1. HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. As we find, there are still some of those results of the conditions as we last had here. In the present, they have taken more the form of an inflammation of the lining of the colon itself - or colitis.

4. Thus there is produced the weakness, the upsetting of the assimilating system, and the general temperature feeling conditions, and dizziness, throughout the whole system.

5. First we would have given a light colonic irrigation, such as at Reilly's. Not too much - not more than one cleansing of the lower portion of the colon; that is, using only one container of the water, you see.

6. Then, once each day for two days take internally two teaspoonsful of Milk of Magnesia with ten drops of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin in same.

7. On the third day, then, take two heaping teaspoonsful of a saline laxative - as Sal Hepatica.

8. Then, after the system has been affected, or thoroughly flushed, from the taking of the laxatives indicated - the next day after that we would have a good HIGH colonic.

9. Then, after the second colonic - the high colonic, you see - we find that the general manipulations, osteopathically administered, will produce RESPONDING effects to the system. For, we need to absorb the inflammation, to cleanse the colon a little at first, so that the other applications may act upon the body, see?

10. Do these, and we will find better conditions coming for the body.

11. During the periods that the properties are being taken internally, we would not take any solid foods; but rather such as the liquids and semi-liquids - as Malted Milks,

broths and things of that kind; but DO NOT have too much of starches as these are taken!

12. Do these, if we would bring the bettered conditions for this body.

13. Ready for questions.

14. We are through with this Reading. Copy to Mother - Air Mail, Special " " Ass'n file (See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] for H. J. Reilly, R.C.A. Bldg., N.Y.C., also for the Osteopath.) .)
