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, [3683].
3. As we find physically, there is a complication of disturbances. Yet we find that the greater portion of these would respond, if better coordination were produced between the organs of the central circulation - lungs, heart, liver, kidneys. For, as we find, at various periods there are distresses in the system from one or all of these disturbances, or these organs; yet that which control through circulation through mastication or assimilation is controlled primarily through the activity of the liver, as it is related to the other organs.
4. Thus we find that if physical measures were taken to correct the activities of the liver, as it supplies activities through the greater portion of the system, the other organs would respond - the kidneys, which at times cause a great deal of distress by the continued or overactivity. Thus those attempts of the body to eliminate poisons become disturbing, as when the body attempts to rest or lies down - so that the kidneys and bladder become disturbing. At times there are pressures in the lungs, at others irregularity of heart. The activities of the liver, especially the right lobe, cause a disturbance to the pancreas and the spleen. Thus, if we would relieve the tensions here, the greater portion of the disturbances through the body would be alleviated.
5. We would begin first, then, by making this application to the body:
6. Apply hot Castor Oil Packs for an hour each day for at least five days in succession, over the liver and extending

to the caecum area. Keep this heated as much as the body can stand, but not sufficient to be disagreeable, just so there may be the absorption of the oils. When the Pack is removed each time, bathe off with a weak soda water.
7. On the third day of using these Packs, begin taking internally small quantities of Olive Oil; about half a teaspoonful two to three to four times a day.
8. When the Packs have been given for five days, leave off a period of three days; then begin again, applying the Packs for another five days.
9. Gradually, then, if the body will absorb it, increase the quantity of the Olive Oil, until there have been thorough eliminations.
10. Then have, after the second series, two or three colonic irrigations, scientifically given, gentle but thoroughly, until there is no mucous indicated in the discharges. These should be at least seven to eight days apart. Use body temperature water, so that there is not a strain upon the colon. To each gallon of water, put a heaping teaspoonful of table salt and a level teaspoonful of baking soda, thoroughly dissolved.
11. In the rinse water for the colonic put a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the quart of water.
12. Thus these will not cause too great an anxiety or be a great strain on the body.
13. These do, and then after resting a period begin with osteopathic adjustments; beginning with the corrections of a relaxing and not a stimulating nature. These should be made specifically in the 3rd and 4th cervicals, as well as the upper cervicals; 2nd and 3rd dorsal, 9th dorsal, and then throughout the sacral and lumbar areas; relaxing the body thoroughly.
14. Throughout the periods of using the Oil Packs and taking the colonics, not a great deal of solid foods should be taken but semi-solids and semi-liquids, including a great deal of water cress, lettuce, celery, carrots, beets and the like. These should be prepared in various manners. Prepare them oft with gelatin, for this carries a vitamin necessary in body-forces.
15. When corrections are made and there is the beginning of the osteopathic adjustments (and there should be at least fifteen) increase or supplement the diet with quantities of A and D and B-1. These may be added better, as we find, in those combinations that are prepared in One-A-Day A and D tablets and One-A-Day B complex tablets.
16. Do these and we will get better results and conditions, better control over the activities of this body.

17. Ready for questions.
18. (Q) Why cannot she talk? (A) These are the disturbances with the sensory system from the central nervous system. She can talk but there is the lack of ability to control emotions.
19. (Q) Can anything be done to ease her pain when these attacks occur? (A) This may be done best by the administration of those things suggested. When there are the severe attacks, there needs to be better eliminations, and these will alleviate pain. Do the things given.
20. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Niece (one for the osteopath) Copy to Ass'n file (For the osteopathic treatments, we would refer you to Dr. Marion Dick, 5041 Spruce St., Philadelphia, Penna., who has had experience with following the readings and would be very interested in working on this case. See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Castor Oil Packs.)
