Time of Reading 12:30 to 1:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Ohio. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [717].
2. As we find, there are disturbing conditions in the physical functionings of the body. These are rather of the complex nature. While the ministrations for relief have been helpful, as we find, with changes and in meeting and preparing the physical activities for the creating of greater resuscitating influences in the activities of the glands, and in the creating for better eliminations, we may bring a much nearer normal condition for this body, [717] we are speaking of.
3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body:
4. We find that the BLOOD SUPPLY is deficient, especially in the elements that are necessary to take from those portions of the system the activities that have caused - and do cause - the distresses through the drosses in the system.
5. The condition, then, makes for that of a disturbed circulation; low in its pressure, deficient in the leucocyte, and low in the vital forces necessary, with little or no lymph circulation that is effective in the central portion of the body.
6. As to the NERVE FORCES, we find many of the centers of the cerebrospinal system are almost negligible in their reflexes, so we will find at times in the extremities little or no feeling; though the abilities for locomotion have been somewhat improved from that which has existed in the system since the paresis began, the crystallization of the fluids about the joints at times makes for excruciating pains.
7. The relief that has been brought through the relieving of the pressures has made for a laxness in some portions and continued tautness in others. These produce, then, a
717-1 Page 2
general condition of incoordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal system.
8. The ORGANS themselves of the body:
9. Brain forces we find not with those ready responses, yet in the general activity for a physical body are very good.
10. Sensory organism, as the eyes, the ears - or the vision, the hearing, the taste, the smell - the abilities for the activity of the olfactory nerves and muscles are not as sensitive as the vision or the hearing; neither, of course, are the touch or the feeling, owing to the very nature of the disturbances that have existed in the physical functionings of the body. These though, as we find, may be made to respond to the general reconstruction of influences that may be brought about in the body.
11. The throat, bronchi, lungs, the larynx, all of these show the effects of a poor circulation; yet we would not give that these are the cause but rather the conditions or the effects of disturbances in the body.
12. Heart's action and pulsation there is abnormal, through the variations in the nerve forces of the body, that is in the governing activity or abilities.
13. The digestive system we find at times very good; at others poor assimilation.
14. As we find, then, the condition that first produced or brought about these activities in the system that deal with the organs, as to their showing the greater disturbance in the present, was from sepsis poisoning that arose in the physical activities of the body following childbirth, that made for the effective pressures in the organs of the pelvis and the activities in the nervous system. This was the primary cause. The effects have been to first the incapacitating of the nerve forces or supplies to portions of the system, allowing then the accumulations to come about in the system and the unbalancing of the elements that make up the acids and alkalins for the system - or rather the potassiums and iodides for the elemental activities of the nerve forces as related to the gland secretions; through the very pressure as created by that existent in the lower dorsal and lumbar area. Hence the complications that have arisen with the functionings of the liver, spleen, pancreas, and especially the lacteal ducts or assimilating forces in the system as to the supplying of the resuscitating forces or influences.
15. Then, in adding to that which has been administered to the body in the form of the relieving of pressures in the cerebrospinal system, with the addition of electrical forces that have been for a stimulation to various centers in
717-1 Page 3
portions of the body, we would find that if there were elements added within the system - and to become more active with the vital forces that create for the activities in elimination and assimilation - we may bring the more effective aid, and help, to this physical body.
16. In making such applications, first we would not change from the aiding of the centers and ganglia in the cerebrospinal by the adjustments. We would not give the high frequency nor the high voltage of the electrical vibrations, however. Rather would we use the low static or galvanic that would carry with same, in the low electrical vibrations of the wet cell battery, the Gold with an alternate solution of Spirits of Camphor and another alternate solution of iodine. These would be added in such ways and manners, through the very activity of those portions of the system, to be the more affected by same being carried into the body.
17. The appliance would be made with the copper and nickel plates. The wires would be attached at the various centers AS the solutions are given to the system. In making the first application the Spirits of Camphor would be used, when the small or copper plate would be attached first - to the brachial center; and the larger nickel plate, that passes through the solution, would be attached to the 4th dorsal center.
18. On the next day, when the Chloride of Gold would be used, the smaller anode would be attached first - to the secondary cardiac center, or in the 2nd and 3rd dorsal plexus; and the larger anode, passing through the Gold, would be attached to the umbilicii plexus - or covering the greater portion of the lacteal duct area.
19. The next day, when the Atomidine or atomic iodine would be used, the small anode would be attached first at the 9th dorsal plexus; while the larger plate passing through the solution would be attached at the lacteal duct area.
