I. C,Morrow & Co., LAND AND ESTATE AGENTS, WELLINGTON. CORNER OF GREYOTEET FEYIHERSTON STREET J. C. MoEERROW & Co. WHAT THE PRESS SAYS. TYPOGRAPBICAL TESTIMONY, THE EDITORS FOR ONOE AGREE. (New Zealand Times, May U, 1892.) Tho British Medioal Journal is very angry with Lord Onslow. Tho particular cause of tho Journal's wrath is that our lata Governor hns absolutely dared to testify to the value of remedies whose composition is not detailed in the British Pharmacopoeia. Tho wrath is expressed as follows:—"We see with regret. Lord final™ 8 ),nm»W,,1„ n„ffin,r ni»i<lr .A„- D t remedies by an advertised letter-aa scandalous an abuse of political position and as discreditable a tolly as has been for a long time brought under notice." Poor Lord Onslow I The dyspeptic diatribe abovo quoted owes its existence, no doubt, to the fact that Lord Oiiblow, having found virtue in some of tho Maori herbal remodies prepared by Mother Aubert, actually had the courage to say so in print. Why tho British Medical Journnl should deem such testimony a high offence, and, judging by the strength of tho language it uses, an almost criminal misdemeanour, 1 totally fail to see, savo that tho average medical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which does not proceed from recognised red-taped ources, 'Twaa ever thus with the medicos. Almost every new advance made in modical science has been bitterly attacked as " quackery" when it; appeared, every new thinker denounced as a madman or worse, and every formula not hallmarked by the " Lancet" and " British Medical Journal" as a dangerous innovation. Personally, while not having the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Kempthome, 1 oan sympathise with them affli Lord Onslow in seeing tho Maori Remidies denounced as "quack remedies." Only one of those same " quack remedies" do I know, and that •'Karana" to wit, which as a " real good thing " 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 he would never have penned ao spiteful a paragraph. As however, the " Maori Remedies " •'quack and secret "though thoy be—are reported to be selling like the proverbial "hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kempthome is likely to worry about the wrath of tho ' British Medical Journal." As for Lord Onslow he is at Home, and can fight his own battle.-" Sorutator," in the "New Zealand Mail,' Weekly Hekald , Ar-Bit, 80,1892. A aouthoni paper says;-" What with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold woather, typhoid lever has been driven from the city of Wellington, and the place is now as healthy as any town in New Zealand. No small share of the credit is due to the Rev Mother Mary Joseph Aubert for the production of her unrivalled romedies.' 1 And as far as we are personally concerned we must say that, when any one of our staff is affected, no matter from what cause, even from alcoholio poisoning, we pour into him a bottle of Marupa, when restoration to a normal condition takes place at unco.
