Two Good Hints
Dear Aunt Daisy, Here is a very good recipe for ginger beer made with compressed yeast. I also enclose a method of curing warts as I feel sure many listeners would be glad of it. I have never known it to fail and have given it to many people, all of whom have been delighted with the results, GINGER BEER: 1 Ib. sugar, 1 gallon ‘warm water, 1 teaspoon lemon essence, 1 teaspoon compressed yeast, 1 dessertspoon ground ginger. Stir sugar and ginger in water until sugar is dissolved. Add lemon essence and stir again. Lastly mix in yeast which has been well blended with a little water. Strain and bottle, Cork very tightly. Ready for use in a few days. CURE FOR WARTS: Soak some orange peel in vinegar until well saturated-the longer the better. Apply a small piece to wart, pith side down, and bandage, Repeat until wart is dead, and slowly falls off.
