My daughter had several warts on her hands and was able to kill them quickly with lemon juice. She dabbed the warts with a sliver of lemon three or four times a day, and all of the warts fell off within four days. Four years ago, we heard from another mother whose daughter also had warts: "Years ago, my daughter had eight plantar warts on the bottoms of her feet. She could hardly walk, and I tried everything to no avail. "A friend of mine suggested squeezing fresh lemon juice on them three or four times a day. We had nothing to lose so we tried it. Those warts turned black and fell off so fast she was completely healed within four weeks.

After handling every opponent in his very first wrestling tournament, Brian Eveleth Jr. - then 7 years old, 50 pounds and grappling in sneakers - got the ride of his life. After Eveleth's hand was raised, Severna Park Green Hornets coach Frank Spiegel hoisted him atop his shoulder and paraded him around the mat. Eveleth flashed a wide smile that was brighter than a brand-new light bulb. It turned out to be the start of an outstanding run for the Eveleth family on the mat. Brian, now 36, and younger brothers Jeff (27)
