TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the improvement of same, and will answer any questions I will ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now we find, even with the development in the physical forces of the body, there are many changes in the physical forces since last we had the body here. Some conditions are more of the acute nature at the present - this principally cold and congestion.
4. Well, for this, that there be applied those of camphorated oils for the chest and throat, and that cocoa butter be massaged thoroughly in and along the whole of the cerebro-spinal system, from the base of brain to the end of the spine. This will be found also to assist in the correction of those congestions as are seen along the spine, in a greater or less degree, from those conditions as have existed in the body through the interim as has been seen here. The general physical health of the body shows very good.
5. The diet as has been given should be kept well along with the change as is necessary with the development of the physical forces of the body. The teeth are coming along well. These will be satisfactory in every way. Do not worry about these conditions, for in their own proper time these will come through, see? The food values as are given for the body only need the change as the developments come for the body. When the body requires food it takes same - do not FORCE same when the body does not require food. See? Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Has this body received injuries from the two falls it has had since the last reading?
   (A) That's why these conditions are given here, for those congestions - that is, the massage along the spine of the cocoa butter. These will only add for the tissue as is necessary for replenishing throughout these portions of the body. These have injured - but not injured in the nature that there are subluxations, or that are even those of congestions in places that cause disturbance to functioning of the system - but to prevent congestion, or to PREVENT those forming of lesions in any form along the spine, we would - with the congestion as existent in the form of cold in the body - massage with the cocoa butter, at least three times each week for this condition - each day until this cold and this congestion in the lung and portions of the body is thrown off from the intestines and bowels. The light cathartic should be given - Castoria, or those of Phenolax may be given. Castoria the preferable here. Phenol - Phenolax - is very well with the congestion.
7. (Q) What foods should be added for the diet now?
   (A) NOW we would not add foods for the body, with the congestion. As the body develops add more of those that carry the more proteins - those that add more flesh may be given, would the body develop stronger - fish and fowl, but not meats - no strong meats for children.
8. We are through for the present.
