1. EC: Yes, we have the body [340] - this we have had before. Now, the conditions as have existed and as exist with this body are NOT satisfactory at all. The reaction from those of the infectious effects in portions of the system from congestion, or the flu bug, has left the conditions in a very unsatisfactory condition. Hence this continued, or overtaxation of the sympathetics in the bronchials and the larynx, are assuming conditions where there should be some definite changes brought about for the body; as well as has the condition affected the organs of the system as refer to the reproduction in the system, and of the organs as go to make up the ASSIMILATING forces of the system. Hence the inability of the body to gain vitality, or to regain and retain the strength or the replenishing of the strength for the system. Not that the body is an invalid, but going fast toward those conditions were [if] the conditions [were] allowed to remain.

2. The greater assistance for the body at present would be the manipulations of the cerebro-spinal centers as have to do with eliminations from the system, see? that is, through the 8th, 9th and 10th dorsal, and through the upper cervicals - applying every other day the manipulation, and then the ultra Violet rays.

3. An inhalant - that as has been outlined - would be well to keep for the system. [See 340-5.]

4. The body needs that of those properties, as in diet, that will create more of the lactic or alkaline conditions in system. Do that. Ready for questions.

5. (Q) What will prevent the body having so many colds? (A) Remove the condition so that the system functions from the CENTRAL system and not congestion coming back! Be well were the body removed from these climatic conditions.

6. (Q) What can I do to prevent cough and open up nasal passages? (A) These as outlined. We are through for the present.
