rule, are careful that their reputation shall not suffer by so doing, thereby proving the value of suoh a testimonial.— lADvrri
