From my earliest recollection I bad had on my middle linger an old daddy wart, but at the age ntated this had multiplied to 40 or more, one be ivg on my lip and one ou my ciiin. I was considerably worried over my growing family of excrescences, and one day a woodebopper in my fa ther's employ, who acted queeriy, never wearing a hat. for instance, paid that he could take the warts away with him. I was qnite willing to have him try, and he took me off to a quiet spot under a willow tree, fiom which be cut a number of small branches, and these be cnt again into little bits of an inch in length, making a notch in each one, and this notch he set down over each wart, having at last a collection of 40 or more of these little notched sticks. These he put into his pocket, saying that the warts would go away. I conld never say jnst when the prophecy was fulfilled, but within fix weeks there wasn't a wart ' en my face or hands, and there has not been one since that time. What I want to know now, as I did then and the conjurer would not tell me is what did it. I have spoken to many doctors about it. bnt tney merely laugn, as though I was giving them a "pipe talk." and yet the warts went away, and all the medicine I had ever tried on them had no effect whatever.
