Time of Reading 3:45 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5420] - this we have had before. Here we find conditions such, that it might be JUSTLY said, "I told you so," or the attempt to use that which would be MAYBE just as good.
2. In the conditions existent, we find these conditions have arisen: With the character of the manipulation or massage given, with the kind of applications used, conditions have become well disturbed, without an outlet for same through their normal channels. This, again, [is] a very good illustration of the difference between osteopathy and chiropractic, or massage when necessary and the abilities to awaken incentives through osteopathic treatments AND adjustments, which - if properly done - coincide with that NECESSARY MOST within the body-physical to create proper relations in system. Then we find, as is seen existent, that the system - mesenteric system - has become so clogged with poisons, and with that of toxics from the system, as to have pressure, especially along the diaphragm line, where an unequaled circulation is produced by this gradual pressure produced in system. Lower limbs become especially tired, and languidness and distress is the result, with - of mornings - an uneasy headache, yet when activities on feet these at times disappear, at others become more centralized along the base of the brain and through the shoulders. Pains are indicated at times following these along the right side, especially down in the caecum and that portion of the body.
3. Will the body follow out that as has been outlined by those suggestions given, though we would alter somewhat now that as given - for we would begin first with the manipulations, thoroughly given over the system, as to RELAX the body, before any corrections would be made. These, as we find, would require two, three or four deep treatments. Then we would, for at least two or three treatments - every third day - evacuate the system, through

the colonic irrigations. THEN begin with those of the medicinal properties as has been given, to tone up or to clarify the system.
4. We will find, too, that a gentle rub along the spine, especially of morning, if a cold shower will be taken - this of sufficient intensity to create the proper relationships or frictions along the spine - these will aid materially.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Why flushes around face? (A) The circulation, as has been indicated, from pressure that comes from the toxic forces in system, as cause the flushes of blood through improper distribution. Heart's action would be found at such times to be tricky or faulty also; but not any trouble there - don't get that!
7. (Q) Why did body not continue to improve under Reilly's treatment? (A) As has been outlined. Something else won't be JUST as good! If it had been, we would have given it!
8. (Q) What is the matter with body? (A) Hardheadedness, most!
9. (Q) What does the future of the woolen business hold out for body? (A) This, as related to the physical forces, has little to do - but these may be made to be worthwhile, provided in the application of self as respecting business - the self is expended in the same way and manner as it thinks about other businesses that it sees people succeeding in. One may succeed in the woolen business, if the individual be so inclined, as well as in the shoestring or in stock business. These depend upon the application and that expended by the individual. NOTHING may be obtained without effort.
