PMMO AND THE MEDICOS. WHAT THE jfBESS BAYS. TYPOGRAPHICAL TESTIMONY. THE EDITORS FOB ONCE AGBEE. (Nao Ztahnd Timts, May H, 1892.) Tho British Medical Journal ib very angry with Lord Onslow. The particular cause of the Journal's wrath is that our late Governor ha» absolutely dared to testify to the value of remedies whose composition is not detailed In the British Pharmacopeia. Tho wrath is espressed as follows:—"We see with regret. Lord Oublow shamelessly puffin); quack secret remedies by an advertised letter—as 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 Tho dyspeptic diatribe above quoted owes its existence, no doubt, to tho fact that Lord Onslow, having found virtue in some of the Maori herbal remedies 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, I totally fail to see, save that the average medical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which does not proceed from recognised rod-taped
'Twas ever thus with the medicos. Almost evory new ndvunco made in medical eciouce has been bitterly attacked as "quackery" when it appeared, every new thinker denounced as n madman or worse, and every formula not hallmarked by the " Lancet" and " British MedicalJoutnal" nsa 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 Unslow-un seeing the Maori Bemidien denounced as "quack remedies. 1 Only one of same " quack reme' dies" du I know, and that ''Katana" to wit, which as a " real good thing" for a man with a liver, I would cordially recommend to the editor of the B.MJ, He appears to need it sadly, for the common and domestic and "recognised" podophyllin has evidently beeu of no sorvico to him, otherwiso ho would never have penned so spiteful a paragraph, As however, the " Maori Remedies " •'quack and secret "though they boare reported to bo selling like tite proverbial " hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kempthorne is likely to worry about the wrath of the' British Medical Journal." As for Lord Onslow lie is at Home, and can fight his own battle,-" Bortttator," in the' New Zealand Mail,' Weekw Hbram, Am& 30,1802, A southern paper Buys;—" What with Marupa, Karaua, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid lever has beeu driven from the city of Wellington, and the place is now as healthy as any town in New Zealand. No small share of the oredit is due to the Bcv Mothor Mary Joseph Aubett for the production of her unrivalled remedies.'' 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, oven front alcoholic poisoning, we pour into him a bottle of Marupa, when restoration to a normal condition takes place atonoe.
