TEXT

1. GC: You will give a physical and mental reading on this body, with suggestions for the improvement of either or both of these.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. Now, we find there are those physical conditions with this body that may be improved. There are other physical forces of which the body should be warned, that the correction of same in their inspiency might bring better conditions to the physical functioning of the organism of this body. In these we find there are two distinctive elements that enter. One that is of a correction that should be made in the cerebrospinal system. One - yea two - of the centers show there are subluxations, and that these hinder the body from functioning in a normal manner. These conditions have much to do with the nervous spells that come to the body in various forms of cycle functioning of the organism. The subluxations we find are in the 8th and 9th dorsal, and in the 4th lumbar. These conditions are of those which the body should be warned, and the correction of which would bring better conditions for the body. These should be corrected, preferably, by the osteopathic adjustments and manipulation with same, that would correct the general condition as has been produced in system from same.
4. In the functional troubles, we find there are conditions existing in the pelvic organs that give distress. These need attention in a local manner to bring about the normal condition of the system. These conditions produce that of the distress to the nerve system, especially in headaches to the central portion of the brain. In the repression as this condition brings about, we see there are many various conditions that are reflexly produced, as is seen in the sensory system and in the sympathetic system, for with the subluxation, and with the functional condition as is caused, then the condition produced in nerve reflexes brings about a taxation to those plexuses as govern the system through reflex from solar plexus and from the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexus, disturbing digestion, as well as bringing ringing to the ears at times, distresses to the sensory system.
5. In the correction of this we would find many conditions would be assisted. In the manner of correction would be by local application antiseptics, and the like, in packs, to correct and bring about the NORMAL condition in pelvic organs.
6. IN THE MENTAL FORCES OF THE BODY, these we find very good in many ways, yet these repressions through subluxations, and these conditions as exist in nerve system, often bring to the body those of that of the depression that causes little things to become very large in the mental image of the body, and the body takes the body-mental images as realities when they are only imaginations of the entity's own making. With the correction of physical conditions, correction of subluxations, and correction of the physical functioning organs of the body, we will find these will bring better conditions to the system, through the mental forces in body.
7. In the correction then of each, as has been given, we will find we will bring about the better physical and mental conditions for this body.
8. The body mentally has many talents that are subjugated, through the lack of the expression as is often desired by the entity through mental forces. This suppression causes that of the disagreeable conditions at times, through that of being oppressed when others do not understand the condition. Correcting mentally, through the correction in physical, will give many advantages to the body, so we will find better expression in self, mentally and physically.
9. Then, do that, [4568].
10. We are through for the present.

   "They are in very moderate circumstances and their daughter and son-in-law (who just finished college last spring) are without a job.
   "Does Mr. Cayce ever give readings for five dollars? If not, could they pay as they could toward the ten dollars per reading?
   "They are lovely people. Am sure Mr. Cayce would like them. In fact, I think Mrs. [4568] once had a reading on her father, [173]. They are very eager for these readings, so I would appreciate a reply as soon as possible, and I shall notify Mrs. [4568] accordingly. (She is in Dallas.)
   "Thanking you for all the trouble..."
