PMMO AND WE MEDICOS. WHAT THE PEESS BAYS. TYPOGRAPHICAL TESTIMONY, THE EDITORS FOK ONOE AGEEE, (New Zealand Times, May 11), 1892.) The British Medical Journal is very angry with Lord Onslow.' The particular cause of the Journal's wrath jb that our late Governor has absolutely dared to toßtify to the value of remedies whoso composition is not detailed in tho British Pharmacopoeia.. The wrath is esprcssed as follows:—"We see with roarer. Lord Obblow shamelessly puffing quack secret remedies by an advertised letter— a« scandalous an abuso of political position and as discreditable a tolly as has been for a long time brought under notico." Poor Lord Onslow I The 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 bo in print Why the British Medical Journal should dcom Buch teati. mony a high offence, and, judging by the strength of the language it uses, an almost criminal misdemeanour, 1 totally fail to see,, save: that the average medical mind is fanatically opposed to any medical innovation which does not 1 proceed ..from recognised red-taped

Twas ever thus with the medicos. Al. moat every new advance made in medical science has been bitterly attacked as " quackery" when it appeared, overy new thinker denounced as a inudman or (torae, and every formula not hallinarkod by the " Lancet" and " British Medical Journal" m a daugerouß inno. vation. Personally, while not having the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with either' Mother Aubert or Mr Kerap« thorne, I can sympathise with them and Lord Onslow in seeing the Maori Remidies denounced as " quack remedies.', Only one of (those same " quack remo' dies" do I kuow, and that '"Karana" to wit, which as a " real good thing" for a man with a liver, I wuuld. cordially recommend to the editor of the B.M, J, Be appears to need it sadly,: for the comniouand domestio and "recognised" podophyllum has evidently been of no sorvice to him, otherwise he would never however, the " Maori Remedieu " •'quack and secret "though they be—are reported to be Belling Jike the pro> verbial " hot cakes," neither Mother Aubert nor Mr Kempthorne is likely to worry about the wrath of the' British Medical Journal," Ab for Lord Onslow he is at Rome, and can fight his own battle.-" Scrutator," in tho' New Zealand Mail,'

Weekly Herald, Aphu, 30,1892. A Eouthern paper says:—" What with Marupa, Karana, Paramo, Natanata and cold weather, typhoid levor has been driven from the oity of Wellington, and inKew Zealand. Mo Bmall share of the credit is due to the fiev Mother Mary Josoph Aubert for the production of her unrivalled romedies." And as far as we are personally concerned * we must say that, when any one of our staff is aflected, no matter from what cause, even from'alcoholic poisoning, we pour into him a bottle of Marupa, when restoration to a normal condition takes place atonce.
