1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [2369], present in this room, together with the conditions of her physical, mental and spiritual bodies; her work, home, future welfare - both material and social; her debts and financial problems. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [2369], present in this room. Ready for questions.

3. (Q) What is cause and cure for the burning pain and lumps in my left shoulder and breast? (A) As we find, this arises from injuries and from pressures produced by same. We find that this SHOULD be strapped tightly. Then the areas roundabout should be massaged gently each evening with properties that would remove any inflammation; such as an equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Spirits of Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor. After about a week to ten days remove the binding or strapping, massage thoroughly and let it rest for two to three days, and then strap again.

4. (Q) What should I do to relieve the conditions in my spine, especially at the base of the brain? (A) Mechanical (osteopathic) adjustments.

5. (Q) What is the cause and relief for the condition of my stomach, especially in regard to the nausea and blood discharge? (A) This as we find is superacidity, and those tendencies for lacerations in the stomach itself - in the cardiac portion as well as in parts of the lower duodenum or pylorus portion.

We would keep the diets that are the more easily assimilated; also taking those properties that tend to create more normal lacteal balances in the stomach itself - that is: Use ALCAROID as an assistant in digesting; and this should be taken at least twice each day, or when the meals are taken, - about half a teaspoonful dissolved first in a small quantity of water, then the glass filled, and then another glass of water taken afterwards.

Also about twice a week we would take a teaspoonful of Milk of Bismuth and ten drops of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin stirred together in a full glass of water.

6. (Q) What is cause and cure for conditions in my right ear and chest? (A) These are a part of the reflex conditions from those in the shoulder and structural portion of the body. With the corrections of these, then the helpful conditions will come here also.

7. (Q) Please advise me and my doctor (Dr. Curtis Hudgins) in regard to treating my ribs that have a tendency to slip out of place? (A) As indicated, strap ‘em! Then after a week to ten days, release keeping up the massage; and then strap again.

8. (Q) What can I do to bring about a more harmonious condition in my home? (A) Create the harmonious condition within self! Reflect same in the relationships to others, - this we find would bring the better and the more harmonious conditions in the home.

9. (Q) How can I best help my mother? (A) These, of course, become questions and problems, because of individualities; but living and being that which is the ideal within the self is the best help one may give another. For you cannot live the life for others, nor do their thinking for them!

10. (Q) Should I remain at the place I am now living, …, or move? (A) If practical, we would remain.

11. (Q) If necessary to move, in what part of the city would it be best for me to go? (A) That must be chosen by self.

12. (Q) What should be my life’s work? (A) This may be more apparent from the combinations of the life’s activities, than from a physical approach; but as we find, that in which there is a SEMBLANCE or direct activity in SUPPLYING helpful influences in the lives or associations of others. Then, either as a teacher or as a minister to those individuals less fortunate than self, or in making for entertainments for others, or as an inn keeper or the like.

13. (Q) How may I best be able to meet my obligations financially? (A) These must be applied first spiritually, mentally, and the right thinking, if there will be brought better conditions. These must be within self and not from others.

14. (Q) Please give me some spiritual advice? (A) KNOW thy ideal; not what others should do for you, but what you may do for others, - physically, mentally, spiritually.

Then, study to show self approved unto that ideal; never condemning others. For, the law is, that if ye would not be condemned, condemn not!

15. (Q) Please give me an affirmation. (A) MAY MY GOING IN, MY COMING OUT, BE WHOLLY ACCEPTABLE IN THY SIGHT, MY LORD, MY REDEEMER! NOT MY WILL BUT THINE BE DONE IN AND THROUGH ME. AND MAY I SO LIVE MY OWN LIFE THAT OTHERS MAY BE INFLUENCED TO GLORIFY THEE.

16. We are through for the present.
