TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
2. EC: Now, we find the greater distress and the abnormal conditions in this body are produced from the digestive system, and the cause, a pre-disposition from conditions before the body was born.
3. While the condition in blood supply is the effect of this digestion, these conditions may be corrected.
4. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body.
5. The body we find developing.
6. The blood supply in system taxed, over-charged by the condition in the digestive system, and the stomach proper, as well as intestines, produce this condition; from improper diet, as from pre-disposition.
7. The nerve systems are reflexes of the condition.
8. The functioning organs show the effect, as does the general condition in the system.
9. Then to bring the normal conditions for this body at the present time, we would begin with this, and in this manner:
10. First, we would give no milk for the body; that is, the eatable milk, save that as was first heated. Using the gruels, strained oatmeal, cream of wheat, or any cereal, well prepared, well cooked before being given.
11. These should be the diet for the body, with well cooked apples, that are roasted before an open fire. Very little sugars in any of the food given, save beet sugar.
12. The medicinal properties, begin first with very small doses of Castoria, three to six drops, but given every hour for at least twelve hours.
13. After this, begin with a strong tea made from Yellow Saffron, and give then very small doses of coco-quinine, one grain each day.
14. Bathing the body of with the solution of Boracic Acid over abrasions that show on body.
15. Follow this closely. We will find we will relieve the condition.
16. The Saffron Tea should be given teaspoonful every three to four hours, when awake.
17. Do that, we will bring the better conditions and relieve this body, [2216].
18. (Q) How much quinine should be given this body?
    (A) One grain every day, until at least six doses have been taken.
