   A woman lived long ago who was always getting a toothache. She went to a witch for a cure. The witch gave her a note and told her not to open it. while she obeyed this order she did not get the tooth-ache. At last she got curious about the note and she liked to know what was in it. She took it to the Priest to read it for her, and this was what was written in it. "Good-bye, toothache, fare thee well, we'll meet no more till we'll meet in hell"
