Time of Reading Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Ohio.

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, [5039].

3. As we find, there are disturbances that interfere with the better physical functioning. These, as we find, the real sources of same, are from subluxations existing in the upper dorsal areas. The incoordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal system in this area brings rather definite disturbances to the mucous membranes of throat, nasal passages and the lymph circulation through soft tissue of throat, head and the areas of antrum, nasal passages, even at times to the mastoid areas. Unless these are changed they may eventually produce a greater disturbance to bronchi and larynx.

4. This makes the body very susceptible to inflammation as a result of pollens, dust and odors, for it accentuates the olfactory and the lymph circulation.

5. These, as we find, are the sources of the disturbances.

6. We would osteopathically correct the conditions through the cervical and upper dorsal area, coordinating the rest of the cerebrospinal system with same occasionally. Thus we will remove the sources.

7. For the acute conditions we would prepare an inhalant.

8. To four ounces of pure grain alcohol, add in the order named: Oil of Eucalyptus...............20 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp............3 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin....15 minims, Tolu in Solution................10 minims. Put these ingredients in a six to eight ounce large-mouthed

bottle, preferably prepared so that two vents may enter the container. These vents should be made with glass tubes or the like so that they may be corked tightly.

9. When this is to be inhaled in throat and nasal passages, remove both small corks, after shaking the solution, and inhale the fumes that arise from same. Do this once or twice or three times a day if there is irritation or the tendency for sneezing or the tendency for the lymph circulation to cause the excretions from the throat or the nasal passages.

10. Keep away from a great quantity of sweets or starches. Have very little Irish potatoes, then, though yams or the sweet potato may be taken, also turnips - but these in very small quantities and seldom. Little or no white bread. Doing these we will find that we will bring better conditions for this body.

11. Ready for questions.

12. (Q) Would a change of climate make any difference? If so, what climate would be best? (A) Change of climate will be beneficial but you would have to remain where those pressures were such. But if the sources and causes will be removed, the body may remain in most any climate it chooses. Do the things outlined and we will have better conditions for the body.

13. We are through with this Reading. Two copies to Self (one for the Osteopath - Please let us have the name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass'n file " under case number for indexing (See illustration [which was enclosed] for preparing the type bottle to be used as inhalant.)
