Time of Reading 4:05 to 4:20 P. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Utah.
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, in a bad condition for a young man!
3. As we find, there are disturbances which have been very poorly taken care of at times.
4. These began from a catarrhal condition that existed in the nasal passages and the sinus, and in the soft tissue of head and throat.
5. The removal of same, not removing the causes, has brought about those reactions that are not good for the body; though only sympathetically do we find the lungs or the digestive system involved in same. That is to the advantage of the body.
6. We find that these applied will make for improved conditions and gradually we may eliminate the disturbances to such an extent that there may be near to normalcy, but the attending weakness will be a result in the respiratory system and through the circulation in the soft tissue. And it will be necessary to keep these activities over a long period, periodically; not necessarily being kept the whole time but periodically. But be consistent and be persistent - we will bring help, if these are followed consistently.
7. There must be the attending to the diet, not pretending to follow a particular diet and then disregarding it at times, but being consistent all the way through.
8. First we would give that there be an inhalant prepared. Don't attempt to use this in the beginning in a spray, but have prepared in a large-mouth bottle with two vents that may be kept corked, leading into the vacuum above the solution put in the container. These should be preferably glass tubes, but not extending deep enough to touch the solution, for only the fumes are to be inhaled into the nasal passages, and into the throat; not into the esophagus

but into the trachea and bronchi - for these are showing the effect of these irritations. This will remove these disorders. Into the container, which would be about an eight ounce bottle, put these ingredients in the order named: Pure Grain Alcohol..............4 ounces, Oil of Eucalyptus..............20 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp...........5 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin....20 minims, Oil of Pine Needles............10 minims, Tolu in Solution...............30 minims.
9. Use a medicine dropper for this, not just pouring or guessing at it.
10. When this is to be used, shake the solution well, remove the corks from the little vents, and through one of these vents inhale deep into each side of the nostrils, then inhale deep into the lungs. Do this two to three times each day.
11. Over the area where there is the tendency for the curvature, in the dorsals of the spine, where the activities of the body-structural forces are weakened, massage an equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor. Massage this in twice each day; and once each day - when ready to retire of evening - apply a flannel across the area. Remove this when arising and when the bath is taken.
12. When the bath is taken, let it be real warm, shower off and then massage the area with an equal combination of Olive Oil (heated) and Tincture of Myrrh.
13. After this has been done about two weeks, then let a good neuropath - not an osteopath, but a neuropath - follow the nerve forces along the whole length of the spine, gently, once each day, until about 15 or 18 such treatments are taken.
14. Then leave these off and take the packs and rubs again for at least 10 days.
15. Then we would have once a week the neuropathic massages; keeping up the inhalations throughout the period.
16. These as we find will rid the body of these disorders and bring better conditions for the body.
17. Do add a great deal of sea foods to the diet; not fresh water fish, but sea foods and fish from the sea, and other activities that carry iodine to the body; silicon and such properties that may be had from turnips, carrots, red cabbage - these should be a part of the diet. Have a great deal of raw vegetables prepared with gelatin. Gelatin foods are well also to include.

18. Not too much of white bread or of white potatoes; go rather light on these, and not too much of any kind of meat except fish, fowl or lamb - these in moderation, but the greater part of the foods should be those indicated for the body.
19. If there is not the ability to obtain sea foods readily, do daily add to the body's diet one little one-grain pellet of Calcidin. This is a combination of iodine and calcium that will aid in alleviating the lack of elements in the system.
20. Ready for questions.
21. (Q) Any mental and spiritual advice? (A) The body has very good ideas, if they are made to conform with ideals. Study to show thyself approved unto thy ideal. Not only in what you believe, but know who is the author of thy faith, and that He is able to keep whatever may be committed unto that body, that entity, that ideal, against any experience. For who healeth all thy diseases? Who supplyeth thy desires? It is He in whom ye live and move and have your being.
22. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Self (one for the neuropath; when it is time for these treatments - Please let us have name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass'n file " for indexing
