TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. Now, we find there are many abnormal conditions with this body, chief of these being - or that as is to be met at the present time, and the seat and the cause of the conditions as exist in the body - undue metabolism and katabolism of the system. Hence those conditions as arise in the changing of the various forces in the blood supply to the assimilating and rebuilding system. These produced by properties as were given in the system in the form of mercury, with other properties that afterwards, with that combination, destroyed this equilibrium in the system, and brought about this condition wherein that the calcium, and those properties as are to be used in various portions, become the predominating force through the vibration as is set through this varied condition of the assimilating, the eliminating, the rebuilding, and the equilibrium of that force as turns each of the units of the force in rebuilding to that use of the physical body.
3. To meet the needs of these conditions (for, as is seen, the evidence of these conditions is apparent in every joint and every central tissue [arthritis?] - that is, every centralized nerve center and every centralized joint where any of the serums or the various portions of the lymphatic circulation carry this lymph to the various portions of the body - then in the blood, in the nerve, and in the general system we find these various conditions exhibiting themselves), we would at the present time use those vibrations to the body of this character, that would be alternated in their application: That of the Radio-Active Applicator, carrying to the umbilicus, in the negative pole, those properties of that in the regular solution of Spirits of Camphor, see? The alternate use would be that carrying to the same portions of the system - save the anode from the positive would be attached to the ankle in the use of Camphor, to the wrist in the use of the 10% solution of iron, see? tincture of iron. These vibrations should be given at least two hours each evening. When these have been used for the system (these do not hinder using other properties that give ease, or do not hinder from using those of the dietetics as have been given for the rebuilding of blood with those of the stability to the system), after these have been used in this way and manner for twenty-eight (28) days, using the regular time each day, as given, then we would give instructions for the changes as will be necessary - for as to how the body responds to these is that as will be necessary for this body. Do that, then, for the present. We are through.