20. The variations in these applications are for the variations in the activity to those centers that act with those that will relieve the strain in the area of the glands that are and will be affected by the passage of this low form of vibration of the solution through the area itself.
21. Each application each day should be for not longer than thirty minutes. And with the first applications of the Gold solution we may produce nausea, but we would keep them up - not OVER thirty minutes, however. When the Gold solution application produces nausea, we would cut down the period to half the time, or fifteen minutes, but keep on taking.
22. As given, begin first with the Camphor, then with the
717-1 Page 4
Gold, then with the iodine. Then the next day begin over again with the Camphor, see? Keep these up for the whole six to eight weeks, when we would give further instructions.
23. Do not use the same leads into the solution for each of the solutions, see? Have them separate for each one. And it would be much better if these were made in a larger container and spiral, rather than just in the shape of a U, and connected rather through a solution that prevents the escaping of the electrical vibrations.
24. The lead into the solution should be charging for at least five minutes before it is attached to the body.
25. All of these leads should be kept cleansed, polished off, before they are applied to the body; and not in contact with the solution when not in use.
26. We would also give the body Epsom Salts baths; a saturated solution, at least ten to fifteen pounds to thirty gallons of water, as hot as the body may stand - and constantly add hot water (hot Epsom Salts solution, not just plain water) for at least thirty to forty minutes, with the body in same covered entirely up to the neck.
27. After such a bath we would rub the body down very thoroughly, and especially along the cerebrospinal system, with a combination of oils prepared in this manner:
28. To 6 ounces Russian White Oil, as the base, add: Oil of Cedar Wood.......................1 ounce, Oil of Mustard.........................20 minims, Kerosene, or Coal Oil...................2 ounces, Rectified Oil of Turp.................1/4 ounce, Oil of Sassafras.......................40 minims.
29. Shake the solution together before it is massaged into the body, for there will be the natural tendency for especially the Oil of Sassafras to separate from the others. Massage into the spine and the area across the diaphragm, and especially in the sacrum - ALL the body will absorb.
30. Such an application would be made about once every ten days, until we find a respiration over the whole body - that has not existed for some years.
31. Begin with taking the Atomidine internally, in this manner: For the first five days take one drop twice each day, morning before the meal and before retiring in the evening, in half a glass of water. After the fifth day, increase to three drops morning and evening. Continue for five days. Then leave off entirely. Then begin, after three to five days, with the one drop morning and evening. Repeat the whole round three to four times.
32. As to the matter of diet, we would be most consistent
717-1 Page 5
with same. Let this be rather of those things that will add within the system, as they are affected BY these solutions that we have given that will be active upon the system, such as to create the blood and nerve supplies of the body. This we would give as an outline, though it may be altered or changed at times:
33. Mornings - citrus fruit juices, or stewed fruits, or cooked cereals that are whole wheat; but do not give the cereals and citrus fruit juices at the same meal; for the additions of the glutens with the activities of the citrus fruit will change these in the system, as will also the activities of the iodines in the body, as well as the acid from the Gold solution.
34. Noons - only raw vegetables; nothing cooked at all. These should be of the cabbage, spinach, lettuce, celery, tomatoes, radishes, peppers, and of such natures. These may be mixed with oils - olive oil, or a salad dressing may be used with same. Also at the noon meals there may be taken DRIED milk; that prepared, preferably, in the nature of the evaporated. This is more helpful for this body than the activity from the animal matter.
35. Evenings - well-cooked vegetables, with at least three that grow above the ground to one grown below the ground, of whatever nature; and two of the leafy to one of the pod. In the matter of meats, only use lamb or fish - or fowl occasionally.
36. If we will follow these, we will find we will bring - in six to eight weeks - quite a different condition with this body, [717].
37. Ready for questions.
38. Do these, and we will bring the better conditions - and we would give further instructions after the six weeks of ALL being applied.
39. We are through for the present. Copy to Husband " " Ass'n file (11/4/34 GD's note: See letter [which was enclosed] to The Reilly Service, giving specifications for Appliance. The Atomidine may be obtained from the Health Home Remedies Co., Box 103, Virginia Beach, Va., $1 bottle. The rest of the reading should be clear; if not, advise. Be sure to take all the treatments along together, as outlined; for one without the other will not bring the desired effects. Let us hear after the complete treatments have been followed for the six weeks, so we may make an appointment for a check reading.)
