- Cures
Penny leaves boiled down in cream, skimmed and strained and bottled is a sure relief and healer for burns and scalds.
Rob leaf cut up and moistened in the mouth to form a poultice and applied to a bad cut has great healing effects. Goose grease is excellent for massaging painful or stiff joints or muscles. Washing soda when melted down is very good for corns or warts.- Collector
