    Bielding
    A cure for the bielding is to let a dog lick it and it will go away. Then you will never take a bielding in that part of your body again.
    Pain in Side
    If you take a pain in side when you are running along the road lift a stone and spit on it. Then put it back in its place and you will be cured.
