TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. Conditions continue to be apparently LOSING rather than gaining.
4. As we find, now, we would change again the applications as would be for the betterment of this body of [1465].
5. There has been sufficient of the Baths, and the weakening condition that exists needs now that as may bring greater strength and a building influence.
6. We would begin - as soon as practical - with the use of the low Wet Cell Appliance that would carry Gold one day, Atomidine the next day, and Camphor the next day. These properties are to act upon the body through the electrical reactory forces to give stamina, now, to the nerve forces, to the body-building elements that make for stamina through muscular forces and the activity of healing influences.
7. The attachments would be made as follows:
8. The first day, the small copper plate would be attached to the 4th lumbar or the lumbar axis, while the larger nickel plate, through which the Gold Solution passes (in the proportions of one grain Chloride of Gold to each ounce of Distilled Water - and there would be used at least five ounces of the Solution, you see), would be attached to the umbilicus and lacteal duct center.
9. The next day, the small copper plate would be attached to the 3rd cervical center, while the larger nickel plate, through which the Atomidine Solution would pass (in the proportions of two ounces commercial strength Atomidine to one ounce of Distilled Water) would be attached to the umbilicus and lacteal duct center the same as the day before.
10. The next day, the small copper plate would be attached to the 9th dorsal center, while the large nickel plate, through which the Camphor Solution passes (commercial strength Spirits of Camphor), would be attached to the umbilicus and lacteal duct center - the same as the day before.
11. These, to be sure, are to be used in separate containers or bottles, - and the applicator extending into the Solution should be removed from the Solution each time after it has been applied.
12. These attachments would continue to be made in rotation, you see, - each being used for thirty minutes, you see; the Gold one day, the Atomidine the next, the Camphor the next; being sure to make the attachments each time as indicated - for that particular Solution.
13. Each evening, after the Appliance is used, follow same with a gentle massage with Olive Oil, - especially along the spine and over the abdomen.
14. Every fifteen days change the Solutions. Every thirty days recharge the Appliance.
15. Do that for at least two charges of the Appliance.
16. We are through with this Reading.

    (4/06/39 GD's note: See article [which was enclosed] explaining theory of Wet Cell Appliance, also illustration. Miss [528], ..., Ky., used one of these Appliances and you might be able to get it from her parents whom I think are still in ... It would save you having to buy one right at this time.)
