TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the relief and improvement.
2. EC: Yes, we have had the body before. Now, we find there are many conditions as have been existent in the body, as had here before, that have become accentuated in many ways. There are other existent conditions that have brought about the various changes in the system, and the vitality of the body is at a low ebb at present; not exactly as that as to be expectant of disintegration at present, yet that which goes to make up for the vitality and the vital forces in the system, that of a low resistance in the system, for the condition as is shown in the lungs, as with that trouble that is shown in the nasal and in the tissue of this portion of the body, gives exceeding trouble. The temperature as is produced in the body from the other condition as existent, through the whole trunk portion, and from that as is seen from the exterior forces, as give this condition at the present, all these added together go to make up the seriousness of the physical conditions at the present.
3. Then, to bring the better condition for the body at the present time, we would give those inhalations as would be found in this:
4. To 4 ounces pure grain alcohol, add:

   Eucalyptol...............20 minims,
Tincture of Sweet Gum
(in solution)........30 minims,
Canadian Balsam..........10 minims,
Rectified Oil of Turp.....5 minims,
Benzosol.................10 minims.

   Shake solution well together. Inhale both through the nostrils and into the lungs through the mouth, see? Not taken internally; inhaled only. That is, once or twice inhale through nostrils, for the inflammation as is seen in this portion of the body; into the lungs, that the respiratory system may be lightened from the burden as is seen from the conditions as existent there.
5. For the vitality in the whole system, we would add those stimulants as would be found in Spirits Frumenti, with egg and milk often given together, and keeping the whole intestinal tract open, see? that the eliminations through this portion of the body may be helped, that the building up of the system, through that of the rebuilding forces, may be helped. Be well that as soon as is possible that the higher altitude for the body, and of warmer climes, see?
6. Inhalations should be taken at least three or four times each day. Little or no medicinal properties taken internally, save for those conditions as are seen from the exterior forces, see? Internal for head, the lung, the throat, the larynx, and for the respiratory system, those properties as given. Do that.
7. We are through.
