1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with further suggestions for the improvement of same.

2. EC: Now, we find the physical conditions in the body much changed from that as when we had this here before. There have arisen other conditions that are produced in part by outside influences, or by the body getting cold, damp, exposure, when there were those properties in system that opened the eliminating centers in capillary system. Hence the undue reaction in system through glands in system, and, with the increased amount of lymph as was being created in system by properties taken internally, this brought about congestion and inflammation to various portions of the system, and irritation, especially, to the ductless glands in the system, especially those in the thyroid region, affecting directly the portions of throat along the Eustachian tubes and also those in and about the capsule of the kidneys proper. Hence the depressions or pains, and the over amount of eliminations as carried on in these portions of the system. The excess, as is seen, of lymph, of irritation in throat, finds same as mucus and as inflammation in the tonsil region, and in the thorax. In the kidneys - irritation, over excitement to the excretions and the over amount of urine, and the inflammation along the right side of the body, especially following the elimination canal, and the nerves of the right side in the mesenteric system.

3. The diet, as we see, not exactly in keeping with these conditions, produces some irritation, and tendency to constipation. This brought irritation again to that irritated portion (in anus) where the system suffers from inactivity, in inside work, with too much strain by outside, and in the air, with the taking on of the congestion through cold, brings to these portions of the body also.

4. Then, for the assistance of the body at the present, we would leave off, for the time being, those pellets as have been taken for the condition in the duodenum and pancrean portion of body. Add more of that of the ambrosia weed, with the preparation prepared as has been used before; adding also more of that as is used in the Clary water, or that in the combination of the first properties as were given for the system to reduce the amount of sugar in system, and to bring about the better digestion for the system and bringing more eliminations in their proper channels [See 953-1]. After the body has brought about a better stabilized condition, in this way and manner, the pellets may be resumed or taken on again, but not in such quantities or so often as has been heretofore. This, as we see, will bring about better conditions for the body.

5. Also the manipulation in the dorsal (8th, 9th, 10th), and in the cervical, will stimulate the normal flow of blood and the nerve energy, in both cerebro-spinal and sympathetic system, through the glands as have become overtaxed at the present time. Do that, see?

6. (Q) What should the diet be at the present time? (A) Along those lines as have been outlined for the body. The body is a good dietician itself, and should follow along those lines as have been given. No stimulus to the system, in the way and manner of coffee or tea with sugar in same. No meats that are heavy of digestion. Fish or small quantities of fowl. Much of the green vegetable nature, especially spinach or greens, see?

Now, as to those conditions as regarding the operations on the lands of this body, in Bosque County, Texas [See [4905] series], while this has brought much worry to the body from time to time, we find that, with the proper handling of the casing in the operation, this will soon prove a source of PLEASURE, rather than of worry; for (in the setting of this, the hole must be cleaned to at least the upper portion of the obstruction, that this is to assist the hindrance of obstruction getting in way and prevent the cavings from the soft strata above) this, we find, should be in preparation, so that the casing may be set with expedience, and that, in a very short time after same, this may be made the producing operation, as has been given.

From the St. Louis and St. Paul connection, as well as the eastern connections, will come the contributions to the operations sufficient to take care of the needs of the financial end, until the assurance of the correct operations are in order, for this will be made the successful operation in this holding.
