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

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1196]; this we have had before.

3. As we find, there has come much of a reversal to the old disturbances that were first indicated for this body.

4. The anxieties that are a part of the mental AND physical forces have much to do with the conditions, to be sure.

5. It is true that the body feels it has not been given the consideration it should have been given, from many angles; but to hold animosities makes for the creating of those influences such that a great deal of poisons are not easily eliminated - especially with an already overtaxed condition through the assimilating forces of the digestive system.

6. And here we find that hate and animosity and anxiety may be the poison that causes MUCH of the disturbance.

7. LIVE more in keeping with that as thou hast professed, that He is able to keep that committed unto Him against any experience. Did He justify Himself before His accusers? Did He attempt to even meet the words that were spoken condemning Him?

8. So in thine own physical forces:

9. We would use the Alcaroid in the manner that has been indicated; about a quarter teaspoonful with or after the meal, especially the morning and the evening meals.

10. DO NOT eat fats, nor greases of any kind! And when the Alcaroid is taken, drink plenty of water.

11. Use the Elliott Machine to allay the inflammation in those areas that have been indicated as a part of the disturbing forces. If these treatments are insisted upon, they may be obtained and taken in thine own city; or they may be taken in Birmingham. But these for the prostate disturbance will relieve a great deal of inflammation

through the lower portion of the abdomen, the conditions in the kidneys and the bladder, as WELL as relieving a great deal of the distress after meals in the stomach and digestive system. Use the Elliott applicator for the prostate disturbance - which would be given according to the one administering same, either once a day or once every other day for thirty minutes to an hour.

12. Occasionally a general relaxing would be had either neuropathically or osteopathically, or - if neither of these is desired - have a hydrotherapy treatment WITH the general massage that would be GENTLY given. INDICATE the disturbance to such an one, and the manipulator or operator will relax the body so that REST will be helpful - IF ANY ANIMOSITY IS LEFT OUT OF THE CONSCIOUSNESS!

13. At the time of the hydrotherapy treatments, we find that enemas or colonic irrigations would be MOST helpful. But do not attempt these unless they are given by one well versed IN such; owing to the disturbance in the prostate area.

14. DO that!

15. Ready for questions.

16. (Q) What is causing the severe constipation? (A) Inflammation through the intestinal system; partially from the stomach, partially from the glandular disturbance. Hence as indicated, the Alcaroid - which is an alkaline digestant and tending towards a laxative - will relieve disturbance. Of course, when it's necessary take a vegetable compound as a laxative.

17. (Q) What is causing nervousness in left arm? (A) It is not nervousness; it is more of the neuritis nature - from poisons in the system; and will continue to give greater pain until there is a better balance kept in the eliminating system - and this balance may be best obtained through the manners we have just indicated.

18. (Q) Should I wear an abdominal support? (A) If so desired, but this is a part of the general disturbance - this condition. Do as indicated, and we will find much of this disturbance eliminated. But don't do just part and say "I've done all!" Do it all or do none! and doing it means leaving off animosity, as well as the physical application!
