MR BOOTH'S GOLDEN REMEDY. TO THE EDITOR.
Sir,—A letter iv your issue of 18th inst. signed G. B. Warburton, Timaru, makes bitter complaint; of a remark of mine regarding the secrecy of the ingredients of my Golden Remedy for the liquor habit. In reply, permit me to inform that apparently much-injured gentleman that I never said, or insinuated that the chemists of New Zealand could not be trusted to compound my remecty, neither did I suggest that the chemists of New Zealand, if my secret were revealed and made public, would adulterate the Golden Remedy. What 1 did say was that the medicine was jiu expensive oue to manufacture ; therefore it would be all the more a temptation, to the unscrupulous to adulterate it.
As for Mr Warburtou's eoutention that the doctors are quite as anxious to do away with the drink and drinking as myself, I can only smile a very big smile. Why, Sir, if there was no strong drink in this country the doctors' occupation, like Othello's, would be gone, and their number would rapidly diminish and grow beautifully less.—l am, &0.,
R. T. Booth, Managing Director. Ashburton, October 19.
