TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. Many changes physical are seen in the physical forces of the body from that as we have had here before. In the change that causes discomfort to the body at present, is a form of poor eliminations, and this may be aided in correction through the application of those conditions internally and externally.
2. We would, then, for the corrective measures, use as this: Take Occy-Crystine with sufficient quantity of water that the alimentary canal may be entirely cleansed. Take as in THIS manner, beginning the first day with one teaspoonful in three glasses of water, or in one glass drinking two glasses of water afterward. The next day two teaspoonsful in four glasses of water, or with four glasses of water. The next day take teaspoonful and a half and use five glasses of water - drink ALL of it - for this will tend to dilate the stomach, especially in the lower end, where the tendency is to form accumulations that, unless corrected, must bring indigestion of the nature that would prove very detrimental to the body.
3. Of mornings, before the meal is taken, take twenty grains Sulphur, Cream of Tartar, Epsom Salts - twenty grains of each.
4. We would also have those eliminations as will come from the draining or the cleansing of the colon. These we would have at least once each week for three treatments, and we will find the conditions will be better set up in the body.
5. In the diets, these are very good - but we would change somewhat in and to THIS manner: These, however, may be ALTERNATED to meet the desires of the body physical.
6. Morning meals should be principally those of dry toast with fruit juices, or cream of wheat or rolled oats, with Ovaltine - not coffee, NOT milk.
7. In the noon meal - these should be principally of well cooked vegetables, and may be had with whole wheat bread but not white bread, or with the oaten bread. These also may have MILK - at this meal. These may be changed according to the needs of the body in the character of the vegetables.
8. In the evening, small QUANTITIES of meat may be taken - but none other than that of mutton, or of beef that is well done, and must be MASTICATED well before taken into the system. No coffee, and most of all none of those of soft drinks. Ice cream may be rarely taken, but not too much.
9. DO that, and we will find the conditions clearing the skin better, and the MASSAGE should be those that STIMULATE the whole of the cerebrospinal system, that the COORDINATION may be made between the eliminations as go THROUGH the alimentary canal, the respiratory system, and the kidneys. Do that. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) How long should the sulphur and cream of tartar and salts be kept up?
    (A) Until there is seen a difference in the complexion, especially that heaviness under eyes. Now, there is seen that there is the same combinations active in the Occy-Crystine as in that of the sulphur, cream of tartar and salts. The active principles are MUCH the same, only one is in an acid PRODUCING condition that forms for the system an ALKALIN reaction. Hence should be taken at different times in the day. This, as seen, will make KIDNEYS OVER active, but this should not worry the body, if the system is being drained.
11. (Q) Is smoking injurious?
    (A) In moderation not injurious, but there should be moderation. After noon meal may be taken; after evening meal it may be taken - but NOT of morning, and NEVER at night! late at night.
12. (Q) Any local application for the itching?
    (A) There may be added for that where the irritation becomes severe, those of Magnesia, Chalk and Tolu. This would be rubbed on. The tolu is, of course, that as is powdered.
13. (Q) To be put on as a powder or an ointment?
    (A) As powder.
14. (Q) Should this be prepared in equal parts?
    (A) It's compounded, you see, here. Powers & Whitman; also Parke Davis; also those of many of the others make such a preparation. Chalk and Balsam, see? Like they use for babies!
15. (Q) Any further advice for this body?
    (A) Do as has been given. We will bring the corrections for this body, [1005]. We are through with this reading.
