    When you have a hiccough take sugar or ten mouthfulls of water to cure it.
    If you have warts get a small piece of bacon when nobody is watching you. Rub it to the wart and say, "In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost" three times. Then bury the piece of bacon in the ground and the warts will go away.
