1. EC: Yes, we have the body and those conditions as surround the body, [543] - this we have had before. In many ways the physical conditions, as we find, have not altered materially since last we had same here; while there are many changes as for the eliminating of the causes and for the cleansing of the physical system, as respecting that that PRODUCES those reactions in the nervous system, and the suppressions in portions of the system. In the physical functioning, these are rather suppressed than reacting in the normal manner under the suppression. In the reactions for the betterment, we would find, were those properties [of passion flower used] as has been OUTLINED, with the changes as will be necessary in the improvements, [they] would eliminate and eradicate the causes. [See 543-11.] In making the changes, it will be found that these may NOT be changed too suddenly, [from Dr. Harry L. James' medicine?] but with the preparation of those properties as will act with the glands of the system, with the nervous forces and reactions of the body, they would be gradually rid of ONE portion and gradually take on those of the other. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) Is the sleepiness or unnatural feeling caused by the effects of any of the medicines being taken? (A) They are.
3. (Q) Please specifically outline for the body's diversion, work. (A) This would necessarily mean gradually changes, as there is a change IN the reactions for the system; for with PRESENT MENTAL reactions to the whole of the nervous system, these would not allow for a great deal activity as would be required in mental responses with physical reactions, but as the changes come about, more of that that will be outside, or in the open, that as will require those of PHYSICAL exertion, as well as of MENTAL directing - as of walking, golfing, and the like. These would be well as recreation.

In those of specific things, taking up those as of drawing, outlining, or the like, will be well, as would be definite work that might be undertaken in anything of that nature. They would be changed or altered, to be sure, AS the reactions are for the better BALANCING for the physical body.
4. (Q) Would you suggest any study at the university? [Atlantic University] (A) If in the line of art, would be well. As of weaving, drawing, or the like.
5. (Q) How many osteopathic treatments a week should body take with the changes as would be made? (A) At least twice a week, until there is at least an even balance - then these may be changed.
6. (Q) Should the light treatments be continued? (A) Should be continued.
7. (Q) In the same manner? (A) In the same manner.
8. (Q) Is the medicine the body is taking sufficient for eliminations? (A) When there is the necessity for those [results] of a more perfect elimination, which will be found - as there are changes - then these would be well to be taken in a way and manner as to produce less acids, so that we would change as to this: An alternation - that is, one day one, the next day another - see? those Phenolax, Milk of Bismuth, Milk of Magnesia, and Honeyida water. [Hunyadi Water - A purgative mineral water brought from Hunyadi, Hungary]
9. (Q) Would occasional smoking injure the body? (A) Wouldn't be any HELPFUL to the body, until there is a change in the nervous reactions in system - than it might be well.
10. (Q) Would it be better physically for the body to go against the parents' wishes regarding changing treatment? (A) That's for those, for the parents and those in charge of the body to decide for themselves! We have given the conditions, and that as is existent!
11. (Q) Has the body any pyorrhea? (A) Not true pyorrhea; there are some accumulations as of film. We would find that any of the dentifrices that carry iodine and salt would be helpful to same.
12. (Q) Which ones carry iodine and salt? (A) Iodent or Ipsab, or any of those.
13. (Q) Any other suggestions that would be helpful for the body at this time? (A) These have been given. These we would do. We are through.
