TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now the abnormal conditions as we find in this body have to do with the distribution of the cellular rebuilding forces and the lack of blood forces to supply those to the system, it being by certain conditions expressed in the system by fluctuation from the normal distributed forces in this way and manner. Now these are the conditions as we find in this body here. In the blood forces or circulation we find it deficient in red blood cellular forces - that is - the hemoglobin is deficient in the component parts rebuilding the fatty portions in the body. The lack of sufficient rebuilding forces causes many of the nerves to become anematized in their functions, so instead of being one overly nervous they become languid, and only at times when we have a reaction do the nerve forces show themselves more in a languid condition over the muscular forces of the body with the contraction of the nerve forces as produced by lack of the condition in the body to rebuild all of those portions in the body.
2. The blood does not produce temperature often in the body - that is - heat centers are not overcharged from the condition in the blood - the blood not carrying bacilli from the condition of the heat in forcing, or the temperature in forcing, streptococcus in the blood, displays pus forming a bacilli that would be carried or expressed without those quantities of those in the blood supply forces.
3. In the nervous system we find about the lumbar region more of a tautness of the muscular forces bearing on the nervous condition than on any other portion in the body; those around the lumbar are taut while those along the lower dorsal are shown to be lax rather than at tension. The effect of the nervous forces and its laxness in the dorsal region produces a condition that we find through the digestive tract, and the condition as we find that is not always good throughout the secretive and the secretions needed throughout the intestinal tract, so that we have auto-intoxication often in the system produced by the lack of those being carried from the system, hence they all affect the blood supply forces except in forces of rebuilding material needed in those reflected nerve forces that produced the condition through the intestinal tract.
4. The action of the functioning organs themselves we find are very good, the brain forces are fairly well balanced for the whole body, there is no perfect accordance between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous system throughout the dorsal region on account of the laxness, hence, we find the same effects will easily tire in the lumbar or through the pelvic regions those that show opposite forces or action through certain periods of those in the body here. The tendency and predisposition in the action of the lung forces is not in good conditions; the blood supply has much or more to do with those we would find in other things in the system - this does not necessarily mean that we would have or do have an organic condition in the intestinal tract, hence, prescience may be made against those conditions with the present condition existing as we find there.
5. Through the digestive tract we find the condition is expressed both through the blood forces and the nervous forces, and we find intestinal indigestion as we have given. While the action of the forces through the stomach are good yet the reflection from those is not good. The function of the liver as we find shows the effect of toxins in the system as at certain times when the action of the kidneys in their action over the system shows the presence of toxins being taken in the system - hence, tired, feeling heavy at the feet, mostly aching along the lower part of the sciatic nerve. All of this may be corrected in the system if taken in time, if allowed to run on most of the effect is going to be an abnormal condition in those to the predisposition we have found here, and with the action of the toxins and the predisposition of the weakness through the lung forces, it would be bad, so it would be well to correct this rather than allow it to run on in the system.
6. We would take into the system at the present time:

   Wild Cherry Bark.....2 ounces,
Blackhaw Root........2 ounces,
Snake Root...........2 ounces,
Yellow Dock Root.....2 ounces.

   This is to be put into 1/2 (one-half) gallon water, rain water preferably and reduced by simmering to 1 quart, strain and while warm add to this Balsam of Tolu 6 drams with 4 ounces of alcohol and 1 grain of Heroin.
   Dose would be 1 teaspoonful 3 times a day.
7. After this has been taken in the system then begin with exercise that will strengthen the muscles and nerves of the pelvic region, and by using the vibrator strengthen the muscles in the lower dorsal to the upper cervicals. After taking the exercise to the hips, the pelvic organs, bending forward in a circular motion, then use the vibrator, preferably the sponge.
8. If we fill do this we will find we will gain strength and remove those conditions as we found in the body here, that of Miss [5677].
9. We are through.
