1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, the abnormal conditions as we find in this body have to do with the organs themselves in their functioning, produced by specific conditions, and the effect this produces in the circulation. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body here, Mrs. [58], we are speaking of: Through the blood supply we find the red blood rather of an impoverished nature, being more abundant in the white than normal, hence the condition that arises in the body of temperature at times when the system is attempting to create more of the warriors in the body or blood to combat with the condition throughout the system, the liver becoming congested with these bacilli to be thrown off from the system raises a high hepatic circulation, then temperature follows in the body. At the present time, now, we do not find the body has temperature, the temperature being 98.1, the heart beat being 79, the respiration being
2. The nerve forces in the body, we find the brain force is very good. The nerves of the cerebrospinal system are very good. The co-ordination between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal is very good. Those between the cerebrospinal, sympathetic and sensory organism are not always of a perfect coordinating nature, hence the effect as produced over the organs of the sensory system at times. The condition as we find through the organs themselves, we find that through the head, that is, the lower portion, through the tonsils, thyroid glands, the upper portion of the tracchea, and through the bronchials, there is a higher or more amount of circulation than is normal, but this is being produced by the condition that exists through the lungs themselves proper, where the clarification of the blood force takes place. The cells in the lungs themselves at present through the conditions under which the body has been subjugated is now closing the bacillus that has been attacked to the tissue itself, and may be warded off entirely by following specific lines, both through pathological and hygienic directions or usage of the body; not necessarily in the same altitude as the body is at

present. It is tending to be rather hard on the body, both mentally, as well as physical forces. Those cells about the right side are the ones to be the most careful of.
3. The condition we find through the digestive tract and organs shows only a reflex from the condition of the blood itself and of the weakened condition of the system to meet the resistive forces in the system itself, hence the condition at times in the lower end of the stomach when there is an excess of the leukocite forces created within the system by the natural inclination of the body or entity to ward off the cell force from destruction from within.
4. The liver presents rather the plethora condition than an atrophy, for the full expansion of the cells of the liver itself through both lobes give an expression of the condition in the system. The lower end of the digestive tract and the whole hepatic circulation with the kidneys show the effect of the system attempting to keep the balance of the eliminating system intact, and gives the expression of the co-ordinating forces between the cerebrospinal nervous energy and the sympathetics in their attempt to keep the balance within the system, though through the discharge from the kidneys the effect of the temperature shows on the system itself and causes some inconvenience to the body in the passage through the system of the elements to be eliminated through these channels.
5. The whole system as a general condition presents a better and more formidable condition to combat with the bacilli or bacteria within the body. With these added to the system and with the care to the body of plenty of oxygen for the system we would find we would be able to eliminate these conditions from the system: Take these into the system as medicinal properties: Only six may be prepared at once and only two of these would be taken each day, one in mornings, the other in evenings; liquids, but best prepared in capsule and taken in that way; the dose would be for each capsule: Eucalyptus..............1 minim, Heroin...............1/22 grain, Rectified oil of Pine...1 minim.
6. The body should have this - inhale the gases from this into the lungs themselves:
7. To a three-gallon container, one charred on the inside, we would add one gallon of PURE APPLE BRANDY and one ounce of BENZOSOL. This would be kept close to heat, so that gases would form in the space above in the container. This would be corked tight, but arranged so that a tube might be fitted over or in the container, and the gases each day

inhaled into the lungs through the mouth.
8. This will also assist the conditions in the nostrils through the glands back of the nose. You see, there is trouble here at times of a catarrhal condition arising from that in the lungs themselves.
9. Let the diet be those that clarify the system than building, that is be of a higher vibration - nuts, charcoal and honey, and such. Do that. We will find we will bring this body, Mrs. [58], to its normal condition again.
10. (Q) Mr. Cayce, to what place and climate would it be most satisfactory for this body to go for further treatment? (A) One not so high in altitude, but one that is not of a damp climate.
11. (Q) Mr. Cayce, how long should it take this body to respond to this treatment? (A) From the time the medicinal properties are taken. The second week there will be no more rise of temperature to the body, and in from ten to twelve weeks we will have so closed the cells and purified the blood with these inhalations and medicinal properties as to have the body so that with the proper care it will resist these conditions.
12. (Q) Mr. Cayce, to what place and climate in Alabama, or near Alabama, would it be most satisfactory for this body to go for further treatments? (A) We would say here, or San Antonio, Texas, or Skyland, North Carolina, the closest places here to Alabama.
13. (Q) Will the remedy that you have given be effective if it remains at the present place? (A) If it could be given in the present place, yes.
14. (Q) Can this treatment be given where she is now? (A) Not with as much ease as it would be in either of these other places that we have given. If this treatment was given for some two weeks, the body might be removed to Alabama in any clime, so it is kept in the open. Follow as we have given if we would bring the best to this body, Mrs. [58]. We are through.
