TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical and mental reading on this body, giving the conditions at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement of either or all of these, and you will answer the questions regarding these that I will ask you.
2. EC: Now, we find many of those conditions as have been given that should be corrected in the system are in that state of being accentuated in the present conditions. This is especially seen in the nerve system, as affects the ability to sleep, to rest, and that condition in face and ears. This should have that attention as has been given of the osteopathic treatments, to correct those impingements in the various portions of the system, with the addition then of that vibration found in the Radio-Active Appliance, as gives that vibration for the equilibrium of the system, making the attachment to the wrist last, or the negative pole, see?
3. The various conditions as exist have been gone into often. These corrections only in part have been made, and not that of the deep manipulation and the correction of those centers that affect the system direct, as those in the lumbar, in the 7th and 10th dorsal, in the upper dorsal and cervical. With this general treatment with system, this would bring near the normal functioning for the body, see? Then do that.
4. (Q) What causes the bitterness in the mouth?
   (A) From that center in the 10th dorsal, the radiation of the impinged nerve center produces the return to the stomach and to the esophagus those properties that should be eliminated in their regular channels. This, as we see, occurs occasionally and is produced by the reaction of this impingement on the gastric forces of the stomach proper, and is an outcome of this impingement.
5. (Q) What causes pain in the arms?
   (A) That improper elimination as has been given, and the correction of the conditions in the upper dorsal and cervical will allow the eliminations to be more normal and removing the pressure as produced by drosses left in capillary and ligament circulation.
6. (Q) Are there any organic conditions to cause alarm in the system?
   (A) Functional - produced by impingements and by indiscretions in care of system in times back.
7. (Q) Should the body go West at this time, to [..., Okla. to visit daughter [459] and family]?
   (A) Be very good - little later.
8. (Q) What will cure the condition in the ear?
   (A) Removing of the pressure that causes it. Now we are through with this reading.

2. 1/03/26 Son [257] requested Ck. Physical for his mother, saying: "Mother worries me a bit. The noise [Head noises?] [in N.Y.?] worries her and she can not sleep, but I do not notice it. She does not look very well, so I do not know whether she should go West to [459]'s for a while or if she needs doctor's attention here."

REPORTS

Now since the rdg. she will do what is said. So please order at once and tell him to send me the bill."
