1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for corrective measures; answering the questions as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [288]; this we have had before.

3. As we find, in the main, conditions are very good through the physical forces generally of the body. There is an unbalanced condition in the blood streams, from too much of alkalinity at times and excesses of acids at others - by improper balancing in the diet.

4. And there are those effects, to be sure, of the weakening conditions brought about by the cold and congestion which has existed, as well as the effects with the nervous system and a general irritation from the hemorrhoids which have caused and do cause disturbances.

5. As we find - keep the body well balanced in the diets. Not too much of sweets, yet not so much of the fruits or fruit juices as to cause a general strain through the alimentary canal.

6. These as we find will be materially aided with the use of ADIRON, which will add vitality, sufficient quantity of the vitamin forces as to make for a better balance, and a better assimilation of that taken; adding the vital forces of iron in a manner in which it may be assimilated, as well as the cod liver oil that is strengthening, and carrying certain vitamins that are needed.

7. For the hemorrhoids - use Pazo's Hemorrhoid Remedy, with the tube, as a manner of application. Apply this when ready to retire. Also, just before it is applied we would take the exercise of rising on the toes and bending forward, as well as rising on the toes and bending to first one side, then the other.

8. Do these, and as we find we will make for a better balancing throughout the system.

9. Ready for questions.

10. (Q) What causes, and what may be done to correct, the

following? General weakness, tiredness, nervousness? (A) As has been indicated, the lack of the vitamin forces in the body, the unbalanced conditions, and the condition in the blood supply.

11. (Q) Poisons thru eyes, nose, throat? (A) These are the effects of the congestions as indicated, and should be eliminated by the use of those things indicated. And we would keep the Serutan as an aid to better eliminations. But take consistently; teaspoonful at each meal for at least five days at a time. Don't take it one day and skip it for a part of the next day, and the next day a part, and the next; but take it consistently for at least five days. Then you may skip it for a couple of days. Then take it five days again.

12. (Q) Monthly lumbago? (A) Needs only the stimulating of the iron forces and a better blood supply.

13. (Q) Swelling of lower limbs? (A) Do as has been indicated! All of these have been covered!

14. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file le
