NEW ZEALAND TABLET. TflE religloua orders continue to main tain their reputation as benefactors of society in temporal as well as in spiritual matters.' A new proof of this is furnished In the remedies which have been discovered by the Blstejr Mary Joseph Aubert of the Order of Notre Dame des Missions. Tte good Sister, whose life has been devoted to the instruction of the Maoris, while she has labored successfully at Improving their minds and enlightening their spirits, has not been neglectful of their bodieß. The result Ib a discovery of a series o: medicines manufactured from native trees and plants, and which have been proved ondenlably to be of almost marvellous efficacy. It is to the oredii of the Catholic Church in the colony that odo of ita missionary Sisters brs distinguished herself in this way, probably conferring on the world a benefi- little, If anything, inferior to tbat con 'erred, for example, by the Jesuit Fathers who discovered the curative properties of the Peruvian bark. Noi only suffering humanity but science itself owes a debt to thiß lady, who has made it acquainted with properties of natural produc s, hitherto unsuspected and has enriched the pharmacopoeia. We have, farther, in the matter an instance of how religious devotion i 3 calculated to quicken the faculties and to devolop the best qualities of human nature, filater Mary Joseph iB to be warmly commended for her discoveries, and, ndeed, the community generally may be congratulated on them. STILL IT MOVES. AS a proof that oar colonists have every belief in the " Wealth of New Zealand" in its vegetable kingdom, it Is worthy of note that in the last sixteen weeks thirteen thousand three hundred and eight bottles of our riw ce'ebrated Vegetatist's Medicines have been sold, and three- ourths of this quantity in Weilingto i city alone. Mother Mary Joseph Albert's name is now a household one, and the Remedies are being taken by persons in every sphere of life. Nbw Zealand on produce as reliable remedies for sickness and diseases as any part of the world, and we can go further to say that In its vegetation we believe no country on the face of the globe has been ao bountifully supplied by nature. Why, thpn, should the public ask for and use imported medicines when they can get them as good, if not better, in the country which supports them ! Nature has given ua benefits — let v make the best use of them. The Re Mo ther has just been on a visit to Wellington and brought down a large supply from Jerusalem (on the Wanganui river), and it has been a pleasure to see this lady's face beaming with smiles with the knowledge that her thirty years' assiduons experiments without fee or reward have now the appreciation of the general pnblic. It must indeed be Bald tbat she has proved herself a wonderful woman, toiling on for this length of time with the one motto, " Excelsior." always before her. Many a fond parent during last month has cause to be thankful that such a remedy as Marupa has been offered, as there haa been a very prevalent epidemic of whooping cough, and Its effects on a large number of children have been simply marvellous. fVEALANDIA BOOTS This celebrated brand has STOOD the BEST of 15 YEARS experience, and now Is more popular than ever.
