    Warts.
    The following are the cures for warts which can be made by any body. Ten straws are got one is thrown away across the right shoulder and the other nine are left safely away and by the time the straws are rotten the warts are gone. There is also another cure for warts. If accidentally a person meets water in a stone and washes the warts three times in the stone it is said that the warts will leave.
