Pursue a wild bull frog thirteen miles, carefully gathering the hops. Then add:
Ten gallons pickle brine
Two quarts shellac
One bar home-made soap
One pint sweet spirits of nitre.
Boil mixture three weeks, then strain through an I. W. W. sock to prevent mixture from working. Bottle and add one jackass to each pint to give it the proper kick.

Some son of a gun left open a switch and it piled them ten cars high.”
