- (continued from previous page)The Toothace
It is said if one who suffers from a tooth-ache was digging a grave and to find skull, and if he would take it in his hand, and pull a tooth out of it with his sore tooth he would never have a tooth-ache again.
- The spinning top is one top which can be made at home. It is made out of a thread spool. One end of the spool is made into a sharp point, and a nail is driven in the point of it, in order to make it spin.
