Time of Reading 11:35 to 11:45 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Texas. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1045]. And, as we find, while conditions are still very serious, if there is the close adherence to those suggestions that have been made, there should be response yet in the physical forces of the body.
2. While the strength and the vitality and the resistances are low, if the diet is followed that will be the more easily assimilated, we find that building influences will be created - as we have indicated. NONE of the foods should be in great quantities, but the liquid and semi-liquid diet - the beef juice formed in the manner indicated; and these sipped a little now and then, three, four, five times a day, is much preferable to giving quantities at a stipulated time.
3. The alcohol rubs that we have indicated should be given; not the ordinary RUB alcohol nor the wood, but the pure GRAIN alcohol. The absorption by the body of this is much preferable to injections or to taking same internally in the system; and especially if same is massaged where the emunctories and the lymph come closer to the surface it will be the more easily absorbed and tend to PREVENT temperature - while the injections would tend to raise temperature in the combative influence as would be given.
4. Use the inhalants as indicated from the gases from the charred keg of pure apple brandy; these will make for a clearing of the head and the inflammation in the throat, and - as we find - improvements in the general condition.
5. The calcium and iodine through the use of the Calcidin would be well to continue; this dissolved and SIPPED. This taken frequently, every few hours or every HOUR if a small quantity is taken, is much preferable to a spoonful; and is true in the diet as well as in stimulations.
6. The massage and corrections are still helpful for the body.
7. The use of the Appliance as indicated will bring REST, IF

the applications are kept in the manner as indicated. CLEAN when attached to the body, and keep in contact with the wrist, the ankle. Have it charged or COOLED when or before it is attached; that is, prepare same for fifteen to twenty minutes before it is to be attached to the body, and put on body for an hour or hour and a half two to three times a day.
8. The Yogurt in its preparation may make for the greater absorbing influences through the intestinal system, and with the general inactivity keep the coordinations of activities between the circulatory forces of the liver, the spleen, the pancreas, the lungs, the kidneys, more in order. For from such disturbances the BREAKING DOWN of the katabolism becomes the DESTRUCTIVE force in ANY condition of this nature.
9. Read for questions.
10. (Q) Please advise regarding the use of Sodium Amytol as advised by doctor? (A) This may be resorted to in emergencies, but if the Appliance is used PROPERLY this is MUCH more effective and we would not have the reactions that are as detrimental as the giving of such properties into the system.
