TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. Now we find in this body there are may abnormal conditions. There are some specific conditions producing this condition that brings many of the conditions that are abnormal. The body, properly treated, may be brought to a normal condition and have many years of usefulness for self and others. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body.
3. First: IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY.
4. We find the blood not only carrying bacilli that show that destruction goes on in the organs through which it passes, but also that of the pus forming variety that gives much taxation to many of the organs, and this especially is one of the causes of the temperature in the body. Also the blood is lacking in that rebuilding force that gives the strength and vitality necessary to combat with this condition. Hence, the strength, both through nerve, muscular and reserve energy, has been called upon to meet the needs of this condition through the system. This will and can be removed when the proper conditions are given, and the reserve builded to meet the needs of this physical and soul and spirit force. In the blood cell that carries this condition, we find the organs through which the clarification enter in gaining of oxygen or carbon for the system and that organ where destruction comes for used cellular force suffer from the presence of this bacilli.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find the body shows the condition that the nerve energy has been called upon to meet the needs of the condition in the system. Hence, all of the centers where the control is given for muscular reaction the body has become weak and languid for lack of vitality to give the resistance, even in the nerve center, to meet the needs of the body physically. Yet, the system in its co-ordination is very good for the body's mental and soul forces are well set in this entity. In the sympathetic system the same condition exists, save that the hope that is set within the mind and soul and spirit force of the entity is above the normal. MEET THOSE NEEDS. In the sensory organism we find the weakest of centers give much distress at times to the organs, though not organically are these affected.
6. IN THE ORGANS OF THE BODY, we find these conditions: First, in the brain forces the body is very good, with its developing, and beyond the normal in its spirit and soul forces of the entity.
7. In the throat and larynx and bronchials, much of the condition is shown how that the circulation through these organs, and through the thyroids, that ductless force that supply the nutriment in the assimilation of forces as is used for the sensory organism, gives distress to the body, and the tissue, even at times, show how the walls of these portions give down under the strain of the condition in the system.
8. In the lungs proper, we find the cell force here show how the languid effect is given through this organ, and how the cells and air chambers, that are necessary, are broken in portions that allow the circulation to become flooded with the bacilli as is carried from this, and oxidization, through ozone, in the system does not take place as it should.
9. The digestive tract weak from the natural forces of the body, and incapable of giving at all times the best elements for the system, for the medicine chest of the body has become so involved as to cause the lack of production of those gastric juices necessary to produce digestion in the proper manner. Hence, the character of foods necessary, as the spleen itself shows the engorged condition necessary to meet the needs of red blood cells destroyed in the system.
10. The liver plethoric in its action and functioning, hence again the condition of blood and of temperature as created from these two conditions in the system. The rest as is imposed at times upon the system is not always good for does not give the action necessary to meet the needs of the mental and sympathetic forces of the body, and must through this, that is action, create resistance to assist in meeting the needs of this body.
11. Hepatic circulation high. Excess of excretory functioning through the kidneys. Hence the high state of the condition of the functioning through this organ. The languidness of the whole system produced from this condition, as we have shown in blood, and the effect as produced upon the organs of the body. The taxation tot he circulation in stimulation of heart forces would be better met through other forces than that that has been applied, for we break the resistance rather than give assistance to the physical needs of the body.
12. We will find it necessary to be persistent and to be patient with the condition to meet the needs necessary to render the assistance that should be given for this body. First, we would give as this:
13. A wooden container should be procured, charred on inside. In this put one half gallon pure apple brandy. Let the container be twice the size necessary to hold this quantity.
14. This will be placed where the evaporation will take place faster than ordinary. That is, heated some you see. This shall be corked tight save when the gas as accumulates from this is inhaled into the lungs through the mouth. So we get the effect of this in the throat and bronchials and lungs. Breath deep into the lungs. Not more than three inhalations to begin with, but increase to at least five after two to five days.
15. This should be done at least twice each day. Take until the body feels the effect, even to the finger tips and toes, for it will produce an intoxication to the whole system. Take into the body this. This should be placed in capsules, and this is one dose:

    Eucalyptol..................1 minim,
Rectified Oil of Turp.......1 minim,
Heroin...................1/60 grain,
Creosote..................1/2 minim.

16. Only one dose of this would be taken every third day. Will be necessary to prepare this only when ready to take, as it will disintegrate otherwise.
17. Let the diet be those of whole wheat, only crushed, and made into the form necessary. That is; cooked, but not too well done. Junket, arrow root, should be as the change from this.
18. Keep the body where plenty of fresh air for the whole system.
19. In the evening, when the body takes its rest, let the body be up as much as possible, not in excess of its strength, but sufficient to gain strength. The system, for the elimination, had better use injection rather than that which strains the upper portions of the body. Oils, or egg and oils, may both be used. Also this would be found would give strength to the body. Do this at present. Do this, as we have given for this body, and we will find we will bring this body, [4114], to the normal forces, and to the developing for the better in itself upon this earth plane.
20. Do that. We have finished with this reading.
