    There is cures for warts. There is one cure and I will tell you it. If you have a wart on your foot and your are walking the fields and if you get water in a stone and rub it on the wart it will cure it.
    Another cure there is, if a dog bits you and you have no cure for it but if you pull three hairs out of the dog's tail and rub it acroos the bite they say it will get better. after that.
