   The best cure for a sore throat is to roast salt and put it in your stocking and tie it around your neck when you are going to bed at night.
   An old cure for a pain in the stomach was to put new milk in a burner on the fire and put ginger in the milk and not let it come to a boil and drink it while it is hot.
   Hot butter milk and sugar is a very old cure for a cough. It should be put down on the fire in a burner and let come to a boil. It should be taken off the fire then and strained. When it is strained it is put back into the burner and sugar put on it. Then it is put back into the burner and put on the fire again until it boils.
   If you have warts on your hands the best cure is to find a snail when you are not looking for one. When you get the snail you should make the sign of the cross on the wart with him. Then you should hang the snail on a white thorn bush and according as the snail is dying the wart is dying away.
