1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes - some little better from the acute conditions, which as we find have arisen from overacidity and the general strain that makes for the glandular disturbance with the throat, chest and bowels.
3. In the present, we would first give half a teaspoonful of Milk of Bismuth with six drops of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin in same.
4. Then, within an hour, begin with the broken doses of Castoria. Give ten drops every thirty minutes.
5. When this has been given for about three to four hours (keep this up afterward, but) begin with six to eight drops of Syrup of Squill, about every two hours apart; but keep up the Castoria until there are full eliminations.
6. Start the eliminations well by giving a douche or enema, using body-temperature water, of course, with Glyco-Thymoline in same; this to be given after about the first to second hour of giving the Castoria, see?
7. Massage the throat and chest with Camphorated Oil, followed with the Musterole - this of course weak strength for children of this age, and this especially over the sides of the glands of the throat, and will be well if this is massaged also across the stomach.
8. Keep the feet warm by massaging them with warm sweet oil or Camphorated Oil, and keep them wrapped well.
9. As to the feeding - let there be little of those things hard to assimilate. Use rather the regular foods, but not too much of same.
10. These are the better conditions for the body.
11. We are through for the present. Copy to Mother - Wired also " " Ass'n file
