3. (Q) What is best to lubricate his bowels and cause them to move? Should he take Squibb's Liquid Petrolatum? What can be added to his diet to make his bowels less firm? (A) The Squibb's may be taken. The better would be to use Usoline in small quantities in conjunction with olive oil - pure olive oil, just what the system will assimilate. Beginning with a few drops once to twice each day. Every second to third day give half teaspoonful of the Usoline. These will be better than with any of the agar preparations, for with a developing body, those that are nearer in conformity to a developing system are better than that which will add to the system those properties that cause the necessity of a continued use of same, see? With the diet, also, this may be altered or changed considerable, as will be seen from the other questions you have here.
4. (Q) What causes him to cry whenever his kidneys want to act, and what will relieve this pain? (A) The proper manipulation of those centers and ganglia as control same will be the best stimuli for this condition, rather than that of drug or even of any OTHER; for this needs the proper stimuli, which will be found from the 9th, 10th and 12th dorsal, and the 3rd and 4th lumbar ganglia.
5. (Q) Is that what makes him cry out in his sleep? (A) This rather from the former experiences.
