1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement of same, and you will answer any questions that I will ask you regarding same.

2. EC: Yes - Now, we find there are some exaggerations of the condition as has already been existent in this body, and that there are other conditions with same that cause distress and disturbance to those about this body at the present time.

3. Those conditions as necessary to bring about the correction of these would be to cut down, or change the food, see? and reduce the temperature, and the eliminations be set up by rubbing spine with Coco-Quinine at least once each day using also, as an inhalant, these properties. These may be used in a croup cup, which would be the most effective, for they will act not only as an antiseptic for the blood supply through the blood in and out through the body as it is inhaled, but will also be taken sufficient to act as an antiseptic through the intestinal system. To the small amount, then as would be placed in cup would be as this:

4. To 4 ounces of grain alcohol, add:

Eucalyptol....................20 minims, Benzosol......................10 minims, or Creosote (pure)...1 minim, Benzoin........................3 minims, Rectified Oil or Turp..........2 minims, Tincture of Tolu (in solution)..............30 minims, Oil of Juniper.................1 minim.

5. Small quantity - full teaspoonful, see? be placed in the cup at the time. Let this be breathed in by the body, see?

6. For the condition as is seen as in the side, or the hernia as is shown here, well that this be kept bandaged and greased with Iodex, or any property that reduces soreness across the abdomen and various portions of the body, as is

shown from the condition existent. Do that. Ready for questions.

7. (Q) What amount of food should be taken at a time, and how often? (A) Cut the quantity in half of that as has been given, and give about half the number of times as has been feeding, see? until the conditions are reduced.

Well that enemas be used of lukewarm water, but not sufficient should these be taken as to cause the distress of the hernia condition, see? Well that lower intestines, though, be cleansed. This will reduce temperature also, you see.

Inhalations should be taken whenever necessary, see? at least once - twice each day, or in evenings, if more than one is necessary, see?

The massage or the rubs with the Coco-Quinine - cocoa butter - over the spinal system, should be at least once each day - well rubbed in, see? Massage about the hernia, and those portions of the system that show those abrasions at present, with the Iodex, about twice each day, and especially after a movement or action from the bowels, see? that we may reduce the temperature and inflammation. Do that.

8. That is all the questions.

9. We are through for the present.
