TEXT

1. GC: You will give a physical, mental, and spiritual reading for this body, with suggestions for the improvement of any or all of these, and you will answer the questions regarding same that I will ask you.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had before, you see.
3. Now, we find in the physical there are some conditions that have become exaggerated or severe since last we had the body here, and the change in the effect as is produced in the body is more from indiscretions on the part of the body (physical) than from any other source, unless that as has been given had been followed out more closely when these conditions began to show or exert themselves in the physical forces of the body.
4. We would, to meet the physical conditions in the body at the present time, take these properties as the medicinal properties for the correction of conditions that are troublesome at the present time.
5. To one (1) gallon of rain water, we would add:

   Sarsaparilla Root..........4 ounces,
Wild Cherry Bark...........2 ounces,
Calisaya Bark..............1 ounce,
Peruvian Bark............1/2 ounce,
Prickly Ash Bark.........1/2 ounce,
Yellow Dock Root.........1/2 ounce,
Burdock Root.............1/2 ounce, and
Elder Flower...............2 ounces.

   Reduce this by gentle boiling - not too heavy, and keep top on same while this is being reduced, and reduce to one (1) quart. Strain while warm and add four (4) ounces pure grain alcohol, with two (2) drams Balsam of Tolu cut in it. Then to the whole solution add five (5) minims Oil of Peppermint.
6. Shake solution together before the dose is taken, which would be teaspoonful four (4) times each day.
7. Let the diet be rather those of soups and of strengthening vegetables that are well seasoned. Drink plenty of water, and we will find that by the time the whole properties are taken the body will be rid of these conditions.
8. In the mental attitude of the body we find as these:
9. The body, losing control of self through those conditions that arise at times, find that the mental forces become worried and unstable, as it were, in the desires or intent.
10. Stick closer to those tenets as are found in Him, as may be attained through the close study of 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th, chapters or divisions of that as recorded by John. This will also bring the spiritual mindedness to the body, and let EVERYTHING - physically, mentally, and spiritually - be done in decency and in order, and consistent to the very core.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What causes the burning back of nose and dull pain in top of head?
    (A) Improper eliminations, and the improper circulation, produced by that condition as exists in the intestinal system that needs to be eliminated, and the various vibrations set aright. An overtaxation of hypogastric nerve centers produces this.
13. (Q) What will relieve same?
    (A) Correction of the conditions in the body, as given.
14. (Q) What is the condition of the lungs?
    (A) These are very good, save as improper circulation and the lack of deep breathing and sufficient water in the body. Build up the general system, and we will find these conditions will improve.
15. We are through.
