TEXT

1. EC: [1103], we have had before. We have the body here.
2. As we find, there may be material changes and help brought to this body with the PERSISTENT and CONSISTENT applications of that which will ABSORB those lesions formed by the breaking of cellular forces in the lumbar and the lower dorsal areas. This is produced by overstrain, caused by activity in the circulation by acidity and thinning of the walls of the circulatory forces deep in the system.
3. So, we would use rubs AND adjustments. The rubs would be away FROM the body, NOT toward the body, with a combination in this manner:
4. To 1 quart of regular or White Gasoline as the base, add - in the order named:

   Oil of Pine Needles...........1/2 ounce,
Oil of Cedar Wood...............1 ounce,
Oil of Wintergreen..............1 ounce,
Compound Tincture of Benzoin....2 ounces (This makes it
gummy, but it will be cut by the next one, which would
be),
Oil of Sassafras..............1/2 ounce.

   These will tend to separate if standing long, but these should be used at least once every day, and take ten to fifteen minutes in applying them. Begin at about the 4th dorsal, or just below where the plexus begins which governs the arms - or the brachial center. Rub DOWN, along the spinal area. When coming to the axis of the lumbar area, rub crosswise or to the top of the hips. Then down the sciatic center. Rub the toes just as much as you would across the back, but always AWAY FROM the body - see? These oils should be shaken together and used each day.
5. Use the Wet Cell Battery as is ORDINARILY used - the Radio Active, and keep it charged at least every twenty-six days.
6. Do this consistently, and we will find in sixty to ninety days - well, he can kick up his heels as well as ever!
7. (Q) What causes, and what should be done for, skipping of heart beat?
   (A) We begin at the 4th dorsal with the rub, you see, which is the lower end of the secondary cardiac plexus - and is the working of the circulation against the lesion that exists there. This has caused the pressure upon the locomotories in the lumbar center.
   As the active forces of the electricity are given to the extremities, alter from one side to the other, you see; watching the change in the circulation. This would be given not more than ten minutes in the beginning, gradually increasing as the pulsation or the heart's activity changes. For if a test would be taken it would be found that - in the skipping, as it is called - there is three beats less in the lower extremities than that in the wrist or the temple. This electrical application is to equalize it. Increase the period gradually until thirty minutes may be given, by the time it is charged the third or fourth time.
   Be mindful to keep the eliminations well, and we will find we will have much nearer normal conditions.
   Make up your mind that you want to do something with the activities, and you'll have something to do it with!
8. We are through with this Reading.
