    Cures
    A cure for a toothache is to put some mustard in the hole of a tooth.
    To draw a sting of a bee or a wasp the best thing to do is to chew a dock-leaf and put it on the sting with a bandage on it.
    To stop your nose from bleeding put a cold stone on your forehead.
    To cure a sprain put it under the tap and let water flow on it.
