TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the further improvement of same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had before.
3. Now, we find there are many changes in the physical conditions of the body at the present from that as we have had here before. We find there are some specific conditions at present that need attention. These, as we see, are produced by the toxins as are absorbed in the system, through poor eliminations in the system, and the distresses that are caused are the effects as this poor elimination has produced on certain functioning organs; as that in liver and kidneys, and as is shown in capillary circulation.
4. To overcome these conditions at the present time, we would change the diet CONSIDERABLE from that as is normally taken, and use more whole wheat; and vegetable, with the preference to that that grows above the ground. No meats, but as much of the vegetable that is green as can be assimilated by the system.
5. Take this as a tonic for the system at the present time. Prepare same in this manner:
6. To 1/2 gallon of rain water, add 6 ounces of Wild Cherry Bark. Reduce by simmering to 1/2 the quantity. Strain. Then add 4 ounces of sugar dissolved in 4 ounces of water - and add to solution. Then reduce again to the original quantity, see? That is, reduce the 4 ounces of water in the solution, see? so this may mix well in the syrup form. Then add this:

   Syrup of Sarsaparilla..............1 ounce,
Fluid Extract Sassafras Root.....1/2 ounce,
Tincture of Valerian.............1/4 ounce,
Elixir Calisaya..................1/2 ounce,
Oil of Pepsin......................5 minims.

7. Then dissolve or cut 2 drams of Balsam of Tolu in 3 ounces of grain alcohol and add to solution. Shake solution well before dose is taken, which would be teaspoonful an hour before each meal, see, that is taken.
8. Do this, and keep the diet in the way and manner as given.
9. Take the exercises as will give the relaxation of the lower portion of body in evenings - that is, the lower limbs, upon retiring. Upon arising exercise the upper portion of the body, from the waist up; arms, head and neck, see? Rub spine with cold water of mornings, to increase the circulation along the whole length of the spine - COLD water, and rub until there is a glow along the whole length of the spine.
10. We will find, by the time the full quantity of the medicinal properties are taken, the body will be restored to its normal condition.
11. We are through for the present.
