TEXT

1. EC: As we find, the conditions are progressing very satisfactorily. In the administration for the eliminations, owing to conditions in the rectal area and the natural needs for eliminations from the poisons that have been indicated as being excessive in the system, we find that those that have been given are very good.
2. But more of the Alkaline PETROLAGAR than just the Oil would be preferable.
3. And in the manipulations, make SPECIFIC adjustments in the feet and limbs. These will tend to keep the circulation much better and relieve much of that tension in the lumbar axis.
4. The rest we would keep as has been given.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Is the rectum healing properly?
   (A) As given, these conditions are very satisfactory in the present.
7. (Q) Is the nourishment that is being given correct?
   (A) The nourishment is very well. Tend to those things that are laxatives and that carry plenty of iron and the building up for the system - these are the better. Plenty, of course, of oranges; meat JUICES but not too much of the fats of same - as the Beef Juice - these are VERY strengthening; and as for the vegetables, keep them well balanced.
8. (Q) How much of the Cascara and Petrolagar should be taken at a dose?
   (A) As indicated, these are very good; only we would increase the ALKALINE Petrolagar a teaspoonful when the dosage is taken that has been indicated - this would be preferable. The ointments or the applications to the areas are very good.
9. We are through with this reading.
