It's powerful good fur sterricks. Luk at it! See the face av a woman in sterricks wid her hayer flyin' an' her jaw a-droppin'. I moind the toime Larry's little gurrl didn't want to go to her 'place' an' hed sterricks. They jest sent fur me an' I brung along a Sterrick-root. First, I sez, sez I, 'Get me some b'ilin' wather, an' I made tay an' give it to her b'ilin' hot.

In about an hour comes home my poor niece, almost in high sterricks with joy, smiling and sobbing.
