TEXT

1. HLC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving suggestions for further corrective measures and help for this body. You will answer the questions he submits, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1710]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there is a great deal of improvement throughout the general physical forces of the body; though at times some distress is caused in those areas where there has been muscular tension, and where structural portions in the areas have shown some disturbance.
4. But so long as there is the adherence to those suggestions as we have indicated for the osteopathic adjustments (though they need not be taken so often), and the closer adherence to the diets indicated, we will find the conditions continuing to improve.
5. There should be sufficient of the adjustments to relax the nerve tension in the muscular forces. As to how many, or as to how often, would depend upon how tired or how TAUT the body becomes, - and also upon how well the treatments are given. As we find, once a week SHOULD be sufficient. Take five or six and then leave them off for three to four weeks, - that is, provided these are done properly, and the proper foods and other applications are made.
6. (Q) Would you suggest an osteopath? in Baltimore?
   (A) Anyone that will do that as suggested.
7. (Q) Would it be more advisable for me to go to Dr. Waters in Washington, even considering the necessary trip back to Baltimore after the treatment?
   (A) Not necessarily. There's just as good in Baltimore. You might find more cooperation with Waters, - and if that is better desired, then do that. Then, PROVIDED there ARE the adjustments sufficient to relax the nerve tension in the muscular forces, we would also add these:
   EACH day for twenty-four days take a level teaspoonful of Knox Gelatine in a little orange juice of morning, with or at the morning meal. It would be better if a little lemon was squeezed into about two to three ounces of the orange juice, - a pinch of lemon, or three to six to ten drops of the lemon juice stirred in same. Then more orange juice may be taken afterwards, of course, if desired. This will aid, or assist in giving better tension, - provided there ARE the osteopathic applications as indicated.
   About once or twice each day we would take the ADIRON; two pellets at a time; each day at the mealtime; for two to three weeks at least. Then leave this off for two to three weeks, and then begin taking again.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Please outline the proper diet, suggesting things to avoid?
   (A) Avoid too much of the heavy meats not well cooked. Eat plenty of vegetables of all characters. The meats taken would be preferably fish, fowl and lamb; others NOT so often. Breakfast bacon, crisp, may be taken occasionally. These as we find are the better foods, if all of these things suggested are taken.
10. (Q) What can be done to strengthen left shoulder, to prevent it slipping out of joint?
    (A) Do the things we have indicated.
11. (Q) Would an exercise help that; if so, what kind?
    (A) This is to be exercised by the osteopath, or else don't take the other things indicated! This is to be exercised by the adjustments, and the tensions removed so that the tendons may be strengthened by the use of the properties indicated in both the ADIRON (carrying the vitamins that will work well with the other properties) AND the strengthening forces in the Gelatine or gluten.
12. (Q) Should the Alcaroid be continued?
    (A) When necessary to make for better eliminations, or better digestion, take! If it is not needed, don't take it!
13. We are through with this Reading.
