Title: A Cure for Pneumonia
Categories:
Yield: 1 Cure
Take 6-10 onions, according to size and chop fine.
Put in a skillet over a hot fire. Then add about
the same quantity of rye meal and vinegar, enough
to make a thick paste. In the meantime, stir it
thoroughly, letting it simmer 5-10 minutes. Then
put it in a cotton bag large enough to cover the
lungs, and apply to the chest as hot as the
patient can bear. When this gets cool, apply
another and thus continue by reheating the
poultices, and in a few hours the patient will be
out of danger. this simple remedy has never failed
in this too often fatal malady. Usually four
applications will do, but continue always until
perspiration starts freely from the chest.
