TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the further improvement of same, and you will answer any questions regarding same that I may ask you.
2. EC: We have the body here - we have had this before, you see.
3. Now, we find there is considerable improvement in the physical conditions of the body as respecting the general physical condition, and that the more normal equilibrium throughout the body has been established - especially in the digestion, assimilating and eliminating system; yet we find there are those irritating conditions kept up in the body by the continual clearing, or by the continual exertion to clear the throat, and causes irritation in and about the thorax and that portion of the nasal cavity, above the palate, where that as is called or IS the adenoid region. This shows irritation by this overtaxing of this portion of the body.
4. To meet the needs of this would be to apply that which will clarify the conditions. This SHOULD do same, and will, were the irritation kept down by effort on part of the body, and by use of these conditions for the body.
5. Keep the eliminations stimulated occasionally, that there may be no drosses from these eliminations that must be set up through the application of these conditions as may be given for this body, in ANY portion of the system.
6. Use that inhalant as has been oft prescribed [through these sources] for the cold, congestion, or for the cleansing of the nasal cavities. Inhale same through nostrils, see?
7. Then, after the manipulation STRONGLY for the neck, throat and facial muscles, apply the Violet Ray to the whole of the neck and cervical regions. Keep this up for at least ten to fifteen days.
8. If the condition does not respond, through the continual strain brought on, it would be the better plan to remove same, see?
9. (Q) How many minutes at a time should the Violet Ray be given?
   (A) From five to fifteen minutes.
10. (Q) Just what ingredients should be used in this inhalant for this body?
    (A) That as has been prescribed for these conditions.
11. (Q) Should the body have just the Castoria to assist in the eliminations, or should it have the Alophen occasionally?
    (A) These should be alternated, as given - for one is an active principle to the stomach and the intestinal system the other is a stimulant to the whole nerve system and to the blood supply.
12. (Q) How often should the inhalant be used each day?
    (A) At least three to four times each day, more particularly when the body is at rest or ease, see? Inhale deep, for it acts as the cleanser and the counter-irritant. Inhale through nostrils, and just occasionally through the mouth.
13. (Q) Is the inhalant that we have already fixed, in the house, the inhalant as has been [See 487-10, Par. 7-A spray solution; 538-18 inhalant] -
    (A) The inhalant as has been given for such conditions. Use that! Grain alcohol four (4) ounces -

    Eucalyptol............................20 minims,
Benzosol..............................20 minims,
Benzoin...............................10 minims,
