  2. Ready for questions.

  3. (Q) Is the diet prescribed by Dr. Black advisable for the body; eliminating meat, fish, eggs, jello and meat broth? (A) This is very well if it is not made so as to become dictatorial to the body, see? Diets of such natures, or to become of such activities are very well where there are specific or special conditions to be met or overcome. Yet these may become of such a nature as to work rather a hardship upon the mental and physical forces of the body. They are such as to - not just be taken occasionally, but used AS a means FOR an end. In this manner or attitude, they are very well. Do not let them “ride” the body but the body use them! Thus such a diet would be very well.

  4. (Q) Is it well for the body at each meal to take two #26 and two #71 tablets as directed by Dr. Black? (A) This will depend upon the physical activities, as well as the diets for the body. In a general sense, yes - these are very well.

  5. (Q) Is the daily drink of BRAN WATER accomplishing good for the body? (A) This is very well, provided the body does not take this - the bran water - when there is great irritation in the MENTAL forces! for this tends to IRRITATE the alimentary canal. And when great quantities of poisons are thrown off, when there is a strain on the digestive forces owing to a high mental state or anxiety, it would be too much.

  6. (Q) Have you any suggestions as to diet or improvement at this time? (A) If the constructive attitudes are kept, and the greater and greater dependence is upon the voice within for the direction in physical as well as in mental and material ways and activities, then greater and greater may be the efficiency of the body physically and mentally.

  7. We are through with this Reading.
