1. EC: Yes. Much changes in the body since we last had same. There is an unfolding of the areas where there were the capsulings or sheathings of a portion of the intestinal system. Naturally, there is soreness, irritation through the caecum and the areas in the right side.

2. As we would find, evening and morning, a gentle massage of the abdomen - and especially in the caecum area and all the right side - with equal portions of Olive Oil and Tincture of Myrrh would be most beneficial. Massage just what the body will absorb, and then sponge off with a soda solution afterwards - this tepid, of course, and not cold.

3. Be mindful of the diet, and that there are plenty of eliminations.

4. The occasional use of the irrigations or the enemas is most helpful. These not necessarily too high, but do not allow packs or clogging of the colon area.

5. For the strengthening and to give greater resistance to the body, the beef juice, the liver extract and the like would be well to be taken as a tonic and as medicine. The liver extract about three times a day, the beef juices about twice - noon and evening. Not great quantities, but a tablespoonful sipped very slowly, with Graham or Ry-Krisp crackers or the like. These are easily assimilated, these build blood supply and will increase the weight of the body.

6. Do these.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) Is there any cancerous or ulcerous condition in the stomach? (A) We do not find same.

9. (Q) Why loss of much weight? (A) Worry as much as anything else, and the lack of the diets for building up the system.

10. (Q) Any specific diet? (A) As has been indicated these added to those that have been indicated for the body will be body-building, and strength-giving.
