   Cures for warts= There is a whole lot of cures for warts. One of these is to get the gizzard of a hen and to rub it on the warts. You were then to hide it and never look for it and when it would decay your warts would decay. Others were to do the same with a piece of bacon, plaited rushes or a snail. Another cure was to cut a potato in half and rub it on the warts and to bury it. Another was to get ten stones and to rub them on the warts. You were then to throw one away and parcel the remaining nine and leave it in the middle of the road and to come back in an hour and if your parcel was away your warts would go away. Of course the more tempting-looking you made the parcel, the quicker it went away. There is a hole of water up at Rooskey and it is said that if you put some of the water in it on your warts they will go away. Another was if you come to a hole of water in a rock and you not to be looking for it and put some of the water on your warts.
   Cures for sties= One of the cures for sties is to get ten gooseberry gags and rub them on the sties. You are then to throw the tenth away. Another is to point a cat's tail to your eye nine times.
   cures for toothache= If you are down at a graveyard when people are digging a grave and you pull one of the teeth out of one of the skulls and keep it, you will never have toothache. Another is to eat a St. John's nut.
