TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the body of [136], also her baby, [142], and you will give the physical condition of each of these bodies at the present time, with suggestions for the relief and improvement of same, and you will answer any questions regarding same that I will ask you.
2. EC: We have the bodies here. This we have had before, both, or each of these.
3. Now, with the body of [136] we find there are changes in the physical conditions of the body, that have come near to the normal correction in many ways, and we find that the physical forces in the mesenteric system still show the signs or the effects of conditions produced there by those conditions, or things, or elements, applied in the body, and that the effect of properties taken internally has effect upon the nursing baby, and its mesenteric system becomes involved in the condition, and this, as seen, that as given, that the applications for this body, [136], should be rather from the external than from the internal, where these would affect the nursing child, for under the present existent condition of both, this would be best that each be separated, as it were, in the applications for each, for this only produces those conditions in the child that will bring inflammation and not satisfying the appetite, and at the same time giving the incentive for functioning in the mesenteric system; for it is as simple functioning, rather than the action in the whole, and should be (speaking of the baby at present) given that which becomes wholesome to the well-being of the child in its present condition. Separating, then, its food from that as taken from mother, that both may receive those conditions necessary for the full correction of those things that are as disturbing elements, and then these may be renewed or kept in that manner, see? Ready for questions.
4. (Q) What food will be best for the baby?
   (A) That that will be found to agree with same. It will be found necessary to change these until that as does agree with same. It will be found necessary to change these until that as does agree is found, see? for with a change of this nature, the digestive system, or the mesenteric system, in its assimilation is of such a delicate nature that these must be felt out, see? WE would give such as that found in Nestle's or in Eagle's, or in any of those properties that are prepared for infants.
5. (Q) What treatment should the body [136] have?
   (A) This then, without consideration, is only to cleanse the mesenteric system and set the adjustments through the manipulations as will start the functioning of the body, see? for it's necessary to produce eliminations, for poisons arising from the overtaxation of the body physically and mentally, and of those conditions as have been left in system through the drosses of the body, it's necessary to produce high eliminations, see? These may be given through any form that (without considering that it's to be nursed to the baby) will be eliminated properly, see?
6. (Q) Should any treatment be given the baby other than changing the food?
   (A) Only those as necessary to set the digestive system properly, and with these those as have been outlined in the limewater and in those things that produce sweetening to the stomach, see? So FOOD is that necessary for the body, that agrees with it - with the baby, see?
   In the body of [136] it's necessary that eliminations be set up, that all poisons be eliminated, that we may relieve these headaches, these bearing down pains, this heaviness across the abdomen, and aching across the small of the back, see? because these are reflexes.
7. (Q) Should medicinal properties be given for this, to-gether with the manipulation?
   (A) Medicinal properties - when the baby not nursing - certainly! That's why the change is made, so that these may be given! But these given as has been with it brought about the condition with the baby, see? and did not correct conditions with the physical body of [136] for these have been given or presented to the bodies through that vision as is seen as given by the mother to them, see? All these have been presented. Well that the bodies follow these, for these are as the truths for each of these.
8. (Q) What was the mother of [136] trying to explain to [900] regarding -
   (A) (Interrupting) The condition of the baby and the cause of same, which is as has been explained in that as just given, see?
9. That is all the questions.
10. We are through for the present.
