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: (In locating the body - said in undertone, "Cold and snow" - )
3. Yes.
4. Now, as we find, conditions are rather serious, and there is quite a complication of disturbances. Yet with consistency, patience and persistency, these may be materially aided - if there would be the administering, conscientiously and prayerfully, the applications as may be indicated.
5. These are the disturbances as we find; from the conditions resulting from the absorption of a great deal of toxic forces, there is a form of anemia that has so upset the body as to prevent the proper coagulation through the system. Also the effect of these toxic forces and the poor elimination cause the neurotic and neuritic pressures on the nervous system.
6. Combined with those conditions respecting the kidneys and liver, there is caused the complication of conditions that produces too much of uric acid, or that of a rheumatic reaction - but with the neuritic effect it becomes inflammatory - even in a depleted body.
7. As we find, we would begin with the application for one hour each day of the hot Castor Oil Packs over the abdominal area, but not over the area where there is the disturbance from the operative forces; especially the left side. Do this an hour each day for three days, see.
8. Then have an enema. Do not in the beginning attempt to give too high an enema, but gradually cleanse the system. Have the water body-temperature, and to each gallon put a level teaspoonful of table salt and a level teaspoonful of

baking soda, dissolved thoroughly. Use this as the cleansing solution, to prevent too great a weakness. In the last rinse water put a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the gallon. This last may be a mite cooler, but should not be so cold as to cause too great a contraction.
9. Rest then one day, and have another three-day series of the Castor Oil Packs; followed by another enema, and so on, see?
10. Do give the camphorated oil massage around the area where the wound was made here in the central portion and right side, see?
11. Do take into the system a small amount - three to six drops - of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin each day; this preferably after whatever meal is the heaviest that the body takes during any one day.
12. The diet should be of soups, vegetables as well as meats - but not too much grease in these. And beef juice - this should be taken as medicine, about three hours apart taking nearly a teaspoonful, but be at least two minutes in sipping that quantity, letting it dissolve or be absorbed in the mouth, see, and gradually swallowed.
13. Do these at least until there is a better condition in the pressures on the general nerve forces.
14. Have a gentle massage daily, each evening, with Peanut Oil - along the spine and over the limbs - these especially; and this should be given when the body is prepared to rest of an evening.
15. After six weeks we will give further instructions, if there is the consistent use and application of these suggestions we have given.
16. We are through for the present. Two copies to [Mother] - Air Mail Copy to Ass'n file (See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Castor Oil Packs, also Beef Juice.) .)
