TEXT

1. EC: Now, we find this body very good in many ways, yet there are abnormal conditions and these may bring destructive forces to the body without their correction. Now, these may be corrected and with this correction the body be better given to the better conditions in the physical plane.
2. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, from the physical. First:
3. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, we find the blood supply being contaminated with the toxins as are not eliminated in the system, and these bring to the functioning organs those conditions that become to the organ thus affected an extravagant condition in its functioning, as is seen in that of the lymph producing conditions in the body. In the white blood supply then we have over-abundant of these, with a subnormal supply in red blood forces.
4. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, we find conditions that are not of the nature that centers are specifically affected, though many are involved in the conditions, and in many of the centers and plexuses we find the engorged or plethora effect about these centers, as we find in the nerve plexus of the hypogastric and pneumogastric centers; these also in this condition giving the extravagant functioning of organs that are affected by these conditions, producing at times the subnormal pressure in blood and again the abnormal flow in the capillary circulation.
5. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF ORGANS, brain force very good.
6. Functioning of the organs of the sensory system taxed, until we find at times they become exaggerated in their manifestations or expressions in the physical.
7. Throat, lungs, larynx very good, though some show of that as produced in the lymphatic circulation, especially in the secretions as is given off to be eliminated.
8. In the digestive tract we find the plexus about the lower end of the stomach shows how that acidosis in a form exists in the system by this overflow of the juices to the system in th pyloric end of stomach, producing in the duodenum and in the pancreas an excess of secretions, and gives halitosis to the body proper, and in the upper digestive system of the intestines the toxins are absorbed in the system, and with this same strain apparent in the hypogastric, the taxing of the kidneys and of the excretory system in the emunctories as they form the elimination, all these become the depression to the system. In the intestinal tract, where we have the absorption of these toxins, as in the region of the Peyer's gland. Hence to the right side we have these strains, and this in the region of the right ovary and of the vermiform appendix itself. This region shows some strain. The condition in ascending and transverse colon then being one of lack of secretions, as in the upper portion over secretions, for inflammation then partakes of the condition and we have the extravagant reaction in capillary and in hepatic circulation.
9. R E L I E F: Then, to bring the better for these conditions: While this may be removed by being operated upon in these portions, and by the removal of those glands that form the extra secretions in the system, absorption and elimination would be the greater for the body, and would give the better conditions to the whole system.
10. We would then take this into the system. To one gallon of rain water, we would add:

    Sarsaparilla Root.....2 ounces,
Burdock Root..........2 ounces,
Yellow Dock Root......1 ounce,
Black Root............1 ounce,
Calisaya Bark.........1 ounce,
Elder Flower..........4 ounces.

11. Reduce by simmering, and while warm add 10 grains of Sanguinaria and 2 grains (this is powdered of course) Podophyllum. Strain and add 3 drams of Balsam of Tolu cut in 6 ounces of grain alcohol. The dose would be teaspoonful four times each day, before meals and before retiring.
12. Keep the system in condition that elimination may be effected in the body, and for the condition in intestines using enemas, low and high, that the colon may be cleansed from toxins that may be formed in the system in elimination; taking exercise in the open air, but not strenuous to any portion of the body.
13. Do that and we will find we will bring this body to the normal conditions, [4634].
