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, [404].

3. As we find, there are the acute conditions from cold and congestion, and the tendency for same to produce an extra amount of congestion and temperature - by the conditions in the area of the colon itself.

4. This AFFECTS the circulation especially to the thorax and the bronchi and the activities in the eliminations, and putting strain on the kidneys.

5. We would take practically ONLY the fruit juices, especially hot lemonades. These may be taken with the soda water or this separately - a quarter teaspoonful of soda in a FULL glass of water, drinking an extra glass afterward.

6. Begin with the use of the liquid Simmons Liver Regulator. Take this in broken doses - nearly a teaspoonful about every three hours, until there is a GOOD reaction from the alimentary canal.

7. Do APPLY the equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Turpentine and Camphor over the chest AND the back, applying the hot flannel cloths after same has been rubbed in thoroughly.

8. Do have the feet and limbs bathed thoroughly in as hot water as the body can stand, before taking the liquids.

9. Do these and we should in a couple of days feel entirely different - almost normal.

10. Ready for questions.

11. (Q) What is cause and relief for pain in nerve in left leg? (A) Pressure on the colon, as indicated, from the sources from which these pressures arise - the eliminations of the alimentary canal. And a removal of the pressures will relieve these tensions.

12. (Q) Did the fall of several weeks ago have anything to do with this?

(A) To be sure, it contributed to the cause - but is not the source.

13. (Q) Any specific nerve affected? (A) The sciatic - but this sympathetically, rather than specifically. [Sciatica?] Do these things as we have indicated, for better conditions for this body.

14. We are through for the present. Copy to Self (Phoned also) " " Ass'n file ile
