  2. Local Cures

    Share Share Post
    An old cure for the measles was to drink hot stout. The cure for warts was to put stones into a purse belonging to the person who had the warts and throw the purse at a cross-roads.
    A cure for the sting of a wasp was to rub a raw onion to the part that was stung.
