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, [3484].
3. As we find, there are conditions that disturb the better physical forces of the body. While these may appear to indicate the existence of most every disturbance, we find that they would respond to the correction of those vital forces as related to the assimilating and the eliminating systems.
4. These are the conditions, then, as we find them with this body, [3484] we are speaking of, present in this room:
5. The blood supply indicates those disturbances through the eliminating channels, so that there are poisons or toxic conditions carried through the circulation. At various times these effect organs or the organic funtionings of the body; as indicated in the conditions existent in the alimentary canal itself, also the disturbances which have existed in the duodenum or in the pyloric portion of the stomach where there are indications of thickened walls.
6. No ulcerations or lacerations are indicated in the present, though there are smoothed conditions in the duodenum and a lack of proper amounts of hydrochlorics in the gastric flows through these portions of the digestion.
7. Also there is indicated in the circulation that still there are some congestions in the soft tissue of the antrum and the mastoid area, and in the conditions about the head. These lack proper drainage. These bring about the feeling of lethargy at periods; the body becomes tired, weary. Aggravating conditions at times are produced in the mental forces, making the body dislike itself and also making it hard for the body to get along with others. These are just

reflexes.
8. A disturbance between liver and kidneys is indicated in the circulation, though we do not find organic troubles in any of these disorders - rather functional. These might easily become the sources or areas from which greater disorders might arise, in lungs, liver, kidneys, antrum, stomach - if there were such disturbances or congestions as to set up infection, or vice versa.
9. In meeting these conditions in the present, these may be eliminated.
10. First there should be begun a series of hydrotherapy treatments to set up eliminations systematically. These should include a colonic irrigation at least every two weeks, until there is no indication through the waters of any toxic forces or mucous in the colon area.
11. Follow each of these with a light cabinet sweat; not too much of this should be with dry heat, else it would for this body become too disturbing, but have it rather in the form of a Fume Bath, preferably using Witchhazel and a little Olive Oil - for this particular body.
12. Such a Fume Bath should be followed with a thorough massage of the spinal areas, the chest and limbs, the whole torso, and especially in those areas of the diaphragm and liver, and in the areas about the caecum. Use this combination of oils: Peanut Oil.....................2 ounces, Olive Oil......................2 ounces, Lanolin (liquefied)..........1/4 ounce. Also massage these oils over the throat, face, the mastoid area, the nose and nasal passages; and we will eliminate the conditions of the face, we will remove the tendency for roughness of throat at times; and with better conditions through the alimentary canal, the adding of the proper balance in phosphorous, iron and silicon for better digestion and better activity of the liver (through the taking of the properties) we will indicate), we will relieve those tensions through the area of the prostates, the bladder and kidneys, and the general condition of body will be improved. Do that.
13. The Fume Baths should be given each week for five to six weeks. Then leave off three to four weeks, and then have another series of five or six of these.
14. After the first series, when the body had been cleansed well, we would begin with a tonic as may be found in the compound called KalDak. Take one heaping teaspoonful each

day, about the same time each day - not one time taking it at eight o'clock, the next time eleven, the next time three or four, but choose a definite period each day for taking it and take it at that time! Dissolve it in a small quantity of very hot water - not scalding, but hot water, then fill the glass with milk, stir thoroughly and drink.
15. Do these and we will find much bettered conditions throughout the body.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) What can be done for ears? (A) Do what we have been telling you! and it will be well for your ears, also for your toes!
18. (Q) Any special diet? (A) A well balanced diet. At least three times each week have almost a full meal of raw vegetables. These should be included at various times; carrots grated, chopped or cut, lettuce, celery, and especially water cress. Such things should be taken three to four times each week. If these are sometimes prepared with geletin it will be much the better.
19. (Q) What is best procedure for care of teeth? (A) Have local attention and then take care of the teeth. Use an equal combination of salt and soda for massaging the gums and teeth - don't use a brush, use your finger!
20. (Q) Is the body sterile? What can be done? (A) The body is not sterile! Nothing can be done! Only those activities are needed for a better balance for the whole glandular system. Do those things indicated.
21. (Q) Should I go back to working on the sea or remain in present position? (A) Remain in the present position - this is best for the time being.
22. (Q) Should I stop smoking? (A) Not necessarily. Just be moderate about it. Do those things outlined and we will have better conditions for this body, physically and mentally. And in the spiritual life, have an ideal. Work towards that, spiritually, mentally and materially. Don't put the material first, for you have to live with yourself a long, long while! Become acquainted with yourself. Know yourself and the relationship to the Creative Forces.
