To Cure a Sore Throat

Pour a pint of boiling water upon twenty or thirty leaves of common Sage.
Let the infusion stand for half an hour. Add Vinegar sufficient to make it moderately acid and honey according to taste.
It must be used several times a day.

Another excellent remedy is a strong solution of salt and water. Gargle every hour.

A Wet Towel worn on the throat at night will assist in effecting a cure.
