1. GC: You will give a complete physical and mental diagnosis of the body, answering the specific questions we will ask.
2. EC: We have the body here - this we have had before, you see.
3. Now, considering the physical and mental attitude, these are quite different - especially in this body. While ofttimes there is found that the attitude mentally of an individual has much to do with the physical reactions in the system, these conditions in this body are extraordinary in this respect. Not that the mental or the mental forces of the body are below normal; rather that the intuitive forces are ABOVE normal, and that the impressions as are gained by the body that become a portion of the being, so act UPON the physical forces as to complete or to deflect, or to cause the improper or above normal reaction in the physical attributes and physical conditions of the body. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) What causes pain in arms and side of body? (A) This has been given aforetime. That of the improper eliminations as have been existent for periods in the body.
5. (Q) What causes drawing in breast? [Incipient cancer of breast] (A) This produced by accentuation of properties not eliminated properly from the system, and these having become the center, or the centralization of impurities, this acting as a reservoir, producing a hardening (no, not of a malignant nature, but that of rather the reservoir), and unless proper eliminations are kept in system and should this become bruised, or should the system become so depleted as to produce an extra AMOUNT of refuse forces not being eliminated in nominal channels, or this to become over exacting, as it were, in its call on the system, and acting not so much AS the reservoir - it might become to grow, and become a growth that would be detrimental. Could be turned into that of malignant nature, but not at present. NOT to be removed! Use rather that of the gentle massage around and across the muscle and tissue that lead to the glands of the

breast, from the intercostal, exterior and interior nerve centers, those as come from 5th, 6th dorsal, coming around each side of the body and about the breast itself, with those properties found in Iodex one evening; then the next evening use a combination of oil of butterfat with that of plantain, mixed one to twenty.
6. (Q) One of plantain to twenty of the butterfat? (A) These cooked together, or mixed together - using the leaf with the property itself, see?
7. (Q) Should the body go to Virginia Beach for betterment of physical health? (A) The mental attitude and physical conditions of the body are such that, without the constant surrounding of those dependent upon the individual, only very short periods of absence are of ANY benefit. When conditions with those upon whom the body feels the dependence is in self, then that giving of self necessary, that PRESENCE of self - whether active or just the presence - necessary, and otherwise - as has been given - brings detrimental conditions. Very well for periods, to ANY place. Virginia Beach very GOOD extraordinary, yet these would only be for short periods.
8. (Q) Can body be brought to normal? (A) Near normal.
9. (Q) Can body live to enjoy many years of happiness? (A) Keeping the proper eliminations for the body, it would.

13. (Q) What food should body be given to eat? (A) Body's a good dietician and knows that which agrees and that which disagrees. Do not change from those that the body knows.
14. (Q) What shouldn't the body eat? (A) Just given.
15. (Q) Name doctor who can do most good? (A) Self!
16. (Q) Should body have a car to benefit her health? (A) Be very well. Riding is well for the body. Walking is

better; but riding is good at times, and the body SHOULD have the advantages of such. But would bring more distress, under the environs in which the body is at present, than to do without.
