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 have been submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, Mr. [1519].
3. As we find, there is rather an ACUTE disturbance; though its activity is rather well distributed in manners through the system.
4. Owing to the appetites, there has been the inclination or tendency for the formation of pinworms, - not so much the stomach worms as those through the lower portion - and the activities in portions of the jejunum.
5. As we find, these would be best handled in this manner:
6. First, for at least two or three meals, take only raw cabbage or celery or lettuce, or ALL of these.
7. And THEN take Santonin with Calomel, - or the combination as may be bought for worm candy, see? This would be taken after at least two meals have been had of only the vegetables or vegetable juices of that nature (raw, you see). This dose would be taken in the evening then, you see.
8. This as we find will not only eliminate these, but will take away the causes for the body's tendencies for cold and congestion, the inclinations to PICK at the nostril and the mouth, and to rub the eyes, and for swellings even that come on portions of the body because of the very activity from these poisons in the system.
9. After the eliminations have been produced by the Calomel and Santonin, it would be well the next day to take in broken doses the Fletcher's Castoria; that the stomach AND alimentary canal may be sweetened and cause a better activity throughout the system.
10. Keep away from sweets! except it be honey - for at least five or six weeks! No cakes, no tarts, - not even ice cream would be very well. ICES would be very well if so desired, or sherbets, - but NOT other things nor great quantities of any kind of meat.
11. These would be the better things for this body.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What should be the dosage of the Calomel and Santonin?
    (A) If these are bought in the tablets, there would be taken two of the tablets.
14. (Q) Is there any nasal, sinus or throat trouble?
    (A) These will gradually disappear, all of these effects, if the condition is cleared as indicated. Such effects are being produced by the poisons and the LACK of the blood flow through these portions.
15. We are through with this Reading.
