TEXT

1. GC: you will answer the questions regarding this body, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Am I doing all I can to improve my ear condition?
   (A) If there is the consistent use of those suggestions being administered, these should correct the conditions here.
   The anxieties and the general nervousness, of course, have excited and do excite especially the sensory nerves and reactions. However, we find that there is shown response to the administrations made. Then, just be consistent with them.
4. (Q) Would it be wise to give Estrogenic Hormone or Theelin injections recommended by Dobbins? If so, in what dosage?
   (A) If so desired. However, we find that those properties indicated, if taken as indicated, are having the desired effect.
5. (Q) What has caused my last few severe headaches, and how can this condition be improved or prevented?
   (A) As we find, this is a general condition, and arises most from the general nervous tension. And the relaxing of the body, by remaining quiet in meditation, should be the greater help for such conditions.
   If and when necessary, any analgesic is the better application for nerve tension, for it tends to be a stimulation to superficial circulation.
6. (Q) What must I do to be certain of daily, adequate elimination? Will Sealax tablets with meals answer this need?
   (A) Sealax tablets will answer at times. The variations in diet, - the laxative diets, - will also help at times. When there isn't sufficient elimination, or when there is the feeling of dullness, and especially fullness towards the abdomen, use an enema.
7. (Q) How many osteopathic treatments, how much more Tonicine, am I to take before leaving for summer in Michigan?
   (A) The change should be a helpful condition.
   As to the numbers of the osteopathic treatments, or the quantity of Tonicine, - this will depend upon general conditions. But if there is the activity regularly, of taking these in the manner indicated, and the treatments taken AS conditions permit, there should be sufficient taken by the time for the trip to Michigan.
8. (Q) Should I discontinue Tonicine during entire Michigan stay?
   (A) Unless disturbing conditions arise in those directions of the change. For, the activity in the open, and the change of environment, and the general relaxation, should be sufficient stimulation for the general welfare in these directions.
   But, should there come any general conditions that would be upsetting, or any undue excitement, it would be very well to have this on hand.
9. (Q) How long is it advisable to remain at Dad's Island, northern Mich.?
   (A) This, of course, should be dependent upon the general needs and conditions. But such an environ, such a stay, should be physically most beneficial, - as well as in a general way; and we would not hurry same.
10. (Q) Should I take any pills, tonics, Adiron, Atomidine or the like, while in Mich.? If so, what and how much?
    (A) No.
11. (Q) Any instructions as to food or exercise while in Mich.?
    (A) The general relaxation, and foods as related to the eliminations, would be the only additional suggestions in these directions.
    The exercises that are the natural consequence of the environs, with the daily activities, should be in keeping with the better conditions for the body.
12. (Q) Please give instructions for conducting a daily deep meditation, with a prayer for use.
    (A) The activities of meditation are personal. The preparations for same, to some individuals, are just as necessary as the meditation itself. For, as is comprehended in the minds of most of those who seek to meditate, the attitude of the individual is the greater incentive for such. Then, - we would first have a regular period. Then, in whatever form is most desirable, cleanse the body and mind. Then, relaxing, gently, - let this be as the theme, though in thine own words:
    "LORD of might, of love, be Thou the guide in the things I do and say day by day; that my body, my mind, may fill that purpose Thou hast for me among those of my household, my home, my loved ones, my friends, and all I meet day by day.
    "Help me to use each opportunity to be a light bearer for Thee, in His name.
    "Keep me, ever."
13. (Q) How long before I can achieve a dependable state of health, if instructions are followed?
    (A) By the early or middle Fall.
14. We are through with this Reading.
