The post below, [What is this?, by Super99] got me to thinking. The old timers used to wad up a small bunch of elderberry leaves and carry the wad in one of their front pockets when they were bothered by being galled in their crotch area. They swore that it worked - I never have had that problem, so I have no personal experience, but one of the laborers that I worked with on an asphalt resurfacing job was burned up with it so bad that he was walking bowlegged. I told him about the so-called cure. They grow everywhere around here, and pretty soon he had a wad in his pocket. A couple of days later he told me that it worked so good that his wife was sewing up little bags of elderberry leaves for him to carry in his pocket.
My mind always goes to - how in the world did someone figure out that carrying a wad of elderberry leaves in your pocket would have any benefits of any kind?
