TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2356] - this we have had before. Conditions are somewhat improved with this body. The rest, the manipulations, and the active forces within body are good. The battery would be helpful for the pressure and the headaches, and for the sleeplessness - the plain Radio-Active Appliance, would be well. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) Is diet as given correct?
   (A) Very good, though it may be altered somewhat from time to time to meet the needs of the activity of the kidneys; also the pressure as is produced at times from gas.
   This, then, would be added with those of Magnesia, or Milk of Magnesia would be helpful, just before or with the meals - see?
3. (Q) Could very mild sweats be given?
   (A) Sweats may be given, but not with the temperature of the body raised. Best the fume baths for this body. Make - raise the temperature of the cabinet to that of about 85 to 90, see? Then use those of the combination of the alkaloids as would be found in witchhazel and in RUB alcohol. These, one on one side, one on the other. Same may be raised so that the body easily perspires from same. The combination of these will be found that ONE will act much faster than the other. Hence precaution must be taken in the MANNER in which this would be given, but this would be beneficial. Rub the body down thoroughly after that, and we will find a different reaction in the capillary circulation, but don't raise the body temperature too high, else this blood pressure will be harmful to it.
4. (Q) Would you recommend colon irrigations?
   (A) Not just as yet, though these should be made - the eliminations should be made easier for the body.
5. (Q) Approximately how long before body is near normal?
   (A) Three to four weeks should see a great deal of change, to where the body may take care of self.
6. That is all the questions regarding this body.
7. We are through with this reading.
