TEXT

1. EC: We have the body here - this we have had before. Not so good are the physical conditions of the body in the present, as the congestions indicate in the digestive and the assimilating system.
2. Too much of a sedentary physical activity; not sufficient of the physical activities to balance with the mental forces or activities of the body.
3. The vibrations, or indications as have been used recently in the body, are well. These we would keep up.
4. We would be mindful of the diet, that there is that which builds for the sufficient nerve ENERGIES of the body; for the nerve energies are naturally used up, with so much activities in that direction without the equal balance or resistance in the physical.
5. Keep the whole body from the WORRYING; and keep the mental forces in accord WITH those of the live, vibrating, active forces in the whole of its well BEING, for the better conditions. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Should the body have any osteopathic treatments?
   (A) As indicated, the vibrations and the massage as has been given is as well, WILL there be sufficient of these given for the activities. Better that there be more PHYSICAL EXERCISE than so much treatments!
7. (Q) Should the vibrator be given once a day?
   (A) Once or twice a day.
8. (Q) Should the oil packs be continued?
   (A) These should be continued for at least the period until there is the full activity of the phrenic nerves in the liver.
9. (Q) Should the Bismuth and Milk of Magnesia, alternated, be continued?
   (A) These would be well, as would be the iodine - or Atomidine - to be taken occasionally also, that there is the proper according of the forces as make for emunctory and of the glands' activity; for most gland secretions we see the necessary functioning of the gland is iodine - or, to put it in common parlance, most glands function as machinery would under oil. The iodine being the oil for the gland - see?
10. (Q) How often should the Atomidine be taken, and how much?
    (A) About every other day - three to five drops.
11. (Q) What diet should the body have at present?
    (A) That that is plenty of blood and nerve building; plenty of gluten, plenty of those that make for a resistance - and don't eat so much like a pig! Don't eat so much!
12. (Q) What about smoking?
    (A) Smoking in moderation is very good, or without any is very good - but those secretions that have been as accumu- lations must be GRADUALLY worked off, else we MUST have that result of the sudden change as cold and hot. Iron white heated, plunged suddenly into cold, leaves scales! So does, as a condition in the system where plunged suddenly from one to the other leaves its after effect, as cinder or ash. Better to be moderate in all things, whether eating or drinking, or smoking, or what! MODERATION is the key to success or longevity!
13. (Q) Is there any suggestion that can be given the body that will assist?
    (A) Be kind and sweet to the body - everybody!
14. We are through.
