    Share Share Post
    When the babies used to get gracecollar in the tongue the cure they had for it was to get a white gander and leave him blow his breath in to the child's mouth for nine mornings.
    To cure kidney trouble.
    The blossoms and young shoots of broom boiled in water for about three hours. The contents strained and mixed with cream of Tratar and bottled. A glass of this medicine drank every morning after breakfast cures the patient as the medicine is very strong. a half glass of whiskey is added to every pint bottle. This has been known to cure people who had tried all the medical doctors in Kerry.
