1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We find a great deal of reverting to old disturbances, where there is the lack of the proper vitality being carried through the system - as there has been a general inclination through the body for tissue in circulation to separate.
3. This causes a great deal of poison and toxic forces to arise throughout the body, tending to produce inflammation at times between the lymph and the regular circulation.
4. These, of course, indicate the abilities of the body to become subject to infectious forces.
5. As we have outlined heretofore, the general stimulation to the central nervous system by gentle osteopathic manipulations is very helpful.
6. Also we find at the present time that a great deal of hydrotherapy would be most helpful for the body; not necessarily taken more often than once a week, but at such periods we would at least twice a month have also the high colonic irrigation, as well as the Fume Baths (not too much) from such as Pine Oil or Wintergreen. Such a Fume Bath would be taken, with a little of the Dry Heat at the same time, and then a thorough rubdown afterwards with first the salt rum and then after that a thorough rubdown with rub alcohol.
7. These, with the general manipulations as we have indicated heretofore, should bring about a disappearance of the headaches, the lack of the ability to sleep, the languid and tired feeling especially from the hips downward; and the appetite will also be much better.
8. Keep away from those things that are too much of a starchy nature. Have plenty of those that are body-building - which necessarily means SOME starches combined with such as green vegetables - beans, lentils and

such natures that have combinations of iron with the other properties; as well as butterbeans, shelled beans and peas and the like occasionally. Fish, fowl and lamb should be the principal meats. All of these would be most helpful for this body.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What shall I do for the spot under my arm? (A) This as we find will be relieved by the daily application of an ointment prepared in this manner: Take Plantain - that grows about the yard, you see - and bruise and cook this with thick cream, and then apply as a lotion.
11. (Q) The pain at times on the left side of chest? (A) This should be relieved by the manipulations.
12. (Q) What is it that comes in front of my eyes? (A) The weakness, the nerve fatigue.
13. (Q) What is the pain in my back? (A) The effect of the poisons upon the general system, as has been indicated in the first portion of that given. Do those things as outlined; we will find the better condition for this body.
