Elder root when boiled and the water drank is supposed to cure rheumatism. - Local Cures
Running worm
The cure of running worm is a cure the seventh son of a family has, and which nobody else can have. It has no effect unless applied by him.
Year by year, science is advancing and scarcely a year elapses but one or other of our scientists invent new cures to releive some of the illness and suffering of the world. So many and varied are the cures of long ago that it would be impossible to relate all of them but it is the firm belief of the old people that the scientists of to-day have received their inspirations from the cures of yesterday.- Collector
