HICCUP
TO CURE A CASE OF THE HICCUPS, DRINK A GLASS OF BEER THROUGH A PIECE
OF CLOTH, WITHOUT STOPPING FOR BREATH.
Submitter comment:
THE INFORMANT SAID HIS "OLD MAN" USED TO DO THIS WHEN THE INFORMANT
WAS A BOY.
HIS MOTHER HOWEVER FROWNED UPON THIS PRACTICE
BECAUSE HIS FATHER WOULD NEVER STOP AT JUST ONE GLASS.
