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, [2921].
3. As we find, there are rather those conditions that are tendencies, or inclinations, that are gradually building or producing deflections that may cause a great deal of disturbance later; and these might be more easily adjusted correctly in the present then when there has been built those disturbances in the organs of the body, as to produce some organic deflection - if not organic disturbances.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2921] we are speaking of:
5. The circulation in both the superficial and the deeper circulation indicates a disturbance in the metabolism of the body. The irregularity of the heart's activity, the tendencies for certain types of digestive reaction indicate a thyroid obstruction. This might easily become of such natures as to produce a growth, or that as might become of the strangular nature; thus necessitating a very definite and delicate operation - unless means are made for correction.
6. This also, in the type or nature of same, indicates that there is an activity of the glandular nature forming in the digestive forces, that produces an excess of sugar. This is working towards a disturbance with the kidneys. And, combined with some disturbance through the whole of the glandular forces, disturbances are produced in the pelvic organs.
7. As indicated, these in their present condition represent tendencies, but become aggravating to the body and to functioning of organs, and disturbing at times. And these might easily undermine the better conditions of this

physical body.
8. From the sources of the nerve system we find causes for the nervous disorders at times, the causing of the sudden noises, excitements or repressions or depression, upsetting the whole of the nervous equilibrium. But the sources of much of these also arise from subluxations or incoordinations produced in the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nervous system.
9. Thus there will be found, definitely, in the 3rd and 4th dorsal a subluxation to the right. This in its nature affects the glands as related to the thyroid, or the circular muscular forces there, and produces irritations under certain distresses. Also it affects the glands from the 3rd and 4th, from the pancrean reaction. Thus the combination produces an excess in weight for the body, and a condition that destroys the better equilibrium between kidneys and liver.
10. These also will and do at times affect the eyes, the lachrymal ducts, the activity to the body forces. These are reflexes, not organic disturbances. And, as indicated, they are tendencies from which greater distress may come unless corrections are made.
11. As we find, in making applications that would be beneficial.
12. First, we would begin with taking Atomidine internally; one drop in half a glass of water each morning before any meal is taken, for five days; then leave off five days, then take again, and so on. At least twice each month take it in this manner, for two series of five days, you see, with a rest period.
13. After the second series, begin with adjustments made osteopathically to relieve those tensions specifically in the upper dorsal area; coordinating the upper cervicals with also the lumbar and sacral axis being adjusted to such corrections.
14. As we find, there would be required about eight or ten treatments in the first series; a rest period then from these for two to three weeks, and then another series.
15. Take four times each day at least two ounces of grape juice (Welch's preferably); this with one ounce of plain water, not carbonated water; about thirty minutes before each meal and at bedtime.
16. Keep away from carbonated drinks of any kind. These are irritating to the conditions.
17. Keep away from too much starches. While the taking of the grape juice will, to be sure, tend to make the desire less for sweets, do beware of sweets - or any that add an
2921-1 Page 3
extra quantity of sugars to the body - until corrections have been made.
18. Do these, and we will make better conditions for this body.
19. Ready for questions.
20. (Q) Do I have a goitre? (A) Read what has been given. You are in a good position, or condition, to eventually have a very serious character of goitre; not in the present.
21. (Q) Why have I gained so much unnatural flesh? (A) As just indicated; the disturbances or tendencies affect those portions of the body that tends to bloat, rather than produce solid flesh.
22. (Q) Am I in any condition to have a child now? (A) Not in the present. It would be well when there are those corrections made, for this would be in keeping with best conditions for the body. Keep the mental attitude ever constructive or creative; less and less faultfinding with others, more and more constructive to all.
23. We are through for the present. Two copies to Self (one to be taken to Dr. Beard after the second series of Atomidine) Copy to Ass'n file
