This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 21st day of October, 1936, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [1100], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. L. B. Cayce.]

Time of Reading 4:30 to 4:40 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Mich. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before.

2. As we find, there are acute conditions produced by a general debilitation from overexercise or activity, and cold and congestion, which have made for infectious forces through the tissue of the throat, the bronchi and larynx.

3. This as we find is producing pus forming in the blood and the distribution of same causes the general aching, the general reaction to the excretory and secretive system, and temperature.

4. As we would find, in meeting the emergencies, first we would give:

5. Rub the feet and lower limbs, after very hot mustard bath with equal portions Mutton Suet, Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor. Keep them very warm. This to act upon the circulation and to overcome this general tendency for colds.

6. Make for a spray with this:

7. To 1/2 ounce of Grain Alcohol - at least 95% - add:

Distilled Water…2 ounces, Oil of Eucalyptol…5 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp…2 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…10 minims.

8. Use this as a spray.

9. This we we find should, within twenty-four hours, ease the body a great deal.

10. For the general building up of the system, we would take first a course of Atomidine; beginning (after this has been eased) first with one minim in half a glass of water before the morning meal, two minims before retiring. The next day two minims before the morning meal, three minims before retiring. The next day three minims before the morning meal, five minims before retiring. Then rest one day and begin all over again, see?

11. We would also take the Valentine’s juices of liver or liver extract.

12. And be mindful that in the rest of the diet it is kept close to the alkaline, or twenty percent acid-producing to eighty percent alkalin-producing food values.

13. Plenty of corn bread, in whatever way prepared. The scalded or the egg bread. This with the meal cakes even of a morning. Honey as a carrier with same or to eat with same is very good.

14. These as we find should make for corrections.

15. To be sure, have manipulations to reduce that swelling in the upper dorsal and throughout the cervical area, with the treatment around the head, the neck, and especially back of the ears and over the vagus center.

16. Do these.

17. Ready for questions.

18. (Q) How often should the spray be used? (A) Every two or two and a half hours.

19. (Q) How long should the Atomidine be kept up, or should the two courses only be taken? (A) Take first the two courses, rest a week and take another two courses. These should balance the system, if the other things are kept; that is, the manipulations and the stimulation for a general building up.

20. (Q) How often should the manipulations be given? (A) This depends upon the response of the body. These may be given every day until there is the reduction of these conditions, or else we may localize the conditions, see?

Of course, keep an eliminant through the alimentary canal to work off the poisons. The Caroid and Bile Salts Tablets or Zilatone Tablets are those that will stir the liver the better. These to be taken, to be sure, after the first day or so of the spray and the combinations and the applications of the manipulations.

21. (Q) How should these be taken for this body? (A) Preferably Zilatone taken one after the morning meal (half an hour), one after the noon meal, two after the evening meal. This should be sufficient.

If the Caroid and Bile Salts are taken, take two after the evening meal, two after the morning meal.

22. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 10/25/36 Letter: ”…How thankful I am to the good Lord to have you when we need you! You were kind, indeed, to answer my appeal so promptly and I want you to know how greatly I appreciate your doing so. Guess I was much sicker than I realized, but began to improve immediately on starting the hot mustard foot bath. The sore throat started a few days before I wired you but, of course, I didn’t realize it would be so severe. Went down to Dr. Thompson on Monday and Tuesday but didn’t respond all, so said to him, ‘I cannot go on like this, as I am feeling miserable, so am going to wire Mr. Cayce.’ I did so and must say that I have been improving ever since. Am following all suggestions but must say the liver extract is a terrible dose. I don’t mind that, though, because regardless of what it tasted like I would take it if you told me to do so. I knew that my resistance was terribly low, although I did not realize I have been too active, so shall slow down, after I am able to be out…” [She referred Mrs. [1281] for Physical Reading.]
