Time of Reading 3:40 to 4:00 P. M. Eastern War Time. New York City.
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; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. As we find, there are conditions which prevent the better physical functionings throughout the body. These have specifically to do with the effect produced in the activity of organs of the sensory system, as related to the glandular forces and general health of the body.
4. Oft, where such conditions are manifested as indicated here, disturbances arise as related to the functioning of organs acted upon by the glandular forces, combined with the eliminating channels when any accentuated reaction is set up, when the eliminating forces are blocked in any manner. And the general conditions, so far as other organisms are concerned, may appear in a very good state - while those upon which is fastened the effects of this non-coordination in the eliminating system become much disturbed.
5. This may happen from a physical condition or a psychopathic condition, or from a purely psychic condition, or a combination of these.
6. These become especially effective or active when such has to do or deals with the organs of the sensory forces. For, these are the reactions to the delicate organisms of the combination of influences between mind and body, spirit and mind, and the functionings purely of the sympathetic organisms of the body.
7. Here, as we find, there has been in some times back a deflection from a pressure in the cerebrospinal system, and a deflection in the activities of the eliminating forces of the body, especially as related to the adrenal glands and their effect upon the kidneys. And the effect upon the activity of the organs of the optic force itself produces a skim, or an engorgement, which - with its very self -

produces the slowness of eliminations through the optic forces themselves.
8. This has been experienced in one of the eyes, particularly upon which there have been measures taken to remove the deflected forces - or the poisons, or accumulations of poisons not eliminated through their normal channels. But the trouble not being removed, these have returned with more violence in the reaction upon the other optic - though not causing such excruciating pain save at times.
9. As we find, we would have the adjustments in the cerebrospinal system of those deflections and subluxations that exist in the areas of the 7th, 8th and 9th dorsal, in the upper portion of the 9th, and through the 1st and 2nd dorsals and through the cervical centers that reach directly to the optic forces.
10. These, as we find, would be done by such an one as Dobbins. We would first have at least two of such adjustments within at least two days of each other.
11. Also we would use those stimulating measures through hydrotherapy to produce coordinating activities in eliminations between the alimentary canal and the respiratory and perspiratory system, as to relieve these disturbances, or to bring back to the body more of health-giving forces and allowing the poisons that accumulate to be eliminated through their normal channels. Thus operative forces may be prevented, and there may be the prolonging or the making of better reactions to the vision itself.
12. We would have a series of three or four of such thorough hydrotherapy treatments, see? These we would have by such as Reilly. Use the Fume Bath first. Do not raise the temperature of the body too high. But within a Dry Heat Cabinet use the Fume Bath. For this body, we would have two the first week - say one on Monday or Tuesday and the other on Friday or Saturday. We would use in the first a teaspoonful of Atomidine in the pint of boiling water, so that the fumes settle over the body. In the last, or the next Fume Bath, use two teaspoonsful of Witchhazel in the pint of boiling water for the fumes. Following the Fume Bath have a thorough rubdown, followed with the hot and cold needle shower, see? Then the rubdown with a combination of oils in these proportions: Olive Oil..............2 ounces, Peanut Oil.............2 ounces, Lanolin, dissolved.....1 dram.

13. Then follow this with the alcohol rub. Have four of these in two weeks.
14. Then begin again with the series of osteopathic adjustments, twice a week - until there is complete alignment through the cerebrospinal system. This should be accomplished in at least ten to twelve to fifteen such adjustments.
15. During the periods be very sure that there is at least once each day a raw, green vegetable as part of the diet; including especially grated carrots raw, with lettuce and celery, some beets, as well as mustard greens - if practical.
16. No hog meats at any time. Liver, tripe, pig knuckles, - these we would have in abundance; also fish or sea foods of all kinds. Little of beef. Of course, fowl may be taken in moderation.
17. Plenty of cooked vegetables, and keep more to those that grow above rather than those grown below the ground.
18. Do these and we should bring better forces for this body, and prevent the necessity for operative measures.
19. Ready for questions.
20. (Q) Is anything wrong with sinuses? (A) Nothing wrong that will not be corrected, if these other applications will be given. There's something wrong, sure - these are deflected because they are a part of the pressures from the adrenals and the kidneys upon the poor coordination in the circulation. Do these things, if we would bring better forces for this body.
21. We are through for the present. Two copies to Husband (one for Dr. Frank Dobbins, 551 Fifth Ave., N.Y.C.)
