1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Mrs. [327] - this we have had before.

2. (Q) What is cause and relief for pains in right knee? (A) As we find, this is produced by a slowed circulation, caused by the cold hepatic circulation and the disturbances in the kidney area, or the incoordination between the kidney and liver in their proper relations one to another; so that the toxic forces of the system, as are left in the system through improper eliminations, cause distresses in portions of the system where STRAIN of some nature, as in this, has made a WEAKENED condition in that portion of the body. The system attempting to adjust itself, being unable to supply that through a slowed and a poor circulation, as is necessary to create normalcy in resuscitation, brings about pains as in this body, which may be termed either a FORM of rheumatism, or neuritis, though not EITHER in their proper meaning - but rather that [which] that may be termed a COMBINATION of same.

Will [If there will be] there be applied - and let the body rest - this may be given in evenings when the body IS to rest - these of the Epsom Salts packs across the kidney area, this will RELIEVE the pressure on same; and make a tea of watermelon seed - not too strong, but as about this proportion: Take about thirty kernels or seed, see - SPLIT same, see - cut same with the knife, as split - see - over the edge. Steep in one quart of water as in a teapot, not boiling, see - for thirty to forty minutes. Strain off. The dose of this would be quarter to a third of a glassful once or twice a day.

We would also take the OIL enemas, that the eliminations may be IMPROVED through the colon, especially. The enema would be of Usoline or the Russian White Oil, about a pint - see ? This will aid in making a better association of the activities between the liver and the kidneys themselves. Be mindful that the diet is not heavy, or that that [which] is hard to digest. Rather would this be an outline for a diet for the body in the present:

Mornings - there may be taken some dry toast, with a little Ovaltine or a dry cereal or raw drink, see?

Noons - we would drink a Coca Cola, Orangeade, Lemonade, or the like, see, with some little wafer - not sweetened too much.

Evenings - we may take those of soups, with well cooked vegetables, not too much acids, but keeping an even balance; for remember, we are producing some counter-irritations with the tea as would be taken as medicine for the kidneys themselves.

The applications of the salts we would make of evenings.

Of mornings we would rub the body along the spine thoroughly with cold rubs. The colder the better, from the base of the head to the end of the spine. If the cloths or towels used as rubs are wrung out of ICE water, all the better.

We would also find that when the pains are SEVERE, it would be well that a rubber stocking be worn, that the veins and the tendency of the veins to become full from a poor circulation [varicose veins] [?], would be helpful. Of evenings we would rub this down (that is, with the stocking taken off), when the packs are being given, rubbing same TOWARDS the body - that is, the veins, see, and the muscular forces of the limbs, with those of equal parts of olive oil, tincture of myrrh, and oil of cedar. Heat the oil, adding the tincture of myrrh, then adding the oil of cedar. Shake same together when it is massaged or rubbed along those portions of the body.

3. (Q) Why do both ears itch inside, around the drum? What is cure for same? (A) Poor circulation. Increasing the circulation by these cold rubs, we will have this eliminated, and it will make for soon a form of catarrh - or a form of eczema, unless the circulation IS - because it is straightened out; for it must become infectious within itself.

4. (Q) What may be done for the palpation of heart? (A) Do as we have given!

5. That is all the questions for this body.

6. We are through with this reading.
