बावले आदमी, बावले कुत्ते, बावले गीदड़, बावले बन्दर आदि तो सबने देखे सुने होंगे, परन्तु 'बावली घास' से बहुत कम लोग परिचित हैं।

The summary

लेखक अपने पिता पं० नाथूराम शंकर शर्माके जीवनकी एक सत्य घटना सुनाता है। अत्यधिक चाय पीनेसे उन्हें भयंकर रक्तार्श हो गया; वैद्य, डाक्टर और जर्राह सब हार गए। अन्तमें 'बावली घास' नामक एक साधारण वनस्पतिसे वे पूर्ण स्वस्थ हो गए। लेखक प्रकृतिकी छिपी विभूतियोंकी महिमा बताते हुए इस घासके प्रचारका उल्लेख करता है।
