Time of Reading 3:30 to 3:45 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1633].
2. As we find, while many conditions in the reactions of the physical forces of the body appear to be near to normal, there are those conditions which exist between the lymphatic and the sympathetic nervous system that without correction cause reactions which are at times called neuritis or rheumatic conditions. These cause a great deal of distress in local or specific portions of the body.
3. And these may change according to the position of the pressures upon the sympathetic nervous system.
4. These conditions as we find arise from the after effects of what was intestinal flu, wherein the lymphatic and emunctory circulation was effected; through the lymph forces of the whole of the abdominal area, covering not only those areas along the caecum but portions through the colon and jejunum.
5. Thus we find adherent conditions, and the inclination for there to be disturbances with the eliminations; and pressures upon the nervous system cause a great deal of distress.
6. Taken in time, and with persistent and consistent reactions or applications, we may eliminate these causes and thus bring a great deal nearer to normal forces for this body than those which disturb in the present.
7. The circulatory forces as related to heart's action are near normal. Most of the nerve reflexes are good. The heart's action only at times gives disturbance.
8. The liver excretory forces and as related to the assimilation in general are good. However, at times when there are those pressures or inclinations for the forming of clots and adherence through especially the right portion of the system and as related to the jejunum and through the ileum plexus, these may cause an intermittent or an abnormal flow to the activity of the heart - and thus produce an
1633-1 Page 2
abnormal pressure.
9. As we find, we would keep the manipulative forces AND the corrections; though we would have, with the corrections; more of the vibrations from the electrically driven vibrator along the cerebrospinal system and over portions of the abdominal area; especially along the right side and across the diaphragm area. If the sponge applicator is used on the bodily forces, and the suction or rubber applicator along the cerebrospinal system, it would be the better.
10. Also we would take internally a compound prepared in this manner:
11. To 4 ounces of Distilled Water add 2 ounces of Strained (Pure) Honey. Allow this to come to a boil. Skim off the refuse forces before it is entirely cool, and add 2 ounces of Gordon's Gin. Then add: Essence (or a fusion) of Wild Ginseng..........1/2 ounce, Essence of Wild Ginger (now, there's a difference in these; one is Ginseng, the other is Ginger!).............1/4 ounce, Essence (or fusion) of Indian Turnip...........1/4 ounce, Tincture of Stillingia.........................1/2 ounce. Shake the solution before the dose is taken, which would be a teaspoonful three times each day, just after the meals.
12. Do these; taking the compound, the manipulations and the massage with the electrically driven vibrator; and take care as to the diet:
13. Eliminate all of white bread and white potatoes, unless the jackets of the white potatoes are taken. No fried foods of any kind. Beans - that is, dried beans - should not be seasoned too highly. All of the vegetables that grow above the ground are preferable, though those under the ground if taken raw would be very well; and there should be raw vegetables as a portion of the meal once each day. For such a salad carrots, onions and the like may be used, with radishes - but use the tops of the radishes also. Grind these together with celery, lettuce and the like. This should be a part of some meal during the day.
14. No hog meats ever of any character. Not too much of coffee or tea, but preferably cereal drinks. If coffee is taken at all, not with milk in same.
15. Do these, and by the time the second quantity of the compound is taken, the conditions should be eliminated from the system.
16. When there is any trouble with the eliminations (which at times will arise), depending upon the physical and mental
1633-1 Page 3
reactions as well as the character of the diet, we would use enemas rather than laxatives or cathartics.
17. And we will bring the normal forces, or near to same, for this body, [1633].
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) Should the corrections be made osteopathically or chiropractically? (A) These will depend upon the body itself; but if the corrections are made by adjustments chiropractically, then USE the vibratory forces with same as indicated. If the osteopathic method is used, with the general massage that goes with same, the vibrator treatments would not be so necessary; though the vibrator may be used by the body itself - except, of course, along the portions of the spine.
20. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file
