1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions he has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [412].
3. As we find, a great deal of the acute disturbance in the circulatory forces of the body in the PRESENT arises from the body's neglect of self in carrying out CONSISTENTLY the suggestions which were made for the body when last we had same here. However, there are general conditions that have produced and do produce the disturbance.
4. In the present, owing to the temperamental conditions, and also the effect of a great many conditions which have been a part of the physical experience of the body, from those reactions we have a lack of coordination between the eliminating systems of the body.
5. It is not merely necessary that there be produced a great deal of activity through the alimentary canal, or through the activity of the perspiratory system. All of these are necessary, but it is necessary that those channels or characters of eliminations are distributed or carried through their proper channels. Otherwise, as indicated by the rash over portions of the body - especially on the lower portion of the limbs and the acute conditions on feet and toes, the conditions under the arms, in the groin and the like - we have such an excess acid in the blood stream and in the alimentary canal as to produce a great deal of disturbance.
6. In the structural portion of the body we find there are some subluxations that are a contributory cause - not the whole direct cause but a CONTRIBUTORY cause to the disturbance. These as we find are through the lumbar and lower dorsal area. And we would have these corrected in an OSTEOPATHIC manner. Make perfect alignment. This should not require more than eight or ten adjustments. But do not,

because the body improves under three or four, leave the rest of them off! They should be taken for at least six weeks; two each week; or four weeks two each week, but NOT LESS than that number - if we would have proper corrections made.
7. The use of the Cabinet Sweat Baths is most desirable. But these should be made with a Fume Bath in same, alternated between Spirits of Camphor AND Witchhazel. One time use a tablespoonful of the Spirits of Camphor, the other time use a tablespoonful of the Witchhazel, in at least a pint or two pints of the water that is boiled under the body in the Cabinet during the treatment. This would be done at least twice each week, once with the Camphor and once with the Witchhazel.
8. Each time after the Cabinet Bath there should be a thorough rubdown with a combination of three parts Olive Oil and one part Pine Needle Oil, as a FOOD tone.
9. After the bath, dust over those portions of the body that are irritated with any good talc powder; PREFERABLE with a good stearate of zinc powder WITH balsam - that is a good talc powder carrying the stearate of zinc with balsam, or with balsam added, see?
10. Over those areas where the abrasions are severe - on the feet, and those portions of the limbs, over the ankles and the calf of the leg - apply locally the D.D.D. Solution. This tetrachloride will be effective in eliminating the poisons which accumulate by such irritation.
11. Do not wear hose or socks that are colored. Only use the white, or white feet at least.
12. Do these and be consistent - we will bring the better conditions.
13. In the diet, do not combine great quantities of cheese with macaroni or the like; for these are IRRITATING to the skin. Milk, coffee and tea may be taken in moderation, but do not mix them during the same meal. Use neither milk nor cream in the coffee or tea, but they may be taken separately or on different days.
14. Not too much meat, and NO FRIED FOODS ever!
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Should the D.D.D. Solution be used where the tissue is broken on foot? (A) Where the tissue is broken on foot. Use this morning and evening. And if there are periods when it becomes very irritating during the day, put on with a small tuft of cotton.
17. We are through with this Reading.
