Time of Reading 9:45 to 9:55 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Texas. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. Due to the anxieties and excitements, the conditions have become rather exaggerated - even under the stresses that have existed.
3. As we find in the present, it would be well, then, that the Ash and the lights be used; that more oxygen may be had for the circulation, else the temperature will become of such a nature as to become more and more destructive especially to the kidney and liver circulation.
4. Owing to the very nature of the condition or the temperature through the lung area itself, naturally there is the lack of the blood supply.
5. Hence the manipulations should be to stimulate the flow of the circulation through the liver, the kidneys, or through the hepatic circulation; treating the body there.
6. We find that the keeping of the fumes burned in the room, as has been indicated, would be the most beneficial.
7. Also we find that the inhaling of the fumes from apple brandy would be most beneficial. For THIS particular condition in the immediate, it would be best that such fumes be from putting at least a tablespoonful of pure apple brandy in a quantity (say two tablespoonful) of very hot water (as in a croup cup) and allow the fumes or the vapor to be inhaled. In this manner (with the water in same) it will supply to the mucous membranes, to the lungs, to the throat, a moisture that would be most helpful for the body.
8. Later, if the responses come from these, if there is the ability to keep down the breaking of tissue through hemorrhage, then we would use the apple brandy in a charred keg - that would be kept where evaporation would be rather fast; and the smoke or fumes of same inhaled into the lungs. The fumes, the gas; not the brandy itself. When used in this manner, later, the brandy would NOT be put in water, but use half a gallon in a gallon or gallon and a half

charred container, but corked so that it does not escape - and keep close to warmth so that the evaporation takes place.
9. These, with those suggestions that have been indicated, we would keep.
10. As to the diet, we would keep those as indicated, adding beef juice and - for the sweets - honey, or any of the whole wheat cereals. But ALL should be given in a VERY small quantity.
11. These are the better, as we find.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What should be the dosage of the Ash in the present and how often? (A) An eighth of a grain every other day, followed by the light - as ever indicated for such a disturbance.
14. (Q) Should the vapors from the Oil of Pine Needles and Eucalyptus be kept in the room constantly, or occasionally? (A) WELL that these be kept, not too much of same all the time. For the fumes of Pine and Eucalyptus are HEALING, as well as non-irritating to the lung and throat. Keep the poultice, but get the Concord and not the other grapes. If the Concord grapes cannot be secured, then use the seedless white grapes; though the SEED in the Concord grapes are those that take away the inflammation the most. Necessary that eliminations be kept, even though an enema be used each day; for there should be a movement every day. If there is not a natural movement, then use the enema.
15. (Q) How often should the poultice be used? (A) Whenever there is pain across the abdomen.
16. (Q) What may be done for the swollen eyelids? (A) This condition may be relieved by the pressure on the spine to set up drainages from the system. Let this pressure or manipulation extend, then, to the upper cervical area.
17. (Q) What will reduce the temperature? (A) Those that have been indicated should reduce the temperature. A little bathing with grain alcohol will reduce same. But the temperature is necessary with such inflammation. Reduce by the use, then, of GRAIN alcohol along the spine.
18. We are through with this reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " " Mrs. [1100]
