TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [143] - this we have had before. The conditions - as outlined - show an accentuation and localization of the inflammation which has been created in system, and affecting the soft tissue and that portion of same especially as seen in throat, head and ear.
2. The necessity of the puncturing of the ear drum need not necessarily injure permanently the hearing in any manner, provided the inflammation and the drainage from same are eliminated from system in such a manner as not to cause hindrances in any form in or about the soft tissue, or the organs of the auditory system.
3. There should have been more thoroughly carried out those suggestions as were made for the reduction of temperature [143-8], and of the massage especially along the spine, with the reduction of the temperature, and eliminations set up properly through the liver and through the excretory system. Thus these accentuations might have been prevented.
4. To meet the conditions, though, at present - that necessary for the local cleansing of conditions should be performed.
5. THEN that as has been OUTLINED [in 143-8] be more thoroughly carried out, in setting up eliminations; in the system, in the massaging at least once each day the spine, especially in the upper dorsal, lower cervical and the lumbar regions - with the oil, as outlined.
6. And the application also of the ultra-violet ray will assist in so establishing equilibrium in the blood supply as to hinder the reoccurrence of the improper coagulations of conditions produced in tissue from congestion, or assist eliminations through the proper channel - other than coagulating in, or surrogating in such a manner as to cause specific conditions in centralized places.
7. DO as has been outlined and we will bring the more normal and the corrected conditions for this body, [143]. DO that.
8. (Q) Is it necessary to have the ear drum punctured?
   (A) This has just been given! We are through with this reading.
