warts I" CALCULATED the oracle TO the
presiding member of the oysier-cracker
convention in Main street grocery store
in Lewiston, Saturday. ATve had 'em.
Yes. sir. I've had 'em but charmed 'em
awav. After this statement the mem
ber, II tl,c convention fell into silence,
considering the departed warty days Of
youth. II a man will write down the
number Of warts that he has on his hand
on the hat baud Of tramp, without the
tramp knowing it, the latter will carry
the warts away with him, suggested
George William, the elderly oracle on
warts, after long silence. Warts used
TO give in, he continued, "when you
cut one notch on green elder stick for
every wart you had, and then rub the
stick on each wart, and then buried it
in the barnyard till il rots That fixes
'em. Take black snail, rub him on the
warts and then stick him on a thorn bush.
Do this nine successive nights and the
snails and the warts will be dead to-
gether aChalk marks on the stove
funnel used TO fix my warts said the
chairman OF the meeting. Get 'em on
when nobody could . see you and when
they disappeared the warts went too.
This used to got sort of mixed when my
mother saw the chalk marks and wiped
'em off. When used to see n funeral
go 10y unexpectedly. used to rub the
warts up and down and say, warts and
corpses pass away and never more re-
turn That was intended to fix 'om.
"Charming warts was the popular way
in my day, said he minister. +" a man
of elderly mien aud sad features was the
king Of the charmers. l went TO him
surreptitiously one day and he locked
me in tho eyes and said something that
sounded like 'wobbley, gobbley, gum
and lot more of the same interesting
description. I've forgotten whether tho
warts went or not We used to think
that TO take as many pebbles as we had
warts touch them to the excrescences,
sew them in a bag, take them to tho
four corners of the cross roads and throw
the bag over the left shoulder, would do
the business The only bad feature of
this was that il any person should find
the bag and open it, he would reap the
warty treasure of the bag. " Lewiston

with him and his partner and buy tho
Robert f. Lee mine. The mine had been

had been settled and it was only neces-
sary to have 800. 900 to pay off its indebt-

il would take $45, 600 and this would
give me one-third interest. But said |,
