Time of Reading 10:35 to 10:50 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia.
1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2289].
3. As we find, there are some acute conditions - or semi so - through which the body is passing; yet in a general way we find that the body is very good, and is developing very well.
4. Owing to some tendencies or inclinations, we would make suggestions for minor changes. Otherwise, we find that the care, the attention thus far has been VERY well.
5. Instead of Argyrol as the eye cleanser, which is not so well, we would use some mild antiseptic. Though this may be considered old fashioned, it is much preferable to those with as great an astringent in same as in this that has been used. While the conditions of the stomach and of the eyes are contributed to somewhat by the wash used, we find that it is not altogether that. But we would use the milder antiseptic, which is just as effective and not as dangerous. We would use the antiseptic that is generally used for such at the early ages; Boric Acid.
6. We would change somewhat as to the diet.
7. Do not overcrowd the stomach, or be overanxious as to the amount taken, especially through the hot months.
8. Have plenty of fruit juices - that is, orange juice, preferably - then other juices as the body develops; but do not overcrowd these through the hot months. Make the changes more in the early fall, but do not crowd them too much in the present. Just give that which it desires to take.
9. Also have plenty of strained oatmeal; but not on the same days, when the orange juice is given. Use preferably the steel cut oats, strained, and with plenty of milk.
10. The present milk formula is very good. As we have
2289-1 Page 2
indicated, do not overcrowd the stomach during the hot weather; but keep the milk fresh and prepare well. When ready to feed, add a little more lime water to each bottle - just before it is taken; three, four to five drops of lime water put in each bottle just before it is taken, see? not prepared at the time the formula is prepared, but just when each bottle is ready to be taken, see?
11. Gerber's vegetables are best - of all kinds.
12. Keep in the open as much as possible - in the air, see?
13. Yes, owing to the general strength and tendency of the body in the bone structure, there IS the inclination for not sufficient calcium. Thus it would be well for the body to have the Haliver Oil, rather than the Cod Liver Oil. This prepared by the company that makes same in the form of pellets will be very well. The body will be able to take same without choking, provided it is given at or in the meals.
14. Also each evening when ready to retire, as well as each morning after the bath, we would massage the spine well with Cocoa Butter; not so much as to become disturbing, but sufficient that the properties may be absorbed by the system. Also massage this down the limbs, especially the under side - and thoroughly into the spine. This as we find should keep the body in its correct developing stages.
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) What causes him to pull his head to the left at times? (A) This is more the imagination, or trying to be cute, than it is any physical defect. Those tendencies which arise, as we have indicated, would be corrected by the massage twice a day and by the extra vitamins.
17. (Q) What should be done to straighten his legs? Is he bowlegged? (A) He is not bowlegged; just the inclination as we have indicated. Give the Halibut or Haliver, and make for plenty of vitamins B and B-1 in the foods when these are given.
18. (Q) Has cutting six teeth at one time anything to do with it? (A) As indicated, this has much to do with the using up of so much of the necessary food values in the system to make bone structure.
19. (Q) Is his stomach strong and in good condition? (A) This will depend upon the carrying out of those things indicated. In the present it is very well. The heat and the cutting of teeth, of course, will tend to upset the stomach. Use Castoria at such times as a balancer.
20. We are through for the present.
