TEXT

1. EC: Now, we find there are abnormal conditions in this body, and these may be corrected, with the correct application of those in the system that will correct the specific conditions that produce, and have produced those conditions that cause distress to the system. We have many portions of the body involved, yet specific conditions that must be corrected, that the system may receive correct vibrations, for we find in times back there has happened to this body that which has so produced and caused tissue to become entangled in portions of the system as to give the improper connection through the functioning of some centers.
2. Now, these are conditions as we find in this body, [4206], we are speaking of, present in this room.
3. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, while the quality is very good (though carrying at times some of those depressing factors that work on portions of the assimilating elements), the quantity is lower than normal, and hence the pressure is below, and a subnormal force through the supply.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find conditions that have become aggravated by centers and ganglia attempting to carry or force those properties in the circulation to carry out their functioning to the assistance of the system; such conditions as we find in the region of the ninth dorsal vertebra, where the ganglia and the centers that connect between the hypogastric and pneumogastric center has received this shock. This, then, causes distress through all the nerve system, and to the sensory organism, and in all portions of those organs that have to do with the eliminating of extra amount of used tissue in system, as we have in eyes, in lungs, in the digestive tract, in the functioning of kidneys improperly. Each attacked or functioning abnormal from the same cause, but affected differently, and the effect produced is apparently of specific nature.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS THEMSELVES as this:
7. In brain supply very good. One well given to discrimination. One that with the elements of the spirit and soul forces will do well to develop along the spiritual line of physical development.
8. In the functioning of the organs of the sensory system, we find these, especially eyes, become involved from that condition as is shown in the second cervical. This is a reflex condition from the seventh and ninth dorsals, for elimination being improperly carried in the system leaves that inflammation as is caused to the retinae, itself, proper. In other portions of sensory system, these become involved spasmodically, and not in the regular order as the pressure is varied.
9. IN LUNGS, LARYNX, THROAT, in lungs, we find only the effect of the blood supply on system, and lung chamber or cell becoming opened. Hence, susceptibility to congestion, though not organic condition.
10. Heart action normal for condition of blood supply, though [not] subnormal in many respects, though not organically so.
11. Digestive tract, this we find, with the condition in the pneumogastric, becomes affected at times. Hence the condition through the pancreas, liver and upper portion of the intestinal tract, with high hepatics show subnormal in action in liver and kidneys. Kidneys become then surcharged, and their functioning below or abnormal. The lower intestinal tract not sufficient secretions, as the subnormal or abnormal hepatic circulation does not give sufficient nutriment to function properly.
12. Then to bring the normal forces to this system, would be to take in the system those properties that will create the incentive for the secretive and excretive system to function normally, and with the adjustments where adhesions have shown across the diaphragm, and with the vibrations necessary to create the influence of nerve and circulation to the afflicted portions of the sensory and other portions of nerve system.
13. Take then in the system, this: To one gallon of rain water, add:

    Yellow Dock Root..............2 ounces,
Burdock Root..................2 ounces,
Black Root....................2 ounces,
Yellow Root...................2 ounces,
Elder Flower..................2 ounces.

14. Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain. While warm, add two drams Balsam of Tolu, with four ounces of grain alcohol. Cut this in it.
15. The dose will be teaspoonful four times each day, before meals. The adjustments osteopathically through the abdomen, and the exercise of the abdomen and of those centers in the region of ninth dorsal, seventh dorsal and second cervical. Take each evening the vibrations from the violet ray over the eyes, over the first, second and third dorsal, and the whole region of the cervical across shoulders, across abdomen, for three to five minutes.
16. Do that, and we will find within six to eight weeks the body will be its normal forces.
