This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 8th day of July, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [257], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

2. As we find, the acute condition arises from some congestion and cold, which produces through the muscular forces of the kidneys and the small of the back a congestion.

3. We would take Fletcher’s Castoria in small doses; not too much, but make at least five, six, seven doses of a small bottle of Castoria.

4. After same have a Turkish bath and massage. These as we find will not only cleanse the system but make for much improvement throughout the whole of the congestions that have arisen from a little indiscretion, more by being in drafts than otherwise.

5. These as we find should bring a much nearer to normal condition of the body.

6. Beware of too heavy meals or too rich foods during the next two to three days.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) Please advise procedure on Radio Cabinets for immediate business. (A) As we find, there may STILL be the association made with the American, if there will be not so much the insistence but the presenting of the possibilities, the probabilities, and what have been the needs. This offers the BEST channels through which there may be the permanent connections, until there are the activities in other directions.

Or if this does not work in with the plans of those that formulate the policies, then turn to the association and connections where there have been some negotiations begun - in the Pennsylvania associations and connections.

These as we find are the better conditions for the present.

9. (Q) Any other advice for the body at this time? (A) Take the properties as indicated, and be mindful of the diet as given.

10. We are through for the present.
