1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find the body very good in most respects. There are, however, conditions existent, physical, that bring distresses to the system at times - and, as we find, these may be corrected, that these reactions may be eliminated from the system. While, if allowed to continue, must overtax the nerve system as to eventually produce an incoordination to the extent as to hinder even the full activities OF the physical body, which it does not at the present time.
2. In the beginning of this distress, we find there were pressures produced in the lumbar and sacral, that disturb the equilibrium to the sympathetic system, as related to the gland that acts through the whole of the cerebrospinal system, affecting the body in its nerve reaction from the base of the brain through the medulla oblongata, and into the coordination that throws the system out of balance.
3. In meeting the needs, then, for the body, there must be taken into consideration the nerve systems and their relation one to another. When there is the perfect coordination in nerve reaction, whether from the sympathetic or cerebrospinal, we will find the correspondent reaction in the voluntary and involuntary nerve reflexes. Here, where pressure is produced in this body, we find in the branch end of the cerebrospinal, and an engorgement of the pineal reflex, and THIS produces that taxation to the system regarding the sympathetic and cerebrospinal reaction.
4. Then, we would correct by those of proper manipulations and adjustments, those conditions existent in the whole of the lower end of the spine, applying those of a vibration that will COORDINATE with the nerve reflexes of the body. Just as a battery may be charged or discharged, so may the human body be recharged by the production of coordination in a low form of battery reaction, or that as may be given through that of the Radio-Active Appliance given at least

once each day, as the body rests. This will assist in aiding the system to coordinate throughout the nerve forces, giving as medicinal properties that will vibrate with same those of the Mayblossom Bitters - given two drops with the food or in water once each day to begin with - giving this for five days, then increase to three drops five days - then increase to five drops given for five days - and then RELIEVE the system of same for five days - then beginning with two drops and repeating same.
5. Keeping up the manipulations and adjustments throughout the period. In sixty to ninety days we should find a more nearer NORMAL, or the changes as will be necessary.
6. Keep the body in the open as much as possible. Do not give food values that upset the system. Those should be preferably of the citrous fruits and of whole cereal grain and of the vegetables that carry the near balance of food values for the system. Remembering, there must be kept the proper alkalin reaction in the body. Do that. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) Should the manipulations be given osteopathically? (A) Manipulations and corrections should be given osteopathically. These, preferably, should be given each day, and ADJUSTMENTS made ONLY as the body is able to respond - or beginning first ONCE each week, gradually, until there is at least twice or three times each week, until perfect alignment is made through the cerebrospinal system. RELAXING the body in the cervical and in the lumbar and sacral and coccyx - THESE we would re-adjust to their normalcy - gradually, not all at once.
8. (Q) How long at a time should the battery be used each day? (A) For about sixty minutes. Applying same to the wrist and to the umbilicus, then to ankle and umbilicus, alternating on sides - or to the sides - see? Well that the Gold be given at the third week of battery appliance, see?
9. (Q) What originally produced this pressure in the lumbar and sacral region? (A) At or just after birth.
10. (Q) Could that have been caused by a rupture? (A) By the pressure as was produced after - this has existed in the body, you see.
11. (Q) What is the condition of the tonsils? (A) With the corrections and with the proper care these are better left as they are, than of destroying tissue that is needed in system. Should these become so sympathetic in the conditions as arise, THEN they may be alleviated or taken out, but these have their purpose in the system - for the tonsil aids in the inner functioning of the thyroids.

12. (Q) Are the tonsils diseased now? (A) Only sympathetically.
13. (Q) Should the body have any meat at all? (A) The juices of meat may be given - not the flesh itself.
14. (Q) Should he be allowed to run and take plenty exercise, or would it be better to keep him quiet? (A) As much outside exercise as the body may have! The more the better! provided the body is kept, of course - no WET feet, nor COLD feet - see?
15. (Q) How about hot baths? (A) Good!
16. (Q) Is twice a day too much, fifteen minutes at a time? (A) No. Well, when such are given, that the body be rubbed down well with rather coarse cloths, especially along the spine - see? Do as we have given and we will find we will bring the results as desired for this body, [5428].
17. (Q) Should he play with other children or be kept by himself? (A) Play with other children occasionally, at least. We are through for the present. Copy to Mother " " Ass'n office " " Cayce Hospital
