1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. In some respects we find the body physical at least holding its own. Too much ENERGY in activities, as we find, is expended by the body. For the better PHYSICAL conditions the body should REST more, and build up the vitality of the system; for, with the overcoming of those tendencies in the mucus membranes of the stomach itself, there becomes - with the taxation - a differentiation in the ASSIMILATION OF the system, so that - without proper digestive measures - the system attempts to use, as it were, IN its building, too much RAW materials; so that the body runs on a close margin of nerve energy. This closes much of the activities that should be for the clarification of the blood stream proper THROUGH the lungs. While there are not seen ANY of those conditions, or BACILLI, that would be termed even that of forming for those of choking, or activity in the lung cells, there IS congestion - and THIS causes the temperature to be raised through the hepatics, and naturally causes weakness, debilitation, and one working with the other is bad. No ulcerations in stomach; no even attack in lung - but CONGESTION - especially in the lower left lung, see? This should need the building up by REST, AIR, SUNSHINE, coarse food, and that that GIVES strength, vigor, vitality. Plenty of tomato juice, plenty of deep breathing that would carry the Balsam of Pine - either in the open or that that may be made in those inhalants. THESE would be the most beneficial. Keep the manipulations, for THESE keep the vitality of the system.
2. In the diets, these would be the rougher or plenty of corn bread, buttermilk, meats - that are ASSIMILATED easily; that is, as of liver, tripe, or OILS that assimilate - these would be the better for the system. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Are the osteopathic treatments given properly? (A) The body almost wholly LIVES on the coordination

created by same! THESE are good - for without the coordination created by the manipulations, these WOULD localize.
4. (Q) Is general condition better or worse than when first reading was given? (A) The GENERAL condition is BETTER, see - BUT the BODY, in its changes, is OVERTAXING itself, see, FOR its strength and vitality!
5. (Q) Does she have what is termed mucus colitis? (A) This may be termed as the condition, but it is not a TRUE condition of same. The super-acidity has been of long standing, through the position and the CONDITIONS as have existed. This has been aided materially by the changes as has been wrought in the system. These, of course, must be kept more ALKALIN as the system builds up - but, with the changes you see, as has been outlined - that outside, in the open, and roughing it, THIS NATURALLY changes ALL the whole system, see?
6. That is all the questions regarding this body.
7. We are through with this reading.
