1. GC: You will give a physical, mental and financial reading for this body, with suggestions for the improvement of any or all of these. You will answer questions.
2. EC: Yes. Now, we find there may be improvements made in the physical and mental conditions of the body, and these should be considered first; for without these being in the proper condition there could not be much obtained in the financial way that would even prove beneficial to the body in material way.
3. The physical conditions need attention rather as precautionary, though there are those subtle conditions that are in the way of undermining the physical well-being of the body. These conditions we find are of that nature as may be called catarrhal in their form and manner, but catarrhal conditions rather of the intestinal or of digestive system, though often affecting the body through other sources, or through the UNDERMINING of the replenishing system other portions and functioning organs suffer - as is seen in tendency toward anemia in blood, in liver, in the functioning of the spleen. Hence rebuilding supplies of the system are low, and little resistance has been builded in the system for some time.
4. These conditions are of the nature wherein that little of medicinal properties will be effective, for those elements and things that have been taken as precautions and as stimulants, and as sedatives, as digestive elements to stimulate secretions, have brought about such conditions that the taxation through that subtle action of catarrh (which is congestion in mucus tissue), that medicine would of necessity be so strong to meet the needs as to be very detrimental to the body.
5. Then, to build back to the normal is to regard the digestive system, through the diet and through specific exercises, and through the adding of vibration to the system that will replenish - by creating such vibration in the body as to bring about a healthy reaction from blood and nerve
5648-1 Page 2
supply, thus gradually overcoming this tendency; for the tissue of the body, especially mucus producing tissue, is becoming affected through the effects of this subtle force as is seen in the system.
6. Worry - as has been brought on at times - has been very detrimental.
7. Then the diet, as is seen, should be looked after very carefully.
8. The diet of mornings should consist principally of cereals and cream and milk, with fruit occasionally instead of the cereal, see? but never any apples or bananas for THIS body, unless apples are cooked. Grapefruit, oranges, may be taken, or pineapple may be taken, but not apples or bananas. Cereals - well that these be alternated, as the Puffed Wheat, Puffed Corn, Grapenuts, Corn Flakes, Shredded Wheat - that these be variated, and at times fruit may be taken WITH cereal, but plenty of cream, and RAW - not cooked - eggs.
9. We would also add that of Scott's Emulsion of Codliver Oil. This is not a medicine, but as that necessary to rebuild the tissue of the digestive and of the blood supplying system, especially through those portions where blood is turned into chyle for the replenishing of new blood in the body.
10. In the noon meals - these should be light, and consist principally of milk, or malted milk, and of whole wheat or brown bread.
11. In the evenings, the diet should be RAW vegetables - those of carrots, celery, cabbage, lettuce, and such elements, grated or chopped fine, together with dressing that is of the plant oil, see?
12. In these diets add little of coffee or tea, though stimulants of coca cola may be taken IN moderation, but not tea or coffee. MILK should be taken by the body.
13. Add the vibrations of that found in the Radio-Active Appliance. This should be worn each evening at least two (2) hours, attaching the negative alternately to wrist and ankle - keeping plenty of ice in the crock container, that the vibration may be high.
14. The exercise would be at least ten minutes each evening and morning. The body should take the regular setting - up exercise as is prescribed for those that need and EQUALIZED circulation - bending of the arms and of the body above the waist, and stooping of the body below the waist. Every second or third day, in evening, the body should take the circular motion for the hips and abdomen. This is done by placing hands on floor and feet braced against wall, and the
5648-1 Page 3
body moved in circular motion, or swinging motion, first one way then another, that the liver may overcome this tendency of hardness, that the kidneys may function the more perfectly normal, and that the diet as has been taken may be assimilated properly by the body.
15. Do that, [5648], for the physical forces of the body.
16. In the mental body, those worries as have come - and as do come to the body regarding employment by the body and for the body - this will be found to be set aright when the body is more physically fit, which should be in at least thirty (30) days, would the body follow those suggestions as have been given here.
17. Connections may be made by the body in many VARIOUS channels. As WE find, the body - mentally - is well fitted and prepared to meet the requirements of those as will need such - as the Atlantic Gulf & West Indies Shipping Company, Havana, Cuba, or Savannah, Georgia, or Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Or those as required by the Gulfport Shipping Company, Gulfport, Mississippi - or as is seen by the refining company, that as is known as the Southern Refining Company, Shreveport, Louisiana - or that as is seen by the finance company - National Finance Company, Baltimore, Maryland.
18. We are through for the present.
