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

… St., Time of Reading … Apt. 22-B, 11:35 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1101] - this we have had in forms before. Ready for questions.

2. (Q) There are two growths that appear to be warts on the ball of my left foot; what is the best way to dissolve or remove them? (A) Apply each evening a small amount of baking soda wet thoroughly with spirits of camphor, just sufficient to cover same - and bind on so as to keep over the night. This will cause some little sharp pain, and a little soreness for a few days, but will dissolve and prevent any irritation following same; for these are as but those eliminations in system being thrown out in improper directions.

As is seen also from pores that appear to be large, or blackheads, or spots appearing in portions of the skin. These will be aided by the use of Rochelle salts, taken in small quantities each morning. Also before the noon and evening meals take half to a quarter teaspoonful of pure olive oil.

Then, for these on face and neck - well that there be made local application first of a warm Turkish towel; not hot, not steaming, but warm Turkish towel, wet, and let it remain on for eight to ten minutes. Then rub thoroughly with pure Castile soap. Then put on COLD cloths for one to two minutes, until three or four are applied. Then PAT the skin very thoroughly with the hands, until the circulation in neck and face is thoroughly established again. Do not use creams or powders while this is being applied, that will fill up pores again. If there is the necessity for making the skin more smooth, then use magnesia - or cornstarch AND magnesia, which is the better for ANY skin. Or, when there is more preference to use the talc, or powder, use the pure talc with magnesia and balsam of tolu in same - or ZINC and tolu in same.

3. (Q) How often should these applications be made? (A) Every other day should be sufficient.

4. (Q) How long should they be kept up? (A) Until these conditions disappear. The Rochelle salts would be taken in small doses (not large) each morning for five mornings, then rest three days and take for five mornings again. These conditions in system should disappear.

As we find, the applications on the feet for the first three days will be rather severe - then these will gradually disappear, if these are applied each evening.

5. (Q) What would be considered a small dose of Rochelle salts for this body? (A) Quarter teaspoonful.

Do not eat too many sweets. No fats; unless vegetable fats.

6. (Q) Any other advice for this body? (A) Do this in the present.

7. We are through with this reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 10/21/35 She was present for her next Ck. Physical, 1101-4.

R2. 9/25/46 Florence Ohle’s letter; just after having read THERE IS A RIVER: “I have a wart on my left temple in the hair line and I have been putting Spirits of Camphor and Baking Soda on it and it is drying up. Thanks.”

R3. 12/9/58 Mrs. L. E. Bradbury (5280 Stacy St., West Palm Beach, Fla.) wrote: “The book on Edgar Cayce gave Spirits of Camphor for warts, moles, corns. My poor music teacher had a wart on her face. It was getting so big it pushed her glasses out. I told her about this. She used it and it’s gone. She sends her grateful thanks for saving her $50 she did not have.”

R4. 3/13/66 Letter from Charles T. Frey, M.D., Cedaredge, Colorado 81413: “I have tried the spirits of camphor and baking soda for plantar warts with some, but not invariable success. It is safe and simple, however, and can be done inexpensively at home.”

R5. 10/7/66 Mrs. Athlyn Kostamo wrote from 15153 Dasher, Allen Park, Mich: “In the book about your father by Mr. Sugrue, THERE IS A RIVER, a mixture for the relief of plantar’s warts is given. I work here in the Post Office, on my feet, and I suffered from plantar’s warts, which are on the bottom of the feet and very painful. There is no known cure medically and they are treated by surgery or acid or electric needle, all of which are painful. I had mine removed once by surgery but they came right back. I tried the mixture Edgar Cayce gave to this woman, and they became immediately less painful and disappeared completely in a short time. It was a miracle, of course, as is all your father’s work.”

R6. 7/24/67 Mrs. Wm. E. (Gwen J.) Burke, 211 E. Main St., Jonesboro, TN, 37659: “In THERE IS A RIVER I read one of Cayce’s remedies for warts on the feet. Slnce both my older boys had very painful warts on the soles of their feet at that time, we tried Cayce’s suggestion about a paste of soda and Spirits of Camphor. After only three applications the warts turned dark and dropped out, leaving a neat, clean hole which promptly healed.”

R7. 9/4/70 Mrs. Sophie Peters, 1521 Pennsylvania Ave., Windsor, Ill. 61957: “I used Mr. Cayce’s formula for warts with complete success. My daughter, nine years old, had two small warts forming on the bottom of foot. The doctor gave me a perscription to use, and when using it much of her skin came off but not the warts - also they had now spread to eight. I came across Mr. Cayce’s formula, spirits of camphor and baking soda, and applied as he said each evening (I then covered her foot with a thick stretchable sock to keep the paste intact) and in approximately two weeks, the warts literally dried-up and fell off. There is not a trace of them and none have returned.”

R8. 11/22/72 Roger T. Wilson, RR2-Box 209, California MD 20619, wrote: “Over 3 yrs. ago 1 plantar wart appeared on the sole of each foot. I tried the hydrochloric acid tr. (IRF p. 158). There was no cure, just an expansion of the warty area…the warts grew larger. I went to VB in ‘69…browsed through the rdgs… After returning home I tried the spirits of camphor and sodium bicarbonate. The warts were about an inch wide by now. I applied the wet soda combination over the warty area and covered ea. with a sq. bandage held along edges by adhesive tape. The warts had almost completely disappeared after 2 wks. of tr. It is strange that the IRF didn’t quote from the more numerous types of cures in the rdgs.”
