Time of Reading 3:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Pa. (Ck. Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. Some improvements are seen in the general physical forces of the body, and the changes or alterations in that to be accomplished in the body should be brought about. While the conditions under the present surroundings are being well taken care of from many viewpoints, would these changes as may be suggested be carried out then the same surroundings would be well - but the more ideal, and the better for the body itself, would be to have one in attendance in the capacity of the teacher or the instructor, and close to the mother or one upon whom the body can be more dependent; for in such conditions as are to be wrought, where coordinations are to be brought about, that parental love is necessary - for the mind is the builder, whether in the material, the social, mental or spiritual.

2. In the changes now, we would give - as an aid to the nervous forces of the body - those properties of the Mayblossom Bitters - teaspoonful at least twice each day.

3. We would be mindful also of the diet. Keep those that are nerve and muscle building, not so that the body through its glands becomes over abundant in growth physically - but a well balanced diet.

4. In the specific centers where the repressions to the body have existed, these we find in the LUMBAR plexus - also in the upper dorsal and throughout the cervical regions. These, with osteopathic manipulations AND adjustments - at least twice to three times each week - will make for the better coordination in the speech, in the use of the body in its whole activity, and will gradually build for a BETTERED condition throughout the whole of the body.

5. We would do this now, for the next thirty to sixty days. We should see the DECIDED changes in at least eighteen to twenty-eight days. Ready for questions.

6. (Q) State definitely where treatment could be given most successfully. (A) As has been outlined, if these changes may be accomplished under the present surroundings - well there. The BETTER will be closer to, under the observation and care of, one that gives more of the maternal love.

7. (Q) Are his teeth alright? What makes his gums red and swollen at times? (A) The poor circulation as goes through this portion of the body. These, with the changes as outlined, will be aided - and local applications of salt would be well, even if the gums are only massaged occasionally with same, see? or a saline solution.

8. (Q) How long before beginning to show marked improvement, following these treatments, and he begins to talk? (A) This hasn’t changed from that we have just given! Eighteen to twenty-eight days will show marked improvement.

9. (Q) When can he be taught to dress himself? (A) When there is more coordination through the mental forces from relief of the pressures in lumbar and sacral regions, especially.

Do this as we have outlined. We are through with this reading.
