"I'm sure she paid a fabulous price for it in Paris, and it's exactly like one I ordered on Tuesday." The details of the rest of this conversation may be omitted. That Honora was forgiven, and Mrs. Dallam's spirits restored may be inferred from her final remark. "My dear, what do you think of Sid and Howard making twenty thousand dollars apiece in Sassafras Copper? Isn't it too lovely!
They are traders of various sorts men of sugar, soap, and sassafras Macintoshes, molasses, mouse-traps train-oil and tabinets. They have, however, half an acre of agricultural absurdity, divided into meadow and tillage, near the harbour, and they talk bucolic all the way. Blindfold them all, and set them loose, and you will catch them groping their way down Dame-street in half an hour.
The next day our hero, having hired a capital saddle-horse, a little the worse for age, was finding his way eastward along the sandy roads. The country was full of color; the sassafras and gum trees and oaks were all ablaze with red and yellow.
That helped to give us a strong clue, and we knew we were on the right track up here near old Sassafras Swamp. Next time you're chicken hungry, Hen, button up your pockets; you never know what's going to happen these days." Hen turned fiery red, and then laughed in a confused fashion.
"In Bright's disease, the mumia of the afflicted should be planted at 1 a.m., with a cutting of sassafras, after the latter has been slept on, for one whole night, by the sufferer. As soon as the sassafras begins to rot, the patient will be cured. "In dropsy, place a hare, that has been strangled, over the diseased portion of the body, and let it remain there for one hour.
In one wild moment all her shadows seemed to clear. "Sassafras!" she cried. And her father's deep gray eyes beamed down upon her "You've sure guessed right, little gal," he said. "An' I hope it was dollar time." At that instant Jeff thrust his way through the crowd, and the warmth of his smile flooded the girl's heart with happiness.
There were other things which age and long bondage in the pocket had brought to such passes that one could scarcely determine their identities. From all this Jerome selected one undoubted treasure a great jagged cut of sassafras root. It had been nicely scraped, too, and looked white and clean. "Here," said Jerome. "Don't you want it?" asked Lucina, shyly.
Give a purge, and if the stomach be oppressed with any crude matter relieve it by emetics and by sudorifics of lignum sanctum and sassafras taken twenty days consecutively, which dry up the superfluous moisture, and consequently suppress the cause of the disease. The air should be hot and dry, and her diet hot and attenuating.
The whirlwind swept it, the treetops snapped off. "Attention!" The grey soldiers were glad to hear the word. "Forward! March!" They were blithe to hear the order and to leave the wood. They moved out into old fields, grown with sedge and sassafras, here and there dwarf pines. Apparently the cannon had lost them; at any rate for a time the firing ceased.
A borderman lived under the green tree-tops, and, therefore, all the nodding branches of sassafras and laurel, the grassy slopes and rocky cliffs, the stately ash trees, kingly oaks and dark, mystic pines, together with the creatures that dwelt among them, save his deadly red-skinned foes, he loved. Other affection as close and true as this, he had not known.
