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. As we find, conditions show some improvements since last we had same here.
4. The cleansing of the system through the alimentary canal has been helpful.
5. The strengthening forces from the use of the beef juice are very well. This should not be taken in too large quantities, but may be sipped often; and as conditions progress it is well that the Graham or Whole Wheat Crackers be crumbled in the small quantity taken - or grated in same.
6. Another strengthening food for this body would be a combination prepared in this manner, - that will work with the eliminations, to assist in absorbing those inclinations for the formations of gas owing to the inability of perfect mastication of most foods:
7. Take a cup of Black Syrian Figs and a cup of Dates. Seed them. Cut or grind these together. Then add a half a cup of water. Let it almost come to a boil. Then add a tablespoonful of Yellow Corn Meal.
8. This will be almost as a gruel when fully prepared, and would be kept upon ice or in a place for the preservation of its abilities to be active without fermentation. This quantity may last for two days. It may be taken at each meal if so desired, and may be taken with milk or cream or without, just as is preferable to the body.
9. As to other foods, - all vegetables that grow ABOVE the ground, that are well prepared; also those foods that grow under the ground if they are well cooked, - as carrots and onions. As to meats, - these should be those that are easily masticated by their being so well cooked IN THEIR JUICES!
10. Do these, and with those other applications that have been indicated, we should make for a still greater improvement for this body, [1907].
11. We are through with this Reading.
