Herbs and Medicines
Description
Mr. Jones's pneumonia was cured with a mustard plaster. Susie fell and cut herself badly so her mother made a temporary scab using flour to stop the bleeding. Mrs. Wright sat her baby in a bath with cornstarch to relieve diaper rash. This half-day workshop with the settlement's medicine lady will give you a wealth of knowledge. Using common household ingredients, herbs from the garden, or native plants growing along the roadways, you will make salves, poultices, and teas sure to cure the ailments of any family.
