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 she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. Now as we find, there is an improvement in the structural positions of the body from that as we have had here before.
4. While there continues to be those anxieties and those disturbing influences as arise from some disturbance through the glandular system, we find that there is considerable improvement in the body.
5. In the present then, we would keep the applications of the Radio-Active Appliance in the manner it has been applied. This would be taken at the time that is most convenient, but as close to the periods when the body can rest without disturbance as possible. Use such periods for the prayer and meditation, as has been indicated for the body.
6. Read thoroughly the admonitions that have been indicated, applying them to self; and there will be a great improvement in the attitude of the body - if there is the adherence to those influences.
7. We would not use the osteopathic corrective forces in the immediate; that is, we would rest from these for at least three or four weeks.
8. Each morning, though, before any meal is taken, we would take one minim of Atomidine in half a glass of water as a purifier for the whole of the glandular forces of the body. Take this in series; that is, take it for five to six or seven days, or a week, see? leave off for five days, then take for another week, leave off for five day more, then take for another week; just the one minim, you see, so that it will not upset the system but tend to make for the purifying and creating a better balance in the glandular activity.
9. After the rest period from the osteopathic treatments for three to four weeks, then there may be begun the adjustments again; at that time having more of those relaxations for the upper dorsal and through the cervical area, but keeping the lumbar axis and coccyx balanced with the rest of the system.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) Have I entered my menopause?
    (A) As we find, while there is some retarding, we do not find it entering as yet; though the glandular disturbances cause disorder in these directions.
    The manipulative forces, the equal balance being created by the Radio-Active vibrations, with the attitudes, should make for better conditions in these directions also.
12. (Q) Are the ductless glands affected?
    (A) As indicated, all of the glands are involved. Hence the purifying of same, since there IS the ability of the system to set up better eliminations. To have stimulated same without the corrective measures having been made would have been only to magnify the disturbance in portions of the system.
13. (Q) Am I using the Radio-Active Appliance correctly?
    (A) As indicated.
14. (Q) If Dr. Thompson has not returned at the end of the three to four week rest period suggested for me, who is suggested to give me these treatments?
    (A) Then choose someone who may have been associated with Dr. Thompson.
15. (Q) How often should I then take the treatments?
    (A) About twice a week for three weeks, rest then a week to ten days, and then have another series.
    And after the second or third such round, we would give further instructions.
16. (Q) Continuing the treatments as outlined in the Reading, how long before I should have definite mental improvement?
    (A) Within the next four to five weeks.
17. (Q) Any further advice?
    (A) Do these as we find for the best for this body, [1773].
18. We are through with this Reading.

REPORTS

1. 2/08/39 EC's letter to [1773]:
   Dear Mrs. [1773]:
   Yours of the 2nd received - and had a special reading to get for Sunday afternoon that was a check reading so wired you. Do hope you will soon be feeling a great deal better Mrs. [1773]. Am most anxious that you do - for as said some how have felt a special interest in you. We have three Mrs. [1773] - or each is spelled a bit different - and each of the others have known for several years and think a great deal of each of them so guess it is natural would feel drawn to you. One, [480], you possibly have heard of there in ... the other [1713] in ... - have known her many years in fact years before she married Mr. [...].
   But trust you find the suggestions help - and surely hope you will feel that you were talking to one you can confide in. For am surely hoping we can and will be of help.
   Let me hear from you.
   With all good wishes
   Sincerely, [signed] Edgar Cayce
2. 4/01/39 [1773]'s letter to EC:
   ..., Mich.
   Dear Mr. Cayce -
   I am sorry to be so late in sending this letter with my check.
   Our house is in quarantine for scarlet fever and I only learned this P.M. that the Board of Health would allow mail to go out of the house as long as the person who is ill has not been in contact with it.
   As for myself - sometimes I think I am better - then again I don't. I had a cold about a month ago that seemed to set me back. Have been going to the osteopath regularly.
   I don't think there are any questions in particular this time. Just would like to know how you find my condition to be now, as this is about the time suggested in my first check reading for further instructions.
   Hastily, [1773] (Mrs. [1773])
3. 4/03/39 See 1773-3.
