  1. Cures

    Share Share Post
    A slice of thinly cut bacon put to a wound would cure it. Sugar and soap blended together is good for a bile. Your fasting spit put to a wart would cure it or a snail rubbed to it and hung on a hawthorn bush is also good. If you look through a gold ring it would cure a sty. The cure for a tooth ache is bread soda.
