1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement and relief of same, and you will answer the questions regarding same that I will ask you.
2. EC: We have the body here - we have had this before, you see.
3. Now, we find while there are some changes in the physical forces of this body from that as we have had here before which have not been for the betterment, had those corrections in the adjustments for the body been carried out we would find quite a different reaction in the system.
4. Now, these are the conditions to be met at the present time:
5. Those corrections as were given as necessary for the betterment of the body, through the adjustments and manipulation along the cerebrospinal system, SHOULD be carried out, for with these will come the better reaction to the whole system and the body will find that the tired dullness as appears often with the body would be relieved, also those conditions wherein congestion shows from time to time through the contraction of the action in the system that governs sympathetically the respiratory system. Hence the inclination for the body to apparently continue to feel irritation in the throat and bronchials, and the spittle from same is of the nature to show that it is the lack of proper eliminations through the normal channel, hindered by subligations in the cerebrospinal system.
6. Well, too, for the body to add with this (if the adjustments are taken - be of little use if they are not, though would keep down irritation without it, but better with the corrections made) the inhalant as prepared in this manner - not taken internally, but inhaled when the body is ready to retire or when the body rises in the morning, or when irritation occurs during the night. To four (4) ounces of grain alcohol, add:
244-3 Page 2
Eucalyptol............................20 minims, Rectified Creosote.....................5 minims, Canadian Balsam.......................10 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp.................10 minims, Benzoin...............................15 minims, Tincture of Tolu in Solution..........30 minims.
7. Keep the solution in a container twice the size of the quantity, with a glass stopper. Shake solution before the deep inhalations are made from this container, excluding as much air as possible and inhaling only the fumes and gas as created by the stirring or the shaking up of solution.
8. For the condition as is seen in the mesenteric system, and the trouble as experienced with the body in this manner, well that that of the salve [Tim for hemorrhoids] be used, as the rectum shows irritation from the system showing congestion or laxness. This would remove irritation by the use of this, being injected in the rectum after each stool, see? a small quantity on finger or swab may be applied to these protruding parts, or in the mouth or end of rectum, see?
9. Also we would take OCCASIONALLY - once a day, or once every other day - a good swallow of a preparation of this:
10. Take six (6) ounces of horehound. To this add eight (8) ounces distilled water. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one-half the quantity. Then dissolve one (1) ounce of rock candy in two (2) ounces of eighty-five percent (85%) alcohol, see? adding solutions together. Then add to this - after this has been compounded together - Oil of Sassafras.......................5 minims, Oil of Peppermint......................5 minims, Senna..................................1 grain.
11. Shake this Solution together, and let the dose be taken of a teaspoonful, see, once a day or once every other day, whenever necessary for the system to complete digestion throughout the whole of the mesenteric system.
12. Have the adjustments made first. Then use the other properties as have been given. Do that.
13. (Q) How many adjustments should be made? (A) At least thirteen (13).
14. (Q) What caused pain just under left shoulder, and what will relieve same? (A) The pressure as is seen produced there from contraction in the nerve system, and the reaction to the cardiac central nerves, or secondary cardiac central nerves.
15. (Q) What causes cough?
244-3 Page 3
(A) This irritation produced in bronchials from secondary cardiac reflexes. Do as we have given here, and we will bring better conditions to this body of [244].
16. We are through with this reading.
