1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [286]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are a great many changes in the general physical forces of the body. Some are very good. Some show those signs of specific disturbances, especially as indicated in the caecum AND the ovary area.
4. These are rather of a sympathetic nature, from a strain - as well as the conditions under which the strain occurred, you see; that is, the periods, or the eliminations and the pressures, have brought about disturbances in both the appendicial or caecum area AND the right ovary.
5. We would give first that there be some adjustments made, especially in the lower dorsal and through the lumbar and sacral area.
6. Of evening, just before retiring, use an equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor, for massaging - all that the body will absorb - into the area of the groin, across the caecum, as well as across the small area of the back. This would be done just before retiring, you see. Then apply a heavy flannel over the whole area that has been massaged; with an electric pad used alternately first to the front and then to the back. This should be kept on either area for about twenty to thirty minutes each, you see.
7. If the adjustments or corrections, AND these local applications, do not remove the inflammatory conditions, we would consult a surgeon.
8. These as we find, however, SHOULD remove the disturbance.
9. Be mindful that there is not allowed to be a day without proper eliminations. Do not overtake cathartics or laxatives. Use rather small doses of Olive Oil often - that is, about a quarter to half a teaspoonful taken several times during a day.

10. Do these, as we find best for the conditions. This should remove this tiredness, this aching, and the headaches and the nausea that occurs at times, also the pain through those areas.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What causes pains in lower rectum? (A) This is the same strain, you see.
13. (Q) Has this also caused the upset of the bowels? (A) As just indicated. Do these things and we SHOULD bring the better conditions. Should temperature occur, or a great deal of nausea, have the operative measures at once.
14. We are through for the present. Copy to Self - Air Mail " " Ass'n file [GD enclosed extra sheet of directions for Dr. Thompson [D. Carl Thompson, D.C.] chiropractor. He has gotten good results with several people we have sent to him.]
