Time of Reading 3:50 to 4:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [774].
2. Now, as we find, while many conditions in minor ways disturb the greater abilities of the physical functionings of the body, those that make for the more specific hindrance to the better reactions are from the affectations that arise from a disturbed circulation - and the inflammation through the overtaxation of the vision. Hence we have those adverse conditions in or about the face and eyes, the head, the circulation there, and the like. These with some corrections, as we find, may be materially aided in their disturbances, and we may be able to overcome much of that which has disturbed the body in this direction.
3. First, as we find from the astrological aspects, there are afflictions in these portions of the body in the periods through which the entity is passing in the present. Then, we find there are pathological effects from pressures that have existed in the upper dorsal, and through the cervical area, to the circulations to and through those portions of the body itself. Hence an accumulation of drosses until there are those infectious forces upon the eyeball itself, as well as the natural accumulations in the lachrymal duct area, as well as in the lids and the retinae itself being hindered in its reactions by these accumulations.
4. In making for the helpful conditions, as we find, we would make specific adjustments and alleviation of pressures in the 3rd, the 2nd dorsal; in the 4th and 3rd cervical, with the pressures stimulated by the circulation that arises - by the alleviating of these pressures - through the temple of the head and at the 1st and 2nd cervical and the areas along the veins and arteries in the vagus centers. These would, by the stimulation osteopathically given, alleviate these pressures.
5. Then the application of those things that have been used as the antiseptics and washes for the eyes may be much more

effective.
6. We would find also helpful the stimulations from the electrical vibrations of the violet ray, following such osteopathic adjustments and manipulations (that would be given three or four times each week). Stimulate along the temple, down each side of the throat, then down from the base of the brain to at least the 9th and 10th dorsal centers. These treatments would be with the bulb applicator applied directly to those portions of the surface of the body itself, stimulating the centers that would carry circulation both from and to affected portions specifically.
7. Increase the eliminations above the normal through the alimentary canal and respiratory system by using not so much cathartics as laxatives, of the more alkalin nature; such as would be found by alternating in this manner:
8. One evening take a tablespoonful of Milk of Magnesia with a glass of water.
9. The next evening take three-quarters of a teaspoonful of Milk of Bismuth with three to five minims of Lactated Pepsin, stirred together in a glass of water.
10. The next evening take an Alophen pill, to stimulate the eliminations.
11. Then the next day we would use an enema to alleviate the accumulations and drosses through the alimentary canal, especially through the colon area.
12. These, as we find, continued in a systematic way and manner, would make for the greater help for this body, [774], at this time.
13. As we find, these through those aids of those in sympathy with these sources of information - or such an one as Coombs, or the like - would be most helpful.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Any advice regarding diet? (A) Those things that make for body and blood and nerve building, but tending towards the alkalin reaction would be the more helpful for the body.
16. We are through with this reading.
17. GC: That is all for the present.
18. EC: We are through. [GD's note: Apparently he would have attempted another reading if GC had presented another name.] Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (We would refer you to Dr. LeRoy Coombs, 454 Ft. Washington Ave., N.Y.C. Present the reading to him and let him follow the osteopathic and violet ray instructions for you. GD.
