1. EC: Yes, we have the body. The conditions as we find are showing for improvements. There must be precautions taken in making for the proper coordinating of the gastric flows in the digestive system, and not allowing for the accumulations in the areas where the depressions and the repressions have caused the disturbances.
2. Be mindful of the diet; taking now more of the GENERAL diet, but making for that which is strengthening but tending for that which is for the activity through the alimentary canal.
3. Begin with now the doses of Milk of Magnesia to make for an alkalinity throughout the intestinal tract. Take about a tablespoonful for two days, each evening for two days.
4. Then the next evening take a teaspoonful of Milk of Bismuth with six drops of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin in same, stirred in a whole glass of water.
5. The next day take one tablespoonful of the Milk of Magnesia.
6. Rest then for five days from any of the general stimulants, but be mindful that the activities from the alimentary canal are kept, by the use even of the colonic irrigations.
7. Keep the body rather quiet, but we should be rid of these congestions.
8. A gentle massage - not of the packs again, unless the pains recur, but a gentle massage or the electrically driven vibrator over the spinal system will be helpful and allow for rest.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What causes shortness of breath? (A) The tendency for the stomach and the gastric flows to same to regurgitate, producing a pressure upon the diaphragm and the lower portion of the lung itself. Hence the alkalinizing and the absorptions that should pass through

the system.
11. (Q) Why the pain across the back now? (A) This is more reflex than a direct condition. This is the strain gradually being eliminated. Make for those activities as given and all of these should soon disappear.
