' WHAT THE PRESS SAYS. TYPOGRAPHICAL TESTIMONY. THE EDITORS FOU ONCE AGREE, ( (Neu> Zealand Times, May 14,1592.) The British Medioal Journal is very angry with Lord Onslow. The particular ' cause of tho Journal's wrath is that our late Governor has absolutely dared to testify to the value of remedies whose composition is not detailed m the British Pharmacopoeia. The wrath is expressed as follows"Wo see with regret Lord Onslow shamelessly pulling quack secret remedies by an .advertised lettor—as scandalous an abuse uf political position and as discreditable a tolly as has been for a long time brought under notice." Poor Lord Onslow I 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 reniodies prepared by Mother Aubert, actually 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 misdemeanour, 1 totally . fail to see, savo that the average medical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which does not proceed from recognised red-taped ourcea. '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 hallmarkod by the " Lancet" and "British Medical Journal " as a dangerous inno- ' vation, Personally, while not having the ' pleasure of a personal acquaintance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Ketnpthorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow m seeing the Maori Rerai- . dies denounced as "quack remedies." j Only one of tlwse same " quack reme- ] dios" do I know, and that •'Karana" 1 to wit, which as a •' real good thing " 'J for a man with a liver, I would cordially * recommend to the editor of tho B.M.J, j He appears to need it Badly, for the ] common and domestic and "recognised" 1 podophyllin has evidently been of no service to him, otherwise ho would never ' have penned so spiteful a paragraph, As j however, the " Maori Remedies " •'quack and secret "though they be— ] are reported to be selling like the proverbial " hot cakes," neither T&lothor ' Aubert nor Mr Kempthorne is likely to , worry about tho wrath of tho 1 British ] Medical Journal." As for Lord Onslow ] he is at Homo, and can fight his own battle.—" Scrutator," hi the' New Zea ' land Mail,' j Weekly Herald, Apbii 30,1892. j A Boutheru paper says\\ hat. with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid lever has been driven from the city of Wellington, and 1 the place is now aB healthy as any town <s in New Zealand. No small share of the ( credit is duo to the Rev Mother Mary ( Joseph Aubert for the production of her ( unrivalled remedies.' 1 And as far as we ( are personally concerned wo must say that, when any one of our stall is afl'ected, no matter from what cause, even from alcoholic poisoning, we pour into ' him a bottle of Marupa, when restoration J to a nornißl condition takes plaoe atonce. j Reefton Goaediau, Arm 14,1892. ! We would ask our readers to givo their ' attention to tho change in the advertise- { ment of Mother Mary Joseph Aubert's Medicines, which will be found on our ( fourth page to-day. Theso Medicines . are fast gaining in public esteem, and the excellent testimonials received, including one from Bishop Grimes, as to their curative properties, and which are ■ published, should be an ample guarantee of tbeir effioaoy, The public should carefully peruse the adtertisement. 1 Adokiabd Star, May 7, 1892. MOTHMI ADBERT'S REMEDIES. 5 In thtse days of patent medicines it re- j quires that certificates of excellence , should be signed by the names of persons of standing in tbe community. The herbal remedies put up by the Key. Mother Mary Joseph Aubert, of Jerusalem, Wanganui Rivor, have aiready been highly spokon of, and elsewhere will be seen an advertisement which publishes in full tho testimony of such eminent per- ' sonages as Lord Onslow, Bishop Grimes, of Ohrigtehurch, Bishop Redwood, of Wellineton, and, passing from tho pulpit to the stage, Mr Walter Bentley, The latter acknowledges the.wonderful result to his voice from' using " Marupa. 1 ' 1 Another preparation designated "Karana " is said to be quite equal to combating most of the ilia of life, and re" stores a broken down constitution, It is a yegetablo tonio, pleasant to take, and by no means hurtful in its action. These valuable medicines' are now being put up by Messrs Kempthorne Prossor. & Co. "
