Toothache

Pow-Wows, or Long Lost Friend, by John George Hoffman, [1820], at sacred-texts.com

A GOOD REMEDY FOR THE TOOTHACHE.

Stir the sore tooth with a needle until it draws blood; then take a thread and soak it with this blood. Then take vinegar and flour, mix them well so as to form a paste and spread it on a rag, then wrap this rag around the root of an apple-tree, and tie it very close with the above thread, after which the root must be well covered with ground.
