To protect your home from the ravages of a devastating fire, place some mistletoein
a blue drawstring bag, douse it thoroughly with cold, clear water, & then immediately
hang it in the "heart" of the house - where you & your family spend most of your
time. 

Or, light a piece of wood & burn to ash. Wet the ashes, let them dry, & hang in a
blue drawstring bag. It is done.
