Honey, lemon and homemade liquor. My daddy swore by this. Also told of a
'Sugar Tit' for teething babies. Take a sugar cube, tie in a linen hankie
and soak in the same liquor. Give to a baby to chew on while teething.

My kids' pediatrician used to recommend the following
to deal with teething:

Pour a jigger of whiskey.
Rub some on the child's gums with your finger.
Drink the rest yourself.

He swore it worked every time.
