Time of Reading 3:10 to 3:25 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Alabama. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Mrs. [272]; this we have had before - partially a different name.

2. Now, as we find, the conditions that disturb the physical forces of the body show considerable improvements. There are still present in the system and the blood stream, however, those signs - and the effects as indicated in the organs involved in the conditions - of the infectious forces that have disturbed the body. Not to the extent as they have previously been seen or shown; and not so much in the PHYSICAL distress. Neither is there the abundance or the numbers as previously indicated.

3. In the present existent conditions we would make some little alteration in the applications for the body, and these will - as we find, with persistence - eradicate the conditions entirely.

4. We would continue with the small quantity of the Atomidine twice each day (five to eight minims in half a glass of water at each dose).

5. We would alter somewhat the douches; that is, instead of that which is being used at present [Creolin] we would change to the Atomidine also as a douche. One to ten; that is, one ounce of Atomidine to ten ounces of water, see? As we find, this will eradicate the conditions.

6. At the end of the period of six weeks, should there be the indication of the organs, cervix or uterus still being involved in the condition, then we would resort to other measures.

7. But, to either remove the organs themselves or to use the vaccine as a direct application to the organs, as we find, would - under the existent conditions - produce too GREAT an opportunity for large areas of scar tissue to develop, that would make conditions where there would be a CONTINUAL discharge that would be hard to EVER be overcome!

8. And with these treatments continued in the manner outlined, with the responses that we find in the organs, the

272-5 Page 2

glands as related to the eliminations and secretions for the body, we find that the system should be cleared entirely.

9. Be mindful that there is kept for the body a little excess in the way of eliminations through the alimentary canal, so that there may be the carrying away of the refuse forces that will be assimilated and passed to the circulation.

10. We would - one or two day periods in a week - have most of the water as taken carrying either small quantities of Yellow Saffron or Elm. [Powdered Elm]

11. The Yellow Saffron would be made into a tea, and a teaspoonful added to a glass of water. This may be made in a quantity and kept in a cool place.

12. The Elm will have to be made each time, just a short time before it is taken. Just put a small pinch of the Elm in a glass of water. Should this become such as to produce an acid condition, or become an irritant, then leave it off.

13. As eliminants for the alimentary canal, it would be well that these be used:

14. One day (in the evening) take a teaspoonful to three teaspoonsful Milk of Magnesia.

15. The next day take a dessert spoonful Milk of Bismuth.

16. The next day use the Caroid Bile Salts tablets (the caroid carrying the vegetable stimuli for the alimentary canal).

17. It would be well, too, occasionally, when there is felt heaviness after the meal, that the properties called ALCAROID be used as a digestant or digestal. A level teaspoonful dissolved in a small quantity of water, then a full glass of water added, and two glasses drunk at the time, see?

18. As we find, these would bring the normal conditions for this body, Mrs. [272].

19. Ready for questions.

20. Be mindful that the diet does not include too much meats, nor too much fats of any kind. While there will be the tendency for the desires in this direction, we would not include these in the diet. Rather use the foods that are easily digested.

21. The douches we would take at least every other day. They should be with tepid water.

22. (Q) How much water should be used at a time - what quantity? (A) A quart to a quart and a half.

23. (Q) How long should I follow these treatments before getting further advice through these sources? (A) As indicated, five to six weeks.

Follow these and, as we find, we will bring the greater, the better, physical forces for the body. While such measures that we have suggested have the tendency to require a little more time, yet - if the body will know MENTALLY that it is, and see itself PHYSICALLY being CLEANSED, as it were, from any of those destructive forces that have been the lot of the body - we will find these will aid in bringing about much better activities in the physical forces. Keep the mental and spiritual alive for the CREATIVE INFLUENCES that may be activative through all portions of the system!

24. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " File
