1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We have had this before, you see. Now, we find there are changes in the physical conditions existent in the body. More produced by the state of the nerves of the body than by other physical effects. For, with depletion in nerve resistance, we find the effect as produced on same in the nerve reaction produces distresses in the body through the mental reaction to same. While at the present time, now, we find conditions somewhat improved from that as has been recently in the body, still the effects of this are shown in the nerve reaction in the body. This is especially shown in the sensory nervous system and in those portions of same that cause the most distress in the body - the ear and the eye.
2. The condition as we find in ear, as has often been given, while the general condition in the constitutional functioning of system is on the improve, the body improves in this manner when the vibrations from electrical forces are correct [in the Wet Cell Appliance] and carry the nerve vibration along those channels that are beginning to show the effect of same in system. With the change in the nerve reaction through stress on the system, and the depletion of nerve energy, then the mental forces, through their retraction to same, bring distress to both auditory and visionary functioning of the sensory organism. Hence the distresses as have been caused in mental over conditions in change produced in vision and in the necessity of change in glasses for the eye. We find this produces mental worry and deterioration in the functioning of physical forces in the sensory organism.
3. The body will find the greater relief by having manipulations through OSTEOPATHIC forces that will relax the nerve system to the extent that the vibrations as created through the nerve tension will be relieved; and by the building up of the general system, through diet, through exercises necessary for physical equilibrium; and by keeping those vibrations as have been set at first for the body to improve in auditory forces [Wet Cell Appliance].

4. Do not merely take adjustments [chiropractically, as have in the past been given]. Take those vibrations of the deep manipulation, osteopathically given, correcting the vibrations as found, as has been given, for the auditory forces.
5. Keep the mental equilibrium as near as possible to that condition wherein the physical will respond to that set for the system to build to; remembering ever that the physical reactions are found in the mental contribution toward same - that is, the physical reaction comes from mental thought when controlling same.
6. So, follow in those conditions as have been set for the body, [147].
7. (Q) Are the glasses the body now has correct? (A) Correct, when the mental and the physical, through the nerve strain, are relaxed, or the body through manipulation, OSTEOPATHICALLY, may be so set that the glasses as now prepared will reach the necessary vibrations for vision without strain.
8. (Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given? (A) At least twice each week.
9. (Q) How long should the body continue the osteopathic treatments? (A) As long as necessary to bring correct equilibrium.
10. (Q) Why has the hearing seemed to grow steadily worse? (A) As given.
11. (Q) Should the body use the battery? (A) Just given that it should.
12. (Q) What should the diet be for this body? (A) This has been given. Follow that.
13. (Q) What exercise should the body use? (A) That exercise sufficient to keep the physical equilibrium. Walking, working, or those exercises in opposition to those used in regular work. Relaxations, you see. In the open as much as possible.
14. We are through for the present.
