Time of Reading 4:15 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ohio. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

2. Now, we find there are many abnormal conditions with this body. Many of these may be changed or corrected by following closely, carefully, prayerfully, those conditions as will bring about for the physical forces of the body that which will bring to the rebuilding forces that as is necessary for the successful coordinating of the organs and functionings thereof of this body.

3. Through many various centers in the nerve system, and in the joints and ends of muscular tissue, there is the incentive for contraction, through the effect of poisons as have been accumulating in the system until the eliminations became so over-balanced that many of the centers became involved to the extent as to produce irritation. Then the reaction through same to nerve plexus brought on the condition of inertia of the muscular reaction.

4. In the blood supply, much of the condition existed in the first. Then through exposure, as brought congestion and increase in the number of destructive forces through congestion, then the poor elimination, and the action became such that the digestive system failed to act. Then the condition began by the auto-intoxication of the system from poisons as were not eliminated through the respiratory or through ANY of the regular eliminating channels. Hence the complications as have arisen from time to time.

5. To meet the needs at the present time, these three applications should be used in a consistent manner:

6. First prepare as this: To 1 gallon of rain water, add 8 ounces of Wild Cherry Bark. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to 1 quart. Strain. Then add the 4 ounces of sugar - reducing again by slow boiling to 1 pint. Then add:

Compound Syrup of Sarsaparilla…2 ounces, Elixir Calisaya…1/2 ounce, Tincture of Stillingia…1/4 ounce, Tincture of Burdock Root…1/2 ounce, Tincture of Yellow Dock Root…1/4 ounce, Podophyllin, stirred in…2 grains, Tincture Capsici…2 minims.

7. Then add 2 ounces pure grain alcohol, with 1 dram Balsam Tolu cut in it. The dose would be half teaspoonful every 4 hours, and this would not interfere with resting, see? for when the body is asleep at the time do not arouse it, but change the time to as soon as arises, see?

8. Apply each evening to the whole cerebro-spinal system, from head to foot (of spine, see?) - that is, 1st cervical to the end of the coccyx those of mud - clay mud, which may be obtained in the outskirts of the city here [Newark, Ohio?], where clays are compiled or bound together, see, in brick form. Use this mixed with oil and water, see? That is, mix the clay, then apply sweet oil with same after mixing. Apply to the body. Let this remain for three to four hours. Cleanse off and rub the spine briskly after cleansing with equal parts of Olive Oil and Tincture of Myrrh, see? heating the oil and pouring Myrrh in same, see?

9. When this has been done, and the body ready for rest, apply those vibrations for equalization of circulation and elimination, those vibrations from the plain Radio-Active Appliance, for at least two hours, see? giving the positive to the ankle and alternating same to wrist, see? That is, making first attachment one day to wrist, the next to the ankle, see?

10. Use enemas to keep elimination in the system properly, see? which will be necessary when the medicinal properties are first begun.

11. Let the diet be those that add building forces to system without giving too much strain on digestion. Rather the juices or broths from meat, than the meat itself. Do not use any pork or hog meat in any form. Rather vegetables, nuts, fruits. Do this in a consistent, persistent, manner. We will bring results and better conditions for this body.

12. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 11/15/26 Wife returned our Form C giving his age as 64 and his nationality as “Good citizen,” saying:

“I think his trouble is from his liver. He has at present hardening of the arteries, so all his doctors have told him he is losing the use of his system all over. His limbs and tongue are affected the most; cannot walk a step without assistance. Thank you for your reading.”

R2. 1/10/27 Wife wrote: “I have followed all directions as you requested and my husband says he can not see any improvement at all, does not walk or talk as well as he did before he had the reading. I am very sorry to write this.”

R3. 1/17/27 EC wrote asking if she was sure she had followed the entire treatment, including the Radio-Active Appliance [which she did not order from Mr. Thos. B. Brown in Dayton, O., who was then making the Appliance], the medicine, mud pack and massage, and diet.

“If he does not improve soon, by the continued following of the tr., please let us know, for it is our desire to be of help, if possible. However, we cannot bring help to those who do not cooperate with us in following the suggestions given.”

R4. We did not hear from them again.
