1. EC: Yes, we have the body.
2. As we find, there are rather the complications of disturbances with this body. Some have been of long standing. Some are the effects or results of some administrations. Some have been and are of the nature as to disturb the coordination between the voluntary and involuntary nerve forces.
3. These arise from conditions that may be said to be the lack of the functionings of glands, owing to there becoming hardened tissue - or their adherence in portions; as about the lacteals, in a portion of the functioning of the organs of the pelvis, and as related to the adrenal reaction.
4. Hence we have a kidney disturbance, with the inability of locomotion from the lower portion of the body; also an adhesion in the ileum plexus area, tautness about the muscular forces in the lower end of the cerebrospinal system; tendency for nausea, and the inactivity of the kidneys to make for a disturbance in the circulation in the exterior or superficial circulation. Abrasions and spots occur at times over the body. There is the inability of the body to straighten its whole body up at times, from the shoulders up. The tendency here at times for the dysarthrosis (?) [GD's note: EC pronounced Digitan. Agitans? Parkinson's] causes the body if walking to tip forward; not wholly that form as to make for a palsied condition, but there is the inability of taking anything with the least acidity reaction without forming, as it were, a burning through the digestive area; making for a thinness in the blood supply, making for a HUMOR that arises from same.
5. These, as we find, are the indications that arise from those disturbances from the conditions which have been indicated that are the cause or the seat of the disturbances with this body, [946] we are speaking of.

6. In making applications that would aid, as we find, in bringing the better conditions for this body, it would necessitate that there be rather courses of applications that would interchange at times one with another; with periods of rest and then the application of properties that would change the activity of the forces that are the seat or cause of disturbances.
7. First, then, we would begin with these:
8. Be mindful that the diets are of those foods easily assimilated, yet that are sufficient to make for the vitality necessary to sustain the strength of the body. We would begin then with the almost predigested foods. While we would not upset in a great manner the conditions that have been and are being applied in these directions, we would add these with same:
9. We would take the Ventriculin WITH iron, each day; preferably in the evening.
10. Also we would have a portion of the meals to consist of calf's liver, broiled (not fried, but broiled); not too done, but sufficient that this may be taken in small quantities and will make for assimilation.
11. We would add those vibrations to the body from the low electrical forces of the Wet Cell Appliance, with the attachments made as follows:
12. The copper plate would be attached first to the body, at the 4th lumbar plexus. Then the nickel plate would be attached last, at the umbilicii or over the lacteal duct area; that we may carry the charge of the low electrical forces THROUGH the body, see?
13. These vibrations are much preferable to a static, direct or an alternating current; for they are closer to supplying the VIBRATIONS that are in the electronic energies of the body.
14. This appliance we would attach for twenty minutes in the morning after the body has been prepared after the night, you see, and for twenty minutes in the afternoon before the body is ready or prepared for the night's rest, you see; twenty minutes at each application, not longer.
15. After each application disconnect the anodes and keep same clean at all times.
16. Also each evening (after the treatment with the vibrations from the Wet Appliance), we would massage the body with a compound prepared in this manner:
17. To 4 ounces of Russian White Oil as the base, add (IN THE ORDER NAMED and these proportions): Olive Oil............................1 ounce,
946-1 Page 3
Oil of Cedar Wood....................1 ounce, Kerosene Oil.........................1 ounce, Oil of Wintergreen.................1/2 ounce, Compound Tincture of Benzoin.......1/2 ounce, Witchhazel...........................1 ounce, Oil of Sassafras...................1/4 ounce.
18. These, to be sure, would separate; but when combining add in the order named and then when shaken together, before they are used, they will coordinate or mix sufficient for their vibrations and their activities to act with the counter-activities produced by their being massaged into the cerebrospinal system; especially massaging at the brachial center, at the 9th dorsal center and across the whole of the sacral area. These, as we find, are the SPECIFIC centers, but - to be sure - massage along the whole cerebrospinal system. Also massage the compound in the area under the arms, under the knees, under the elbows and across the groin - ACROSS the groin; not just around but ACROSS the groin. Massage not more than just what the body will absorb each evening.
19. After these treatments have been followed for thirty-six days (not that long after the reading, but after the treatments have been begun and followed exactly as given), then we would rest for five days without ANY application.
20. After the five days we would begin (leaving off still the other applications) with very small doses of two solutions which would be prepared as follows and kept separate:
21. One solution would be prepared in the proportions of 1 grain of Chloride of Gold to 1 ounce of distilled water (3 to 5 grains should be sufficient); add 1 grain of the Chloride of Gold to each ounce of distilled water, you see.
22. The other solution would be prepared in the proportion of 10 grains of Bicarbonate of Soda to 1 ounce of distilled water.
23. The dosage would be: 1st day: 1 minim of the Gold solution with 2 minims of the Soda solution, in half a glass of water. 2nd day: 2 minims of the Gold solution with 4 minims of the Soda. 3rd day: 3 minims of the Gold solution with 6 minims of the Soda. 4th day: 4 minims of the Gold solution with 8 minims of Soda. 5th day: 5 minims of the Gold solution with 10 minims of Soda. 6th day: 6 minims of the Gold solution with 12 minims of Soda. 7th day: 7 minims of the Gold solution with 14 minims of Soda. 8th day: 8 minims of the Gold solution with
946-1 Page 4
16 minims of Soda.
24. Leave off then one day, and begin over again with the 1 drop of Gold solution and 2 drops of Soda solution, increasing each day in the manner given; continuing through the seventh day.
25. Then we would give further instructions.
26. Be mindful to take all the treatments in the manner AND order given, and we should find response. Then we would give further instructions.
27. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (Ventriculin is put up by Parke, Davis & Co., but may be obtained at most any drug store. Be sure to specify WITH iron, and take in the manner directed in reading. See letter [which was enclosed] to The Reilly Service with specifications for the type of Appliance you are to use. The ingredients for the massage may be purchased separately and added by self in the order named; or else filled by a sympathetic druggist. We would refer you to Mr. R. L. Miller, 455 Cooley Ave., Palo Alto, Calif. When you have taken the first course of treatments, had the five day rest period and started on the drops, let us know so that we can make an appointment for a Check Reading to give further instructions. If everything is not clear, let us know. GD.)
