To 4 ounces of Water add 2 ounces of Strained Pure Honey
(not synthetic honey). Let come to a boil. Skim off the
refuse. Then when it is near cool, add 4 ounces of Pure
Apple Brandy; NOT Apple Jack. Then, in the ORDER NAMED,
add these ingredients:
Syrup of Rhubarb.................1 ounce,
Syrup of Horehound...............1 ounce,
Tincture of Stillingia.........1/2 ounce,
Syrup of Wild Cherry.........1 1/2 ounces,
Chloroform......................10 minims.
Shake the solution well before the dose is taken. Take not
by guess but by measurement; a teaspoonful every three hours
when necessary.
In the diet beware of too much starches. No white potatoes.
No white bread.
Do not take cereals AND citrus fruits at the same meal.
Alternate these, but never take them together.
Take plenty of beef juice; NOT broth but pure beef juice.
The meats should be preferably fish, fowl and lamb.
Plenty of green vegetables but not cooked in fat; rather in
their OWN juices.
Doing all of these, we will find the body gaining in weight,
in strength and in resistance and vitality.
We are through with this Reading.
