The British Medical Journal is very angry with Lord Onslow. Tho particular cause of the Journal's wrath is that our lata Governor has absolutely dared to testify to tho value of remedies whose composition is not detailed m the British Pharmacopoeia'. Tho wrath is espressed as follows:—"We see" with regret Lord Onslow shamelessly puffing quack secret remedies by an advertised letter—as scandalous an abuse of political position and as discreditable a folly as has been for a long time brought under notlco." r' n Lord Onslow I The dyspaptio diatribe abovo quoted owes its exißtonce, no doubt, to tho fact that Lord Onslow, having found virtuo in Borne of the Maori herbal romodies prepared Ja Mother Aubert, actually had the courap 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 sco, savo that the nvorage medical mind is fanatically opposed tc any medical innovation which does nol proceed from recognised rod-taped

'Twas ever thus with the medicos. Al. most every new advance made iri medical science has been bitterly attacked as "quackery" whon it appeared, ovory new thinker denounced as a madman or wotßo, and every formula not hall, marked by the " Lancet" aud " British Medical Journal" as a dangerous innovation. Personally, whilo not having tho pleasure of a personal acquaintance with either Mother Aubert or Mr Kemp* thorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow m seeing the Maori ficmldios denounced as " quack remodics, 1 Only one of .those Bame " quack reme dies" do I know, and that ■'Karana l to wit, winch as a " real good thing' for a man with a liver, T would cordially recommend to tho editor of tho B.M.J, Ho appears to need it Badly, for th)' common and domestio and "recoqniseqjlJ,, pndophyllin has evidently, been of no Bervice to him, otherwiso he would nevor have penned so spiteful a paragraph, Ashowever, the " Maori Romedies " •'quackandseorot "though thoy heare reported to be selling liko tho pre verbial "hot cakes," neither Mother; Aubert nor Mr Kempthomo is likely to worry about tho wrath 6f the' British Medical Journal." Ab for Lord Onslow he is at Homo, and can fight' his own battle,-" Borutator," in the' New Zea^ land Mail,' Weekly Herald, Amil 30,1892. A southern paper says:—" What with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid fovor hns .been driven from tho city of Wellington; and the place is now as healthy as any town in Now Zealand, No email share of the credit is due to tho Rev Mother Mary, Joaoph 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, ovon from alcoholic poisoning, wo poiir into him a bottle of Marupa, when restoration to a normal condition takes place atonce. \B.
