TEXT

1. EC: Now we find there are abnormal conditions in this body. These arise from pathological, biological and psychological conditions in this body. Much has been, and is, from lack of nutriment to the body, both in the food values and in the mental, and the body has reacted to these conditions.
2. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, [3960], we are speaking of. First:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find deficient in its ability to supply the resistive forces in the body for quick recuperation. Hence the form of anemia that exists and the condition as shown in the capillary circulation.
4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, this we find has become so lax in many centers that the functioning of the organs in portions of the body are beyond the control of the body at times, such as we have in the kidneys, in the organs of the lower digestive tract, and in the depressions as come of the action of air in lungs.
5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, the body we find reacts to the conditions in the system, yet little organic condition, save in the functioning of the organs themselves.
6. To bring then the best to this body, and to relieve the strain on the system, we would give these properties in the system.
7. To one gallon of rain water, add:

   Sarsaparilla Root....2 ounces,
Wild Cherry Bark.....2 ounces,
Yellow Dock Root.....2 ounces,
Calisaya Bark........2 ounces,
Elder Flower.........4 ounces.

8. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm and add 4 ounces of grain alcohol, with 3 drams Balsam of Tolu cut in it. The dose would be 2 teaspoonsful 3 times each day, and taken before meals, and EAT THE MEALS. Let the food value in the diet be much of the proteins, and let the system have the rest after each meal necessary for digestion to take place before too much exercise. Then sufficient of exercise that the body finds the response in system of the vibrations as set by medicinal properties throughout the body.
9. When the first quantity has been taken, wholly, then use the deep manipulation over the whole portion of the body, along the sciatic nerve to the central portion and the whole cerebro-spinal system to the head. That is, let most of the vibration and massage follow the branches of the cerebro-spinal nerve system.
10. Then after this has been taken for at least twelve treatments, then take the second quantity of medicinal properties.
11. We will find the body near to its normal condition, unless congestion from another form or another is allowed to come in the system.
12. Do that.
