TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Some improvement. Yet still very weak, and still a good deal of fluid in the lung and lung cavity. And this works for a hardship upon the eliminations.
2. As we find, we would continue with the use each day of the Ultra-Violet Ray for a minute and a half to three minutes; with a gentle massage over the spine following same.
3. We would continue with the use of those properties in boiling water, or in the croup cup is better, that we have indicated to be kept in the room. These will not only clarify the air and purify same but breathed in will aid in acting as a purifier and as a healing influence - especially from the combination of the Benzoin and Turp. Not too close, that it dries the throat.
4. Also, about twice each day give a teaspoonful of the juice from onions. Prepare the onions, preferably, in Patapar Paper; or boil them in Patapar Paper, so that the juice from same is preserved in its NATURAL state. To each TWO teaspoonsful of the onion juice add one minim of Glycerine. Stir this well together. Let it be sipped when given. This will not only act upon the mucous membranes of the throat, but act with the circulatory forces through the respiratory system and be easy upon those activities of the gastric juices through the DIGESTIVE forces. Also it will make for a settling of disturbances that have occurred there at times, making for a better reaction through the system. Prepare this fresh each day.
5. Do this.
6. Keep the body quiet.
7. Well that the feet be massaged, and lower limbs, for those wearinesses brought by a disturbed circulation; and this will tend to make for a better activity of both the superficial and the deeper circulation. Massage even from the lumbar area on the spine to the lower limbs and over the feet; gentle massage, not only when there is the bath but at other times, will be found to be very RESTING to the body; relieving those tendencies for the filling of the cavities of the lungs.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Has the body passed the crisis?
   (A) As we find, it has passed same; about two o'clock this morning.
10. (Q) Any suggestions regarding the weakness, or nourishment?
    (A) These have been indicated. The weakness will be materially aided by this general massage, and this especially from the LOWER portion - as given.
    Do these.
11. We are through for the present.
