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. As we find, there are disturbing conditions. There has been a gradual increasing in the lack of activity of the liver and gall duct area, with the accumulation not of stones but of gravel in the gall duct itself. This tends to produce activities that prevent a normal elimination and the normal flow of the gastric juices that keep certain elements out of the system by the poor assimilation; making then rather a complex reaction. For there have been those quantities of foods and of medicinal properties that have caused an excess alkalinity. Thus the reaction existing between the circulation in liver and kidneys is gradually, through this alkalinity, causing irritation to the bladder and the tubes through which the urine passes.

3. As we find, in making applications for helpful forces for this body:

4. We would begin applying Castor Oil Packs for one hour each day over the liver and gall duct area, extending down to the lower portion of the caecum on the right side, just as hot as the body can well stand without blistering. Do this for one hour each day for three days in succession. Each time when removing the Pack sponge off the area with a weak soda water and then massage into the abdomen and the whole right side, this combination of oils: Olive Oil.............2 ounces, Peanut Oil............2 ounces, Lanolin (melted)....1/4 ounce.

5. After the third day, take internally two tablespoonfuls of Olive Oil.

6. Then leave off the Packs until the next week and apply

them again for three days in succession, the same three days, each time using the oil massage and following each series taking the Olive Oil internally.

7. After the second series of the Packs, begin taking Acigest [Hydrochloric Acid in a form easily assimilated] once or twice a week at first and then three times each week, but at a regular time; a teaspoonful stirred in a glass of raw milk, preferably taken at the evening meal.

8. Keep up the massage. Leave off extra vitamins during this period. Thus we will eliminate the sources of the conditions.

9. Do have through the period at least two high colonic irrigations, scientifically given. These should be about ten days to two weeks apart.

10. Doing these we will bring better conditions for this body.

11. Ready for questions.

12. (Q) What causes bitter taste in mouth? (A) This is the activity of the liver, with the lack of the gastric flow in the duodenum or regurgitation in the stomach.

13. (Q) Should I continue with the "herbs" prescribed or vitamins? (A) Leave these off until these treatments are completed, or until we have given several series of the Castor Oil Packs - when we should find much better conditions for the body.

14. (Q) Should I continue Lacto-Dextrin? (A) We have just given to leave off all of these until after there has been the cleansing through the applications suggested here. When there has been a cleansing, we find that liver juices, liver extract, beef, or beef, iron and wine (Wyeth's) would be well. These carry most of the vitamins needed. Take this as a tonic, a dessert spoonful once each day.

15. (Q) What causes morning lameness? (A) Pressures in the abdominal areas and the conditions in liver, gall duct and caecum area. Do those things indicated.
