Now, we find there are changes in the physical forces of the
body since we had this here. We find there are some
conditions that show improvement. There are some conditions
more exaggerated, that improvement should have shown in, but
those suggestions as given have never been carried out; that
especially as regarding the eyes, in the correction of the
assistance to the vision, in the change of the focal plane
for the lens for the eyes - see? Correcting this would
relieve the nerve strain as experienced by the body in the
whole nerve system. This conditions is also aggravated at
the present time by the congestion as is shown in the
digestive system, for with the strain as produced by
constipation in the hepatic circulation and the mesenteric
system, the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexus causes
strain to the sympathetic system. This in turn causes flow
of blood of unnecessary nature through the upper portion of
the body. With the drosses left in system through this
re-absorption, this produces the dullness to the whole nerve
system, and the tendency of the body to feel fagged out, when
over-exertion given does not tire the body as much as this,
and especially afterwards when the body feels like it should
be rested from sleep. This usually occurs of mornings, see?
while, when the body is on feet, moves about and get a free
reaction through the changed circulation in same, this wears
off a bit, as it were - yet the tired heaviness remains.
These conditions, then, are those necessary to be looked
after and corrected at the present time.
First we would have those corrections in the glasses. Then
we would correct that condition in the digestive system, that
we may not have any auto-intoxication and drosses from the
indigestion in the intestinal system and the lack of
eliminations in the normal way and manner. Using for this
those properties as would be found in this: We would prepare
this in this way and manner.
To one-half (1/2) gallon of water (rain water preferably)
we would add:
Plain Garden Sage....................6 ounces,
Ragweed..............................2 ounces,
Mandrake Root.......................15 grains,
Peruvian Bark......................1/2 ounce,
Calisaya Bark......................1/4 ounce,
Sassafras Root Bark................1/4 ounce.
Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to one-half (1/2) the
quantity. Then add while warm, and after being strained,
four (4) ounces pure grain alcohol, with two (2) drams Balsam
of Tulu cut in same. Adding to this three (3) minims Oil of
Peppermint. Then add to the other solution.
Shake well to-gether before each dose is taken, and take
half a teaspoonful four (4) times each day, until this begins
to assimilate and act well with the system. This is as an
emit and does not produce in the system any inclination that
is necessary for cathartics to be taken, for this is as an
eliminant, rather than as cathartic and that nature as to
produce too much of that in the system as to irritate the
mucus lining of any portions of the system. This is as an
ASSIMILATOR, and the activities of the body in its exercises,
as have been given - and taken in part for a time, then left
off - if these are kept up normally, will act with the body
to rebuild.
When these medicinal properties have acted well with system,
then REDUCE the dose to two (2) doses each day, see?
Beginning with before each meal and at bedtime.
Do that, and we will bring the better conditions for this
body, [
2646].
(Q) What change in the glasses should be made?
(A) Better if these were dropped off and broken, and make
new glasses. If they will make corrections properly, fit
the glasses without giving that to the body that will STRAIN
the eyes, see? but that which will bring the focal plane to
a better condition, see?
(Q) Who should the body go to, to have these corrected
properly?
(A) Any good optometrist.
We are through with this reading.
