Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:10 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. While conditions are still very serious, and there may be a reaction in either direction at most any time, as we find the GENERAL conditions show some improvement; and there is a LITTLE strength gained.
2. As we find for the IMMEDIATE, leave off the Yellow Saffron, see? This has been a little bit too strong, a little bit too much in quantity. This will be necessary in a little weakened solution a little bit later.
3. We would keep the same character of the foods, though ALTER same according to the manner in which the body assimilates same - as to whether it is rich or whether it is weakened with the boiled water.
4. Before EACH nursing, now, give one drop of Glyco-Thymoline. Continue with this until there is an indication from stool (by the odor) that it HAS passed as an antiseptic throughout the alimentary canal.
5. Continue with the Castoria WHEN necessary. Do not give so much that it makes for the movement of the bowels so irregular as to LOSE the effect of the food values, but as to keep eliminations so that they are near natural and normal.
6. We would use as an antiseptic, other than the POWDER as has been indicated in the stearate with the balsam, preferably Resinol Ointment on those portions of the irritations on the skin itself, see?
7. These as we find would be better.
8. Keep the body quiet, and especially OUT of the light, see; that is, that there may not be greater injury to the face or the eyes from the general conditions.
9. Do that.
10. These we find offer the better conditions for this body.
11. (Q) Should the Resinol be used after the oil rubs? (A) Be used after the oil rubs. Do not rub too hard, to be

sure, for the skin is already tender and this is an antiseptic WITH that and will work with the camphorated oil and the olive oil.
12. (Q) What causes the hoarseness when crying? Is his throat sore? (A) Throat is sore, and it is a natural condition from WEAKNESS and the fullness of the phlegm in same.
13. (Q) What causes him to stiffen his spine as if it pains him? (A) The natural reaction and the attempt of those VERY conditions as indicated. This is a better sign than bad, though it shows the determination of the body - but give it a chance for goodness' sakes!
14. (Q) When should the orange juice and cod liver oil be begun? (A) Not until after there is the ability for the body to assimilate same.
15. (Q) Should the Tea be begun again tonight or later? (A) Not until, as has been indicated! It may be one day, it may be a week - but it's the necessity of alleviating those disturbances internally. If you don't, we will have the inflammation continually pouring out through the respiratory system, of the infectious forces, see? This is left off until such time as has been indicated! Use some judgement and some discretion; if you don't, you'll make it much worse.
16. (Q) How may nausea be prevented so he may retain his food? (A) This is being given as best as we may find here. This is the fullness in the stomach, this is the mucous membranes that make for the assimilation of those infectious forces and the attempt of the system to eliminate it. Hence the necessity of keeping an antiseptic as mild as possible, and this is of that nature that is alkaline (the Glyco-Thymoline), and with the Castoria it will make for the carrying OUT through the alimentary canal.
17. (Q) Is the tar preparation advisable to use as the doctor gave? (A) As we have given, we would preferably use the Resinol - not too much of it, but sufficient that its antiseptic value and healing value may be combined with the oils and the activities of those properties indicated from camphor.
18. Do that for the present.
