TEXT

1. EC: Yes. As we find, conditions are rather serious for this body, yet the resistances and the conditions - if they are carried properly, as we find - would be responding to applications.
2. As we find, the greater trouble or the cause is from very inadequate attention at the birth of a child. Hence we find tendencies for the accumulation of tumors, but these are rather of the lymphoid nature than fibroid or sarcoma, and should respond - provided the drainages are set up and there can be the correct establishment of a coordinated elimination with the drainages of the body released.
3. These conditions, as we find, affect most of the pelvic organs, and make for pressures on the kidneys, making for the tendency for the accumulation in the bladder, irritation to the mouth of the bladder, and for the pressures on the colon area; thus cutting off the breath even at times, or producing in the heart area a shortness of breath, the fullness in the superficial circulation, the flushed effect over the body, the swelling even of the extremities at times. Pains and accumulations, the tendencies for fluids in portions of the body are the effects of results of these conditions.
4. As we would find, these would require changes as the applications are made, and as conditions change or alter. FIRST we would begin, not with operative forces but rather as this - that we would do at home; not leaving off the sedatives when necessary, but do not take internally medicines or medicants until there are changes in the system - other than may be given here:
5. To 2 ounces of Simple Syrup, add:

   Essence of Wild Ginseng............1/4 ounce,
Extract from Indian Turnip..........20 minims,
Tincture of Stillingia..............24 minims,
Elixir of Calisaya.................1/4 ounce.

   Shake solution together before the dose would be taken, which would be half a teaspoonful three times each day; in the morning, the afternoon, and at time for retiring. This is a stimulation to the varied activities throughout the system.
6. We would begin with the use of the violet ray, using the vaginal applicator, ten minutes AFTER a quarter grain of Animated Ash is taken each evening. This we would give for not more than five minutes in the beginning, but take this every day. Then in the mornings we would take an eighth grain of the Ash; but use the violet ray following the quarter grain in the evening - as indicated. Empty the Ash OUT of capsule on tongue and wash down with water. Do not take IN the capsule.
7. Also we would begin massaging the lower portion of the cerebrospinal system, from the 9th dorsal downward, each morning - just what the body will absorb, you see, and even over the hips and abdomen, GENTLY, with equal portions of mutton tallow (melted), turpentine and spirits of camphor.
8. Of course, if there are pains across the lower portion of the stomach, apply on there cerebrospinal system a saturated solution of Epsom Salts in heavy packs; using heavy crash towels wrung out of the saturated solution and applied hot. This will relieve, and aid for making the better elimination.
9. Occasionally we would use a douche - about every other day; to a quart of tepid water adding twenty minims of Atomidine.
10. Do this.
11. Then, in twenty-two days we would give further instructions.
12. As to the matter of diet, keep those things according to THIS as an outline:
13. Mornings - citrus fruit juices; not necessarily fresh fruit but more preferable when possible; coddled egg, a little bacon and brown toast. No white bread at any time.
14. Noons - a vegetable soup or a meat broth with not too much of the meats in same; as chicken broth, clam broth, mutton broth - any of these, or a vegetable broth.
15. Evenings - a whole vegetable diet well cooked. These will be the better for the system. Not too much solid foods until we have changed, at least, in the twenty-two days.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) Are operative measures required, or would they aid this body?
    (A) As we have given, we would not begin with these. These may be necessary. But if the drainages are set up by the massages and the applications that we have outlined, the condition should be eliminated from the system.
18. (Q) What suggestions are there for the ease of mind, the better mental peace and attitude for this body?
    (A) Of course, the mental attitude contributes a great deal to the distresses of the body. Let the body KNOW that there is being applied that from the universal forces which will bring the better conditions in the experience of this body, thus fitting the body - mentally and physically - for a life of real service to the fellow man.
    That which the body is passing through in the present is as the trials and the tests. Be faithful.
19. We are through.

    (GD note: A booklet regarding Atomidine was enclosed. Also a letter was enclosed to Druggist, and letter explaining the Ash. If anything is not understood, get in touch with us. Let us hear in twenty-two days after the treatment has been begun, so we may make the appointment for a check reading.)
