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, [5169].

3. As we find, there has been for some time back a glandular disturbance between the liver and the kidneys. Thus we have had an altering, as it were, of the eliminations; which is the function of each of these organs in their activity in the central nerve and blood supply, as through or from cerebrospinal reflexes and activities.

4. Thus, we have, as a result of these, an accumulation through the eliminating systems, causing an inflammatory rheumatic-arthritic tendency which becomes at times very painful; at others not so much the pain but the inability of the locomotion without pain.

5. As we would find, first: We would begin with Epsom Salts Baths. Have this about once each week. At the beginning there should be used about ten pounds of Epsom Salts in about forty gallons of water, and this pretty warm. We would have these baths for three weeks, and then leave off, maybe for six weeks; another, then, would be taken but increase the amount of Epsom Salts, dissolved in the water, five pounds each week that it is changed, see?

6. Then give the body each time a thorough massage over limbs and the cerebrospinal system, or the spine, during the period the body is in the bath, see? Follow same with a massage using Peanut Oil, when the body is dried off.

7. Then apply the low Wet Cell Appliance, which would carry Chloride of Gold Sodium and solutions charged with Iodine, so we will have the radial activity of Iodine with gold-salts in same, see? This should be given at least three times each week. The solutions should be made with two pounds of Copper Sulphate, with no Charcoal, and the

other solutions charged in proportion; in a gallon and a half of distilled water. This is to be charged on the low electrical charge, with three ounces of Tincture of Iodine suspended in same. The Gold Solution should be prepared one grain to one ounce of distilled water, using three ounces of the solution. The small copper plate would be attached at the 9th dorsal. Yes, we will have the effect of Iodine in the body vibratorially with this charge. Charge or recharge the Appliance every thirty days. We would use the Appliance for thirty minutes every other day, see?

8. Follow this treatment also with a thorough massage, from the toes upward to the 9th dorsal, from the finger tips to the body, up to head and down to 9th dorsal. The Epsom Salts Baths and Wet Cell Appliance treatment do not necessarily have to follow each other. Should the days come when these are together, it is all right.

9. Then mind the diet, no heavy meats, very little salt, save kelp or health salt. A great deal of raw vegetables; cabbage, lettuce, celery, carrots, all forms of watercress. Leafy vegetables are preferable to the pod or tuberous variety. Lamb and chicken would be well, but never fried.

10. Ready for questions.

11. (Q) Should I alter any of my lines of activity? (A) These, as we find, have not been very vocational. They have little or nothing to do with the condition. Be so that you can have these treatments regularly. Have a regular period for these and take them; the massage should follow the use of the Appliance, as well as the massage that should follow the Epsom Salts Bath.

12. We are through. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " for indexing (See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] to be sent to Mr. A. M. Godfrey, 2709 Lafayette Blvd., Norfolk, Va., for preparing the Wet Cell Appliance to be used in this individual case. Also article explaining theory of this Appliance.)
