1. EC: Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before, [979].
2. There is the tendency, as we find, to revert toward old disturbances; with the body allowing itself to become toxic from lack of proper eliminations and the lack of proper balance in that given the body to work upon. Hence we have the settlings of poisons or refuse forces that should be eliminated by the regular circulatory forces; causing dullness in the activities, headaches, upset stomach at times; tired, dreary feelings, as it were, about the body.
3. As we find in the present, we would do this:
4. Procure 8 ounces of Vinol. Draw off one tablespoonful, and in its place add a tablespoonful of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin. Shake this together very thoroughly. Take a teaspoonful of this three times each day, before the meals.
5. The active forces of these properties are upon the digestive system, and especially upon the kidneys; making for a purifying and a cleansing of same.
6. Then, as to the diet, be very mindful that the alkalin-reacting diet is rather closely adhered to.
7. And make this a rule for the body:
8. For at least three weeks at a period, then leaving off a week and then beginning again, we would:
9. Upon arising of morning, take a lemon, roll it, squeeze the juice from one-half of it into a glass (strained). Then fill the glass with water that is about ninety-eight temperature. Drink this, about thirty minutes before the meal is eaten. Do not eat unless this has been in the system for at least thirty minutes. It will tend to make for an alkalinizing of the system in a very thorough manner, and will aid in overcoming the general tendencies.
10. Ready for questions.
11. Continue the lemon juice in that manner for three weeks, then rest a week; and it'll be found so helpful that the

body will continue it for the next four years if necessary!
12. (Q) Would a change of climate be best? (A) Not necessarily.
13. (Q) Is the malarial climate the cause of my condition, or some other physical ill, or worry? (A) As indicated, the tendency for toxic forces and the accumulations of poisons in the system. It is a general reverting to old disturbances.
14. (Q) Any other advice? (A) Do that, as we find, for the conditions in the present.
15. We are through with this reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (See alkalin reacting diet list [which was enclosed].)
