TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find there are some abnormal conditions in this body. These may be corrected with the developing stage of the body. These abnormal conditions have to do with the elimination in the organs of the hepatic circulation and with the functioning of some of the organs of digestion, and the effect this produces in the system, as we shall see.
2. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, [4303], we are speaking of, better known as Sister Baby. In the blood supply we find with the condition in the hepatics, especially those of the emunctory forces in the liver, they allow the distress of conditions to be shown in the blood supply, hence the impoverished condition produced by the bacteria as carried there, which is that of the streptococcus variety. This gives to the centers in the blood supply to the organs in the system the strain on the organs at times. Especially do we find this in those of the upper brachial center, hence the condition brought to the organs of the sensory system and shows especially in the developing condition in the eyes at present. The burning sensation as produced the lack of focal vision in some instances. The effect over the whole system in these centers produced a weak, languid feeling over the whole body, hence the vitality soon becomes submerged by this condition.
3. In the nerve forces we find only reflexes to the body from the condition produced either from blood supply indirectly or from condition of organs affected directly.
4. In the functioning of organs we find as these: In the brain forces, developing good. In the organs of the sensory system, reflexes as is shown through strained centers by improper distribution of used forces through circulation as governed by nerve and muscular tissue toward the organs direct. In the throat, larynx and lungs, very good, save as the reflex nerve forces give strain or tension upon these organs directly, when congestion is produced either by heat, intense, or cold, hence the choky feeling to the throat when the body exercises unduly. In the digestive tract we find in the duodenum and pyloric end of stomach the reflex of the condition produced in the pancrean forces, hence the reaction to the stomach itself producing through the lax condition of the pneumogastric forces the relaxing of cardiac forces of the stomach, hence with an over-loaded stomach we find the body suffers as of fullness and inclined to belch or throw off the gases from the stomach proper. The distress then being produced in the pancreas and the liver in the functioning through the organs themselves in producing correct digestion, giving then the poisons back to the system, producing the condition in the blood supply by the non-activity of the excretory functioning of liver through the forces as is shown in the organs themselves, affecting the condition produced, as is shown high hepatics. The kidneys, inclined to be rather submerged in their activity then in the proper elimination through the emunctories there.
5. To give the correct balance in the system and to produce the correct vibration necessary to overcome this condition we would take that in the system that would give the correct balance to this portion of the body. We would take eight (8) ounces of rain water. To this add six (6) ounces of Common dried garden sage. Reduce to one (1) pint, strain, then take eight (8) ounces of rain water. To this add four (4) ounces of Yellow Root. Reduce by simmering, not boiling, to one (1) pint. In these, too, we would add, that is these mixed together, add four (4) ounces of rain water, then add one (1) ounce of Sarsaparilla Root, one (1) ounce Black Haw Bark and one (1) ounce of Elder Flower. Reduce all of this by simmering, not boiling, to six (6) ounces, strain, while warm add six (6) ounces of grain alcohol with two (2) drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in it. The dose would be two (2) teaspoonfuls three (3) times each day.
6. Let the diet be those preferably of vegetable forces than meat. Not too much of sugar of any kind, only that produced in vegetable force. Do that. [4303]. We are through.
