    The cure for a cold long ago was to make scaltin with meal and buttermilk and to drink it hot
    The cure for a sore throat was roast potatoes crushed in a woolen stocken and tied round the sore throat
    For a headache a half cup of good strong tea
    For a cut in the hands or feet to put a cobweb on the cut and to leave it on it for a night
    For a thorn to get a foxes tongue and leave it on the thorn
