1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Dr. [5618]. This we have had this before. Now, there are bettered conditions in some directions, and others STILL cause and give distress to the body. The vitality is on the wane, for there is little assimilation taking place. The liver, as yet, is not functioning in a manner as will give the proper assimilations. Hence, with the disturbances as have and do exist with the gastric juices of the system, little of the assimilation is taking place.
2. The diet, then, will be that as is the most to be considered. Little of whole wheat toast, or stale bread, or stale whole wheat; that is, not so stale as to be unusable, but the dryer the better. This may be taken. A very little of barley water, or barley that is prepared properly. Also arrowroot - this may be altered for the system occasionally. The properties, as has been given, in the dried milk. This may also be altered or changed, for - as will be seen - at some times they will agree and at others they will disagree, but they are to be taken in small quantities. Also well were the yolk of eggs cooked with spirits frumenti be taken - very little of this sipped, or kept cool and a little sipped as a stimuli. Quantities of this would be bad, but SMALL quantities will be beneficial for the system. Or, this may be prepared also with a little olive oil with same, which will aid in assimilation for the system.
3. These, as we find, would be the better things, or the better conditions for the body at the present time. Alternating these. Also there may be occasionally those of the juice of fresh oysters, or the stew made with the oyster juice - from fresh oysters, not from cove oysters, nor from these that are old or stale, but fresh. These will be assimilated by the system. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) Should any of the oyster itself be eaten, or just the juice?

(A) The JUICE - not the oyster, no sir! Those properties in the system as have been taken with the adjustments, now, of the quinine and iron, may be discontinued for the time being - but necessary that these be resumed again when there is better assimilation in the system. The heart's action is somewhat improved. The kidneys are more active, or nearer in the form of activities - but the liver and the assimilation and the vitality are at low ebb, but the resistance is still present, will assimilation and the proper conditions for RESPIRATION be restored in a manner as to aid the body to GAIN strength.
5. (Q) Should the oil packs over the liver be continued? (A) Until we can get some REACTION we MUST have SOMETHING, or else we may look for congestion there to such a state as to cause disturbing conditions.
6. (Q) How long at a time should the packs be given? (A) Until - this is! - until the HEAT is out of it! We are through for the present.
