TEXT

1. GD: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body. You will answer any questions I will ask you regarding this body.
2. EC: Now, we find there are abnormal conditions with this body. There are some conditions abnormal to other bodies that to this body have become normal conditions for this body. Many of the effects, however, of these conditions may be benefited and assisted to function nearer the normal.
3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body that need this correction and manner of correcting. These, then, are conditions regarding these as we find in this body, Mrs. [4696], we are speaking of, present in this room. First:
4. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, we find this below the normal in its functioning. The numbers in red blood and white blood cellular forces below the normal, yet the organs that function to supply the necessary elements to meet the needs of the body are in exaggerated functioning in some portions.
5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in this we find the body in sympathetic nerve action below normal. In cerebrospinal nerve reaction taxed in many centers. This produced by the conditions as exist in the system that have become constitutional conditions to be met by the system in its extravagant or exaggerated functioning through nerve forces and through condition in blood supply and of organic conditions.
6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, in brain forces very good.
7. In the functioning organs of the sensory system, these through the sensory organism function nearer normal in the reactions of sensory organism and cerebrospinal.
8. Throat and bronchials show reaction of the blood supply and conditions as exist in lungs proper and in heart's functioning.
9. In the lungs we find the reaction of conditions as is shown through the body in its functioning.
10. Heart's action then near nominal for conditions as exist in the body.
11. In the digestive system in the lower portions of the stomach proper, we find the greater seat of functional conditions in the body. This produced by the hydrochloric reaction in the pyloric orifice of stomach proper, and the effect as is produced on the rest of the system brings the abnormal functioning of the liver, pancreas and the ducts that produce the digestive system in the upper digestion. Pancreas then shows the overtaxing of the body, as does the lacteal ducts and the lacteal flow of new blood is extravagant in its functioning, producing a plethora condition and a taxing of the alimentary canal in its functioning of the system, especially through hypogastric and pneumogastric plexuses. Hence distresses as are caused by the system, especially in the sympathetic nerve system deadened the conditions in this portion of the organism.
12. In the reaction then through kidneys and the hepatic circulation, these we find abnormal in the condition as has been produced and as shown in the system.
13. Then, to bring the better conditions to this body for those reactions of the body, we would take these properties in the system as the stimulus to assist the body in gaining the correct incentive for its functioning.
14. To 8 ounces of Peptotol, or Simple Syrup, we would add:

    Fluid Extract Stillingia...........1/2 ounce,
Fluid Extract Yellow Dock Root.....1/2 ounce,
Fluid Extract Poke Root.............10 minums,
Fluid Extract Black Snake Root.....1/4 ounce,
Fluid Extract Wild Cherry Bark.......1 ounce,
Elder Flower.......................1/4 ounce.

15. Shake solution well together before the dosage is taken, which should be taken four times each day, before meals and before meals and before retiring.
16. The diet should consist principally of those properties that carry little of the fats but much proteids and carbon, as we would have in green vegetable forces and in brown or whole wheat bread. These we find will bring the better conditions for body. Little sugars save of beet or honey. These may be taken for the system in quantity sufficient to add the proper amount of alcohol in digestion.
17. Do that.
18. (Q) How much should the dose be at a time?
    (A) Teaspoonful.
19. (Q) Will one quantity of this prescriptions be sufficient?
    (A) Should be at least two and one-half quantities taken, depending upon the diet and the care of the system. Necessary to keep the eliminations as near normal, even though enemas may be necessary to take, for we do not desire to create by increasing the eliminations through the stomach and upper intestines by overcharging the colon. Hence necessary to keep the eliminations, though they would resort to even oil enemas. When such would be given, use small quantity of Usoline or Nujol.
20. (Q) Any further suggestions regarding the improvement of this body?
    (A) Do this and we will find we will build up the body in its resistive forces, relieving the pressure as is produced by the condition in the lower portion of stomach and in the liver.
21. We are through for the present.
