TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before, [271].
2. Now, as we find, conditions are not so well in the general distribution of the energies of the body as related to coordinating of the nerve forces of the body, and especially as to the activities - that have been indicated - of the gray matter in brain and nerve tissue with the white matter in brain centers themselves.
3. If there would be applied those treatments that have been outlined, these would be effective to the system.
4. For the immediate condition, as we find, THESE would be beneficial to the body at this time:
5. To 4 ounces of Essence of Lactated Pepsin, add:

   10% solution Bromide of Potassium........1 ounce,
10% solution Iodide of Potassium........20 minims.

6. We would give a teaspoonful of this each morning before arising, and a teaspoonful in the evening when ready for retiring.
7. But, we would insist that there be applied those vibrations for the correction of the activities in that assimilated by the system for the replenishing of nerve energy cooperation between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic and brain centers themselves.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) How long should the Pepsin with the Bromides be given?
   (A) At least for five to six days. But we would begin at once with those other treatments that have been outlined.
10. (Q) Can any further advice be given to persuade the body to take the battery?
    (A) The BODY is willing!
11. (Q) Why did he refuse to take it, then?
    (A) He will take it, if there is the proper suggestion used in applying it.
12. That is all the questions.
13. We are through for the present.
