WHAT THE jfRESS HAYS. TYPOGRAPBIOAL TESTIMONY. THE EDITORS FOK ONOE AGREE. (New Zealand Times, May 14, 1592.) Tlio British Medioal Journal is Tory angry with Lord Onslow. The particular causo of the Journal's wrath ia that our lato Governor has absolutely dared to testify to tho value of remedies whoso composition ia not detailed in tho British Pharmacopoeia, The wrath is eipresaed as follows"Wo Bee with regret! Lord Onslow shamelessly puffing quack seoret remedies by an advertised letter-as scandalous an abuse of political position and as discreditable a folly as has been for & long time brought under notice." Poor Lord Onslow I Tho dyspeptic diatribe abovo quoted oweß its existence, no doubt, to the fact that Lord Onslow, having found virtue in somo of the Maori Jierbal remedies prepared by Mother Aubart, actually had the courage' to aay ao in print. Why the British Medical Journal should deem such testimony a hinh ofl'enco, and, judging by the strength of the language it uses, an almost orimiual misdemeanour, 1 totally fail to see, save that the average modical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which doos not proceed from recognised red-taped Bources.

'Twas ever thus with the medicos, Almost every new advance made in medi-, cal science has been bittorly. 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 daußoroua irinovntion, Personally, while not haviup the pleasure of .a personal acquaintance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Kemptborne, 1 can sympathise .with them and Lord Onslow in saeiuß the Maori Remidioi denounced as " quack remedies.'' Only one of those same " quack reine i dies" d» I know, and that •' Karana'' to wit, which as a " real good thing 1 for a man with a liver, I would cordially

recommond to the editor of the B.M.J, Ho appears to need it sadly, for the oommon and domestic and "recognised" podophyllin has evidently been uf no service to him, otherwise lio would novor have penned so spiteful a paragraph. At howover, the "Maori Remedies"— •'quackandsecrot "though they be—are reported to be selling like, the, pro« verbial "hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kompthorne iB likely to worry about tho wrath of the 1 British Medical Journal." Ab for Lord Onslow he is at Home, and can fight his own' battle.—" Sorututor," in tho ' New Zenland Mail,' Weekly Hebald, Aran, 30,1892. A southern paper Bays What, with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid lever has been driven from tho city of Wellington, and the place is now as healthy as any town in Now Zealand. No small share of the credit is duo to tho Rev Mother Mary Joaeph Aubert for the production of her unrivalled remedies." And as far as we are personally concerned wo must Bay that, when any one of our staff is affeo ted, no matter from what cause, oven from alcoholto poisoning, we pour into him a bottlo of Marupa, when restoration to a normal oondition takes placo atonce.PHILIP JAMES,
