Entry 10188

Volume 5 · printed page 3963–3964 · Memphis, Tenn.

For success in business either at home or outside the house, bathe with 3 ingredients: bluestone, saltpeter and sugar. Or else bathe with blueing and sugar. Either bath is for personal protection. At place of business mop up with Red Seal Lye and burn brimstone as a purification. But before leaving home for work or opening the house for business, make wishes and light a yellow candle. [Did the maker of this rite realize that in some place during the late Middle Ages prostitutes legally had to wear yellow?]

I don't know anything about his life but I know you sets a yellow light to him and make your wish and you get it. (His name is "Jul".

(You mean Jule.)

Yes, sir.
