TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find there are some abnormal conditions in this body that may be corrected. There are some conditions that are abnormal that to this body have become the normal condition. The abnormal forces have to do with the elimination in the system and the functioning of organs rather than organic conditions.
2. Now these are conditions as we find in this body, Mrs. [4819] we are speaking of, present in this room.
3. First, in the blood supply in the body we find the circulation in the hepatics too deep-seated or high circulation, but below normal in pressure. The numbers of red blood cell forces below the normal, the blood itself carrying some of the poisons that should be eliminated through channels of the trunk portions of body. The capillary circulation and elimination through these channels below the normal. Hence, the condition as we find in the capillary at time of the body feeling as cold and hot sensation in various portions of the body - see? In the white blood supply we find an over normal force in the system attempting to create that through the lymphatic forces to overcome conditions in the system. Hence, about the lymphatic centers, especially in the joints in the extremities, we find acute pain at times - see? such as in the forearm and knees at times - see? The system attempting through the lymphatic forces carrying the leukocyte of the nature of disturbance force to give that elimination to carry the circulation that would become poisons that are not eliminated through capillary forces of expiratory or perspiration gland - see? This same we find at times in the third and fourth lumbar region. Hence, the tired, dull feeling across the hips and back at times - see?
4. In the nerve force we find the cerebro-spinal nerve centers very good for the condition for this body, through mental force has and does control itself well. In this we find the sympathetic in its juncture with cerebro-spinal in many centers engorged in size and functioning so that at times the sensation to the physical is of along the spine a tingling force - see? This then gives the over active force in sympathetics and in the sensory system find expression in the condition as produced in the organs of the sensory system. This then we see is more of a sympathetic condition than of defect in organs themselves. The weak circulation, or poor elimination, giving then the direct cause of condition in sensory organs. That is, the ear, the eye and nose at times - see?
5. In the functioning of organs themselves the brain force of this body, as we have given, good. The mental forces and powers of the body above the ordinary.
6. The throat, larynx and organs of the sensory system, as we have given. Lungs good, for conditions as has existed in the blood supply. No organic conditions, but the cells themselves show the deficiency in red blood numbers. The heart action in keeping with the low pressure. Hence, the respiration and heart beat at times are abnormal, being at times above and at times below the normal beat, but no organic trouble, produced by refractory nerve reflex and by condition of elimination in system. The digestive tract we find in this and the organs of digestion the seat of the trouble rather in spleen and liver.
7. In the spleen we find the destructive forces of red blood cells used as in this condition we find the right end engorged, and the left tending toward hardening condition. In the liver proper, in the excretory functioning becomes nil at times, produced by the hardened condition. Not hard, but hardened condition of the organ itself, so that the emunctories, with the extra amount of lymphatic forces, as is shown, produce the strain on the system. The blood not being cleansed properly, though the body functioning through sheer will force, gives the counter action to the organ itself.
8. In the intestinal digestion, or that taking place after being taken up by secretions from the pancreas, duodenum, the liver and Peyer's gland becomes in the acid rather than the alkaline state. This gives, then, the high hepatic circulation, the trouble with the elimination through the excretory forces of the liver and kidneys. Hence, the condition as has become the normal force to this body, by the condition produced there from outside forces.
9. The kidneys themselves not acting as they should at all times. At times over-active. Again the forces are returned in the system to be thrown off through the action of the liver in its state and the feces itself. That is, the intestinal force, see? as is taken by the action through the lower intestinal tract, or that of the colon itself - see? The organs of the pelvic regions are better than they have been in times past. This we find by the action of the system in the false pelvic cavity itself.
10. To give the relief to the body would be to give that to the system that would give the vibration necessary to make the equalization of the excretory and the secretive forces in the digestional tract, the liver and hepatic circulation giving new vibration to the blood supply in the body so that more oxygen would be supplied to the trunk portion of the body itself. We would take this into the system: To one gallon of rain water we would add:

    Wild Cherry Bark...........2 ounces,
Yellow Dock Root...........2 ounces,
Calisaya Bark..............2 ounces,
Prickly Ash Bark...........2 ounces,
Yellow Root................2 ounces,
Elder Flower...............1 ounce.

    Reduce by simmering, not boiling, to one quart. Strain while warm, add six ounces of grain alcohol, with three drams of Balsam of Tolu dissolved in it.
11. The dose would be two teaspoonsful four times each day, one half hour before meals, and at bed-time. Be sure to eat the meals, but not of meats, but rather of gruels and vegetable forces - see?
12. For the condition that becomes acute in the arms and limbs, spine and hips and back at times, we would take, after this has been taken, this:
13. Chloride of Gold 15 grains to 15 ounces of distilled water, 8 grains of bicarbonate of soda. Mix well. This dose would be 15 drops in half glass of water twice each day. Take between meals, and while this is in the system, for two minutes only use the Violet Ray force. Do that.
14. By the time the first quantity of medicinal properties is taken, the body will find the change entirely in the system, and by the time six treatments are taken of the gold and Violet Ray the condition in the extremities and in the spine will be removed. The Violet Ray may be used to ease pain while other properties are being taken, but not as treatment until the gold is taken in the system - see?
15. We are through.
