1. HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes - we have the body, [1433].
3. Conditions are changed somewhat since we have last had it here. In some respects the changes in environment are very well; in others they are not so good. Much of that as may be accomplished will depend upon the attitude the body takes to the surroundings and the applications as may be made.
4. In the general physical forces - these we find also show a great deal of change; some for good, some not so good.
5. One thing will be necessary - that there is at least one movement each day from the alimentary canal; else the tendencies of the poisons to make pressures upon the sympathetic nervous system will be, and are, inclined to make for the palsied activities in the system to be increased.
6. Keep the applications of the Wet Cell Appliance with those properties indicated, in the manner outlined. Do not make too tight a connection with the body, but firm; and have the plates clean or polished before and after using.
7. The manipulative forces and massages should be kept very much in the manner as has been outlined; making or giving specific attention to the brachial center and the lumbar axis. And coordinate all areas where there is the particular coordination between cerebrospinal and the sympathetic nervous system - through the connections in the segments along the cerebrospinal system.
8. The massage for the limbs, as well as the locomotory centers, should be kept intact.
9. The diet should carry those things of a laxative nature, carrying some bulk and some activity of the system, as well

as that which is body and blood building.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given? (A) Twice each week at least; three times when practical.
12. (Q) Is it necessary to continue the sinusoidal as suggested? (A) It is necessary if there would be brought the better condition!
13. (Q) Should this be given just before the osteopathic treatment? (A) Preferably.
14. (Q) Is the combination of peanut oil and olive oil the best solution for the massage? (A) In the present; but do not depend upon these. Let these be merely as an aid in giving the massage. Give it in a circular motion.
15. (Q) Should the Toris Compound be continued? (A) When it is needed, as we have indicated. Judgements are to be used as to these - and give same according to the activity of the eliminations, see? The sinusoidal is to be given much in the same way, except this works with the nervous systems more; while the ingredients in the medicinal compound, of course, work with the flow of the effluvia in the lymph circulation to cause greater peristaltic movement. If it is needed, give it. If it is not needed, don't. Judgements are to be used, to be sure.
16. (Q) Should the Oil Packs be given regularly? (A) They should; once a day, and for how long depends upon what is necessary - whether an hour, ten hours, twelve hours or what! One hour is the usual time required for proper absorption. These should be continued each day until better eliminations are set up through the alimentary canal, and then repeated later as they become necessary.
17. (Q) Any suggestions regarding the environment or surroundings? (A) As indicated, the response will depend upon the body's reaction to same. Naturally, this will depend upon how those about the body react to the needs of the body.
18. We are through with this Reading. Two copies to Self Copy to Ass'n file (See extra sheet [which was enclosed] of further suggestions for Osteopath.) th.)
