EC: ("Yes, the same place. [Same place as [
785]] Isn't up
yet!") Yes. As we find with this body, [
786], the
affectations are from the activity of not the stomach but
intestinal infections - from a form of worms, that make for
the irritations, for the lack of appetite and at other times
an over appetite; at times the belching up of foods and the
spitting up, restlessness at night, the inability for the
body to be as active - and tendency for the cold and
congestion through the system. These are the conditions as
we find that affect the body; these make for the quick
pulsations at times, a little rise of temperature that comes
at times, irritation in the throat, the irritation in the
mucous membranes of the nostrils and face, the overactivity
at times of the kidneys, the effect produced upon the
eliminations, and especially a peculiar color and odor that
is indicated from the stool.
In meeting these conditions for this body, as we find, we
would first give that for a whole day the body should be fed
only - with some malted milk, or the like - green lettuce and
green cabbage. Then in the evening of that same day we would
give, under the direction of a physician only, a small dose
of calomel and santonin; about four grains of the calomel
with about one and one-half grains of the santonin.
These we would follow in the next day with very small broken
doses of Fletcher's Castoria, to make for the settling of the
stomach and for the toning of the digestive system. Give
about a quarter to half a teaspoonful every half hour until
there has been indicated the activity from the system of the
Castoria - by the change in the color of the stool, and the
change in the temperature and the quietness to the body, see?
Then we would begin with a body-BUILDING diet for the body.
We would give every day (this is outside of the other meals,
you see) at least two tablespoonsful of beef juice and liver
juice; these NOT mixed, but given at different times. Give
the juice WARM, of course, but not a large quantity at a
time; half to a teaspoonful, or half a teaspoonful given at a
dose - first one and then the other, you see - and this may
be done two, three or four times in the morning and in the
afternoon. Graham or whole wheat crackers may be eaten with
same.
As to the regular meals:
Mornings - a cooked cereal that is rich with vitamins A, B
and D, which is preferably found in the Maltex - a
combination of wheat or barley combined together. Also we
would have preferably not cows' milk but that prepared with
the DRIED milk, which will make for the better assimilation
of the active forces; and may be prepared with the regular
combination of malted milk, you see - but may be altered at
times from the plain to the chocolate flavored, as they are
prepared in both ways and manners. We find also that
Coco-Malt would be a good drink at times for the body; well
prepared - and when it is prepared, let it be prepared with
skimmed milk; not too rich a milk for the body in the
beginning of the increasing of the weight and the diet for
the activities in this body of [
786].
Noons - a part of this meal should consist of the vegetable
juices, as Gerber's - or they may be combined from fresh
vegetable juices, but not where they have been cooked with
greases. Better that these be the juices taken from
vegetables prepared in a steam cooker or Patapar paper, then
only seasoned for the strengthening forces that may make it
palatable to the body. And a little fowl or wild game may be
given at times to the body.
Evenings - principally either milk that is combined with
buttermilk or that which is made into same with the use of
the tablets for making same, you see; or the hot milk, or the
warm combinations of milk, whole wheat toast, and the like.
Do these for thirty to sixty days. Then we would give
further instructions.
Ready for questions.
(Q) How may you get a child of this age to eat green lettuce
and green cabbage?
(A) It'll have to be cut up and seasoned, and taken. It
won't take a large quantity, but it is the effect of these
that we need for the activity of the calomel and santonin to
have its effect upon the infesting forces of the body.
(Q) Should this quantity of calomel and santonin be given as
one dose?
(A) As one dose, or it may be given in broken doses if it is
so desired - which would require that it be given, of course,
half to an hour apart, if broken into one grains, you see.
We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND
12/18/34 Grandmother's letter: "You will remember having
done some work for me in behalf of my husband, [
4827], some
3-4 years ago. Through Dr. Ketchum [Wesley H. Ketchum, M.D.]
we followed out your instructions which greatly improved his
condition. I now have two little grandchildren who are
needing medical attention badly but we are unable to obtain a
correct diagnosis for them. [
785], a little girl of 2 yrs.,
and [
786], boy age 1 yr."
12/28/34 She verified appointment but did not mention any
symptoms or questions to be asked about the children.
1/09/35 A.M. 11:15-11:30, EC gave the little girl's reading,
785-1. Immediately following it the following reading
[786-1] was given for [
786].
REPORTS
EC awoke [from 786-1], looked surprised and said, "What's the
matter?"
2/11/35 Grandmother referred Mr. [
855] for a Physical Rdg.
3/30/35 Grandmother's letter: "So sorry not to have written
you sooner to thank you for the readings which you sent my
little grandchildren. We started right in with the work as
directed and have had very good results...We gave the calomel
to [
786] as directed and he had his first good night's sleep
in months. But it didn't seem to get the worms as he showed
the same symptoms soon afterward, so in three weeks time we
repeated the dose and got a quantity of pinworms..." [See
complete letter under
785-1 Reports.]
4/15/35 Mother's letter:
Dear Mr. Cayce,
I would like to add just a note to Mother's to tell you how
deeply grateful I am for the tremendous help you've given us
with the babies. They have improved tremendously and we all
feel better in spirit and health because of it.
I hope I have not burdened you with too many questions - some
of them may be unnecessary after your next reading.
Again, I do thank you - it must be a source of great
happiness to you to be doing so great a service - I hope that
we may soon be able to properly recompense that service.
Sincerely, [...]
