TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have seen before, Mrs. [2710].
2. Now, one would find here rather an interesting study of pathological conditions, as are apparent, and as may become effective with the physical forces of this body; for the evidences of the conditions as cause disturbance are so evidenced by the most VITAL forces of the system, yet in the purely physical or material manner would scarcely be judged other than being affected by the effects of physical conditions existent in functioning organs; that is, the blood supply shows the evidences of conditions in such a manner as to indicate the specific conditions are are a result of other forces as cause or produce the effects in the organs themselves of the system. The indication would be that of the milder form of malarial germ, egged on or increased by a very cold or poor circulation through the upper hepatic circulation. The liver becoming inactive as a result of same, the gall duct being in a manner in accord with the condition, REFUSES - as it were - to receive its incentive through the functioning of the plexus as is ordinarily governing such functioning. Hence the body finds there is insufficient of the plasm in the blood stream to cope with that germicidal or germ condition as exists in the blood stream. The cause of this is apparent from that condition as just stated. In the 5th dorsal plexus there exists a subluxation of such nature as to prevent the spleenic forces in their activities, and also causing the cold or low form of resultant vibration through the system, as causes the functioning of the liver itself.
3. These, then, are the conditions PRINCIPALLY at the time to be dealt with, BUT those APPARENT conditions as are of a broader field or nature are a different story entirely. The involving of the system, as it is at present, reduces the VITALITY of the system, so that stored energy is EASILY used up, or the INABILITY of the system to need or use the vitims [vitamins] as are necessary to create an equilibrium in the system is not only weakening the organs' functioning above the diaphragm - throat, lungs, larynx, thyroids, and head, nasal, sensory organism, heart - but is ALSO so overtaxing the organs of digestion, as is related to assimilation especially, as to become, unless cared for, an alarming condition for this body.
4. Now, should one desire to PROVE themselves as regarding this - disregard just what has been given and watch the results by the time the body is thirty-four to five or six years old!
5. To meet the needs, then, of the conditions at present, do THIS:
6. First, keep the body at REST as much as possible, and give at least THREE capsules with THIS in each as a dose:

   Podophyllum...................1/2 grain,
Leptandrin......................1 grain,
Sanguinaria...................1/2 grain,
Camphor Gum...................1/4 grain.

   This should be given preferably of evening, and the next or following morning, following each of these doses of the three, take a small quantity of such a reactive agent as Sal-Heptica, or any effervescent phosphates that will act on the excretory functionings of the liver.
7. Massaging during the day, gently, the cerebrospinal system, as to remove the strain on the head, the throat, the nasal cavities.
8. Also we would, then, as soon as the body is some bettered - in five to six days - go about to have those corrections made as exist in the cerebrospinal system, THROUGHOUT - and ESPECIALLY that in the region of the 4th, 5th and 6th DORSAL centers, STIMULATING - after such treatments - with those of the ultra-violet ray, ESPECIALLY over the lung and diaphragm area. Not too strong, not too long - but sufficient that the forces in the system may be REVITALIZED by the loosening of tissue in such a manner, by the rays of light AND heat, as to produce for the body better oxidization, or LOOSENING, so that oxygen will react differently in the system. This will also destroy those conditions that appear in blood stream. Do that.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) What is the cause of frequent colds and headaches?
    (A) These have just been described, as to the existent conditions in the system, wherein the pressure as is produced on the sphlenic [splenic?] nerves and the active forces to the gall BLADDER especially, or gall ducts - these prevent that being carried in the system that is able, through the assimilation of food values, to create the plasm necessary in the blood supply to cope with the germ when it enters the system - which is, as is known, as prevalent in the air as is oxygen, or nitrogen, or hydrogen.
11. (Q) What is the cause of the constant fatigue, weakness and drowsiness?
    (A) Self poisoning - it has just been indicated in that given!
12. (Q) What was the exact cause for the recent operation? Will said operation remedy the conditions? and what will be the result of same?
    (A) These, as we find, are rather secondary, and have not been for the causes as have produced troubles in the system. These, of course, will be aiding in a manner, but the corrections must first be made, that the system coordinates and cooperates in its nominal function.
13. We are through for the present.
