Time of Reading 4:30 to 4:40 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., New York. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [849].
2. As we find, the body is GENTLY but gradually on the improve.
3. The sources of the poisons, as we have indicated, and the effects of same that have caused and still do cause disturbing factors in the knee, along the spine, between the shoulders, and more recently in the activities of the circulation to the organs of the sensory system - produce specific or acute conditions.
4. Then it becomes necessary that there be the continued keeping up of the masseur's activity, the colonics to keep dis-coordinations between the cerebrospinal circulation and the lymph or superficial through the system, that there may be the better coordination between the eliminating systems of the body.
5. These kept much in the manner as has been given will, as we find, be the much more effective; that is:
6. The Fume Baths - these not too hot, not too long. These we would change somewhat. Now, instead of the Oil, use the Witchhazel in same. While this will make a tingling sensation at times to the superficial circulation or skin it self, owing to the elements of same, it will carry more healing now, and will be more effective when the rubdowns or the massages make for the changes in the system.
7. Watch the diets. Keep to those things that will aid in the eliminations. Build up the body with more of iron, as may be had from dried fruits, figs, dates, nuts and the like. Let these form a part of the daily diet, with plenty of oranges, lemons, grapefruit and especially FRESH pineapple - rather than the canned, for this particular body. The green vegetables; these well-balanced, well-cooked.
8. And keep mentally in constructive forces, and we should keep the better conditions for the body.

9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What should be done to insure the health of the entity during the remainder of the winter? (A) In keeping in these ways as indicated, so that we will eliminate the sources of infection by the keeping of the coordinations BETWEEN the superficial and deeper circulation, and keeping ALL of the eliminations cooperating or coordinating. Do not let the alimentary canal become congested. Use the colonics occasionally. Use then the better respiratory reactions with the activity of the Baths and the masseur. Use those things in the diets that make for the better balance in creating for the activities of the body the better actions BETWEEN the building up and the using of energies in the system.
11. (Q) I seem to have no appetite. (A) Change to these things as indicated, and these if they are nibbled along on - and not made just regular meals, you see, will supply energies needed and in manners as may be assimilated - and do not act like taking heavy meals at specific times. Do those of the animals have regular meals? Man's the only one that sets a routine for himself! unless man sets it for the animal and won't let him!
12. (Q) How often should the Fume Baths be taken now? (A) Once or twice a week. This depends upon the reactions and the feelings to the system.
13. (Q) What treatments should be followed after recovery to help the knee and back? (A) Keep the building up and replenishing through the oils and the rubs. These kept occasionally will ensure that causes are eliminated and the body building up generally.
14. (Q) Is the present trouble to be expected as an aftermath of future illnesses, or will it be eradicated after the present attack is over? (A) This depends upon just those things as indicated to the body from the beginning! This is an acute condition, but the applications of coordinating the system in its eliminations of poisons, and of the causes and the effects, should ERADICATE the condition - and not to be expected to be returning! though if the body builds that consciousness that "I've got a weakness or a tendency and must give way to it," then if you look for that, and know you're going to have it, you'll certainly have it! for the mind builds it then, and it must be met! For remember, ever is the individual constantly - in the physical - meeting that it has builded in its mental AND physical forces of its body!
15. We are through with this Reading.
