- In olden times people used to make rush candles. They made twelve on the sixth of January in honour of the twelve apostles. At night the people lit the twelve candles and said the rosary.
They saved whatever ashes were left over when the candles were burned out.
Any time a person belonging to the house had a stone-bruise they boiled sweet milk and put some of the ashes into it. When the milk was boiled they poured it on the stone bruise and it became better very soon. - Get a sewing needle, and put it through the dog's ear. After a day the dog will get better.
A cure for a dog with distemper.
Get a piece of copper wire. Then get a sharp knife and cut a little hole in the dog's neck and put the copper wire in it. Afterwards the dog will get better.- Collector
