Time of Reading Set bet. 10:30 to 11:30 A. M. Taken 11:00 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Illinois.
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, [4048].
3. In giving the disturbances as we find with this body, there are many conditions to be taken into consideration. The activities in experiences in the earth have brought about much of that which is the experience of the entity today. These are the results of glandular disturbance. This, as every activity of glands that is controlled by the sympathetic impulses, is a part of the whole consciousness of the entity; as are many of the activities of the organs in the sensory system. They are not necessarily merely physical results in the present, nor are they to be considered as such in making administrations that would be of material aid. To be sure, there are pathological conditions, as is indicated by the gradual growth of the disturbance in the inability of the entity to control the voluntary muscular forces and nerves of locomotion. Unless there are those measures taken that will cause the spiritual and mental body also to respond, very little may be of any permanent relief to the body in this particular experience.
4. The chemical forces of the body, or balance, are the material or pathological disturbance; and thus there is gradually used up by the system the stamina that is part of nerve energy or the reflexes as sometimes termed white and gray matter. The entity receives the impulses for activity, but the ability to control, or to have through the brain center itself sufficient activity to control same, is lacking. This indicates how each cellular force of the body-activity is a part of the oneness of the whole

condition.
5. As we find, first change the mental attitude. Begin with that application of that which the entity may gain from spiritual and mental concept. True, body and mind are the controlling factors. For mind is ever the builder. This, then, would be begun by applying that which the entity knows is of spiritual import in the experience of the entity. Do that first.
6. Begin with these as the basis or principles: Exodus 19:5, Deuteronomy 30, St. John 14, 15, 16, 17. Know the speech, know the promise from the Father is to thee. Will ye accept it?
7. Then in the material or physical, begin and apply the Wet Cell Appliance. This should carry in the beginning only Chloride of Gold vibratorially to the body. Make the regular strength, which has been indicated, with the solutions for the low form of electrical vibration.
8. The attachment with the small copper plate would be to the 4th lumbar or at the lumbar axis, while the larger plate, through which the solution passes to the body, would be attached at umbilical and lacteal duct plexus. This, for this body, would be the width of three fingers from the navel center and two fingers up to the right from the navel. This would be attached one-half an hour each day.
9. Change the charging solution every thirty days. Change the Gold Solution every fifteen days. Do take the connections from the solution when not in use. Do keep the plates very clean.
10. Follow the applications of the Wet Cell Appliance (when it is taken off) with a thorough massage of the whole cerebrospinal system and across the diaphragm, the lower extremities also. Begin at the toes and massage through bursae of the feet and the calf of the leg and the knees and along the sciatic centers with this combination of oils: Olive Oil......................2 ounces, Peanut Oil.....................2 ounces, Lanolin (melted).............1/4 ounce.
11. Do in the diet add, or supplement the diet with, the B-1 vitamin, especially, or B-1 complex. Do have a great deal of seafoods as portions of the diet. A great deal of fowl. Rather than the choice pieces of fowl, preferably eat the bony pieces, and do eat the neck and feet or any of the structural portion of the fowl. Do not take either of these fried, but broiled or smothered or prepared in the ways in which the bones of the small fowl may be eaten. Have plenty of raw vegetables also, especially carrots, lettuce, celery,

watercress; all of these should be portions of the diet prepared often with gelatin.
12. All of this done, we will gain strength.
13. Ready for questions.
14. (Q) What can I do for the hay fever and seasonal asthma? (A) Do these things that we have indicated. For these will correct the subluxations, by the massage along the whole cerebrospinal system, that causes the disturbance. Then with the changes wrought in the vibratory forces of the body, relief from all of the disturbance would or should come. Do keep in the open when it is practical. Do use the body or exercise, though do not strain the body.
