TEXT

GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2514]; this we have had before.
Now as we find, while there are at times many discouraging and disturbing conditions arising, there is SO MUCH improvement that the body SHOULD feel very much elated rather than discouraged.
Realize, - the sources of disturbance are the affectation to the production, or to the body-rebuilding, of the skin itself; or that is the NATURE of the disturbing factor. And this arises from what might be called a consumptive or tubercle effect in portions of the body.
The condition is of such a nature that when it attacks any portion where there is any pressure or irritation, it cause the greater activity of the disturbing forces to the areas affected; and there is the natural result of the lymph attempting to ward off such conditions - or the activity of the warriors or leucocytes in the blood stream itself.
The very nature of the disturbance is the lack of such conditions, - that is, the leucocytes, - so as to cause the blisters, the water, and the quantities of fluid. And this being of a nature lacking in healing influence in itself, or the ability of coagulating forces, causes the creating of the sores, that gradually eat in. Thus the condition that causes the disturbance with this body in the present, under the knee and on the areas of the body where there have been sores.
That these have cleared considerably is MOST gratifying; should be most gratifying to the body.
There are necessities for changes occasionally. These are needed in the present.
Of course, do not rub or irritate those areas on knees, or under - but cleanse with the Cuticura and use that ointment which has been indicated for the larger sores. This is to be put close to the edge and not too much over the whole raw area at once. But do apply on the ankle, feet and limbs, and all portions not broken, the Oil Packs - regularly.
Do keep the Appliance fully charged. Do keep the connections correct. Do keep the solutions changed at least every fifteen days, - that is, the chemicals. Do change the charging solution, - that is, the acid, the zinc, the others, - every thirty days. These, if they are applied, will bring results.
Keep the body quite warm, free from cold and exposure of self. Of course, the natural atmospheric pressures have their effect. The greater disturbance has been caused in the present from the very low temperature and the body getting chilled.
When it is practical, keep in the sunshine, but not exposed in such a way that there is the liability of getting damp or the feet cold, or the chilly sensations.
Do keep the body building foods. As much of the foods as may be assimilated that carry the whole grain, - as in cereals, both wheat and barley and oats, or these combined in their various forms (as in Maltex or the like). Plenty of all characters of citrus fruits, but these not taken at the same meal when the cereals are taken - rather alternate these.
Do take plenty of beef juices, liver, pigs' feet, tripe and the like; for these carry the principles that will eradicate and eliminate the disturbing forces. For, there must be added in the body through the assimilation those healing forces to the disturbed system from the destructive forces to the glands, and there must be the creating of blood supply from the bone structure itself.
Hence we would take, now, CALCIOS at least twice a week - the quantity as would be spread on a whole wheat cracker or the like.
Do take ACIGEST three times each week, almost - not quite - a teaspoonful stirred in a tumbler or glass of raw milk. Stir very thoroughly. If the milk is warm from the animal heat it would be all the better, though do not heat same. Stir in the Acigest, let stand four to five minutes, and drink.
Do these and we will find we will continue to improve.
And then keep the mental attitude, - a creative, constructive influence. As the body realizes, it has much to live for; the responsibility of the home, of the offspring. Then use the abilities, the constructive forces, for creating (mentally) that environ that is the ideal for the creating of peace and harmony in the experience of the companion as well. And these will bring harmony within self. For, with what measure we mete, - mentally and physically, it is measured to us again.
Thus there is the necessity of having, of being in the spiritual attitude of harmony with LIFE. And life is God. God manifested is the Christ. His promises are to abide. Keep that very close.
We are through with this reading.

(See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Pure Beef Juice.
Calcios and Acigest are manufactured and distributed by the Colloidal Health Products Corp., Atten. A. A. Nichoson, Greenvale, Long Island, N.Y. The Calcios is a syrupy paste that sells for $2.50 a jar. According to the rdgs. it is the best way of assimilating free calcium. Acigest is a liquid that sells for $1 a bottle, - it is hydrochloric acid in a form that is best suited for the system.
Note: Both of these are used with remarkable results in cases of T.B.)

REPORTS

2/03/42 Letter from [2514] to EC: "You'll never know how thrilled I was when I received my rdg. I knew I was lots better but to have you tell me so was marvelous. Week before last Dr. Gene [Gene Barlaban, D.C.] rechecked the places on my back. As soon as she saw me she said, 'Oh, my dear, you are so much better.' She said there was so much difference in my arms, neck, back, and skin as a whole. That was most encouraging.
"I had my first beef juice this afternoon. My, but it certainly [is] delicious - what an easy way to eat a steak! I had three teaspoonsful. Tonight I had seared liver for supper. I want to ask you about the liver. Should the liver be calf of any certain kind? How should it be cooked. Does this include brains? What kind? How cooked?
"I tried to get the Acigest and Calcios here and in Nashville, but they don't have it, so will have to order it from New York.
"Today I've been so nervous, and my knees have ached so bad. Lately however I've felt real good.
"Dr. Gene has been so interested in me. She calls real often asking about me. Today she called asking if I drink plenty of water. I'm sure I should drink more than I do, but am trying to increase it all the time. Shouldn't I drink lots - is sweet milk all right for me to drink?
"Mother saw and talked to Mrs. [2526] yesterday. Mother said she looked so bad. I do wish she could arrange to take all her treatments. We called her today, and she said she felt better today.
"I've been worried about anyone catching my disease. I asked in my last reading if it was contagious but it wasn't answered. Could you possibly ease my mind?"
1. What is pink place on top of my head? Treatment? 2. Can anything be done for my knees? 3. Is my disease catching? Is it the same disease I had when a child? 4. In case Castor Oil cannot be obtained in the future, could anything else be used as a substitute?
3/24/42 Letter: "In the past six weeks much has happened. Of course I'm certainly not well but I do believe I'm lots better. I'm writing you for a Ck. Rdg. Any hour that you set will suit me fine, for I'll arrange to be here at home. If only something could be done about my knees. I feel real good sitting or lying down but when I try to walk it's another story. My knees are so weak they hardly hold me up. The places behind my knees aren't quite so thick but they still look terrible. So if I'm going to be able to go to the Congress in June something must be done about my knees.
"What are we going to do if we can't get Castor Oil? The price of the oils is sky high and still going up. The war doesn't suit me at all as far as the oils are concerned! Is there anything else we could use if we can't get the Castor Oil in times to come? Thank you for your kindness."
